Did you mull over it, or just see it and decide on the spot you were going to own it?

Boat= a hole in the water that you throw money into.
I suppose a wind powered vessel is a bit different.

off topic, there was a pommy car of 3ltrs, that ran a pair of 2" SU's. the needle and jet from one of those would be an ideal baseline to start from on an A15.

I have a book (somewhere) with lists of needle and jets from different model SU equiped cars.
