snorkel fitted by then if i get the motivation to make a hole in the wing for it :D[/quote]

just get yourself a spare wing matey, think Box may have one as hes breaking a couple, then you can butcher that n spray it if it all goes well, if not least youll have one to put back on that doesnt look like poo!! :wink:

Colley, do you suggest a snorkel for the trip? whatelse would you suggest as your the strata expert on here! :lol: :thumbup:

We will be doing a a few ford crossings and strata is a river :lol:
The fords can be crossed without an snorkel and strata it self can also be done without a snorkel. HOWEVER like any river if we have some decent rain just before the weekend then a snorkel might be needed :wink:
I currently have no snorkle but have some pipe that runs from the air box up the inner wing :wink:
