SRowells Fletcher Arrowsport 155 GTO

[Eeyore]

So this has been used for 2 years now for wakeboarding and skiing. Not bad for £280 and a roll of cloud 9 carpet underlay! Here is a video of it in action! Few bits of me wakeboarding too!



Sun has been out so it has been the right time to get it ready for this season. I went to a boat jumble and bought a new steering wheel becauseraceboat.

Then I pressure washed off the mould from the blue hdi interior I had kept in storage specially to replace the old cloth one.


Rear seats went in with stainless steel bolts instead of screws



Then the old interior went in the bin!



I launched it with the 1.8 which meant most of the car was under water. Didnt have a battery so pikely had to take it out of the car and fit it whilst the boat was on the water. This engine is a 800cc 70hp 3 cylinder 2 stroke and always needs easy start... and when i say easy start I mean Lynx of the Dark Temptation Variety. For anyone wondering you can get through about £40 worth of fuel in about an hour. One time i spent £160 over a weekend. The engine didnt sound right so drove parallel to the beach before it stopped working. It runs on carbs which have had fuel and 2 stroke sitting in them for the best part of 6 months so next weekends job will be taking those apart and cleaning them
