Tomorrow is the start of the 59th running of the 3 Rivers Race, 100 sailing boats from 14ft to 40ft . Sailing a course of 50 miles which includes lowering your mast 4 times to get under 3 bridges. And you have 24 hours to do it. The record is about 8 hours, the worst only 13 boats finished.
It's classed as the toughest inland waterway race in Europe the 3rd toughest mass participation event in the UK. Here's a video clip which shows an introduction the start of the race and near the end going through Potter Heigham bridge. I'm in there somewhere, but this year I'm one of 100+ volunteers helping to run the race.. Must go time go collect the radio gear.

I did, it seems to be holding on. I checked the rear one too. It does need UJs but I think it will be ok for Sunday
(I have two in my spares box just in case!!)

Drove mine today. Added some more speed stripes

Drove mine to it’s weekly storage lair and slammed the door on it.....

....hate the bloody thing.

Stripped off the vinyl headlining cleaned and glued it back ready for installation, it's ok but not my best work.

@Ironstrike

Did the mot centre run out of paper?

I don't think I did that badly, 3 Do not drive until repaired, 8 repair Immediately, 2 repair as soon as possible and 6 advisories...could have been worse, I could have been driving a Freelander

I did chuckle when I checked your mot online.

Removed seatbox covering after spending ages getting the seats and cubby out. One seat bolt had a nut on it on top of the diesel tank. Awkward! Also the cubby is bolted to a safe that fits under the seat box. (Being a soft top it's the only place to leave valuables) Awkward again. Once everything was out, stripped the old matting and fitted a nice new genuine matting. Brightens up the interior!

Put the front headlining back up, if you squint it doesn’t look too bad.

CB all wired in now. I decided to check ground resistance from the antenna mount to the chassis. Got 0.3ohms
Added a short wire from the mount to a bolt that fixes the roof to the side panels like so...


And got the reading down to zero ohms. That’ll do for that,then!

And then......WTF!!!........


This truck was FFR in her MOD days. You’d think she’d like to have a some comms installed just for old times sake but, NO! She’s has become a pampered, stubborn, ungrateful old bitch in her retirement!!

When the rain stops I need to check my rear wheel bearings as she’s developed a whine (and the Mrs hasn’t even been in the landrover since bonfire night

Could also do with rotating my tyres.

Earlier this week, she got an oil and filter change, new fuel filter and new air filter.
