grumpy, was that hire boat from Pompei's in Mordialloc? Most of Jack's hire boats were fitted with simplex singles, but he had a couple with the twins in them. One of them, nicknamed the Patrol Boat is still down there, Leon now owns her, his son, as Jack passed away this time a few years ago. It gives out the most beautiful note when running right, and they are not easy to get that way. I love the engine, they are Australian made, in fact they are still made to this day in Sydney. One day I hope to find a twin and fully restore her, and fit her into a suitable vessel. Huge job, but I am still keen.
