well its easier and less hastle if you get someone to collect it for you. You could prob bargin in the low loader if you were going to buy it, would be £100/150 for boat then? just guessin havin been on the boat in a while.

My thoughts as well how can you get the RAC to take you home with no engine

I suppose you could say it fell out while you where driving it
