Hi Derek thanks for the mention in your post but must confess the electronic control board was developed as far as I know by Malcolm Beak and is available on the Paddleducks forum ,the problem I had with it was in the sensor shorting out after a few runs, Could also be a fault in my workmanship ,however I experimented with my own design of sensor (see attachment and so far this one has been very successful :-))
Cheers
John

Couldn't agree more ...she looks great O0
Looking at your image..... %) she must be returning to Circular Quay.......as according to my understanding, the aft funnel is for the boiler & the fwd funnel is a dummy water tank above the engine
So she always sailed backwards going to Manly & to Broken Bay {-) ............is this correct or inline with your research John?
