Hi Guys (Jack & Sam), I work at East Cowes Marina, will put it in the car this evening. You can collect anytime, when I am at work.

Hi Steve , have managed to press out the 2 inserts and have got some one with the equipment to drill the 3 vertical holes. So if I can get the inserts back all should be OK.

Hi Bob it's Charlie s boat 834, and there are plastic inserts at each end. Thought that they were the normal thing.

Will look into it some more, will also try and get a picture to you.

Thanks Chris

The question is, is the plastic insert a push fit or what.

Thanks
