I dropped a pair of pliers whilst replacing a fuel hose in the engine bay a couple of days ago - they dropped straight into the skirt feed port and then into the skirt itself. It was late so I thought I'd try to manipulate it back to the drain port to retrieve - but, of course, completely forgot by the next day!. Anyway, after an 11 mile cruise leg I pulled up on an beach and a pair of pliers appeared on the shore! Couldn't get much luckler than that !

WISE move IMHO!

You can edit a post within 60mins of posting it to fix typos, etc.  You can't delete posts (if you have a good reason to do so then contact a moderator who can do it for you).

Had a look this morning and walked away, it was from a corporate venture so used by novices and crashed twice and badly repaired the front had been bodged up with I assume a Isopon P40 kit, the top deck wasn't too bad but as soon as you lift the skirt there's nothing bonded to anything.  The other damage was on the side ( see picture), again looks like it's slid into a post or whatever and that repair didn't look to healthy either. I didn't look at anything else as that was enough put me off, I dare say you can repair it properly but why (knowingly) buy a headache when for an extra 1K you can buy one that's sorted.
