A "summer" sale, in Britain ? Aint that an oxymoron ?

Better hurry if you want to take advantage of this offer - last time I checked, Summer in Britain was on a Tuesday, from 1:00 pm to 1:30 pm.

Hmmm ... Ronnie, you might just put us out of business!

Gordon, you are right - Summer in the UK only lasted a couple of hours and this year it arrived unexpectedly in the middle of April and caught us all out. Then the April showers (which didn't arrive in April) turned into rainstorms in June and July which flooded the country ... we were fortunate that Wren was about 12 feet above the flood level in the Dearne Valley, but neighbouring homes and businesses weren't so lucky.

No wonder nobody's flying. We've got a couple of customers who have put turbines in boats, they're the happy ones at the moment...

The floods in England have been on the news here in the US - glad to hear that Wren has escaped the worst...

We were very lucky - not only did the factory escape, but none of the staff's homes were affected.

The local pub (a few hundred yards along the road from the factory) didn't do so well ...

Glad to hear that you are keeping your head above water.

Will this sale be extended to your dealers, Or do I have to order direct from the USA to get the deal?

This may push me over the edge to go for the Gold and finish the Stingray build.

The sale is at the factory here and is primarily intended for UK customers, but dealers may also be prepared to give good prices.

Bidrseed2, I put 14 hours on a boomer/Mk2 and then switched to an SS. The difference is night and day, both combinations are great. More power and speed with the SS and close to the same fuel consumption. 10min Mk2 and 9min SS. Same weight. That MK2 is a jewel, find something fun for it!~).

HTH
