Great feedback from our friends at Ladybird Boat Trust. "Our passenger season has now finished, but for the last 2 months or so of it, the boat has been rattling and banging very badly. Surprisingly, no passengers complained. We did wonder at one point if something extreme might fall off or completely fail, but luck was on our side and we made it to the end of the season. For a number of years, Clements Engineering have been repairing our propellor each time boat is lifted out of water. This year was a bit different as the MCA insisted on seeing the shaft. Feeling certain they would condemn it, (even though there was not much wrong with it), we requested a replacement shaft, which was manufactured in good time. On top of this we had a problem with the lower bearing of our rudder. Paul met me at Westview Marina, Earith and took the rudder and bearing away with a view to manufacturing a replacement bearing. The rudder also needed some work on the lower shaft as it had become quite damaged. We are geographically very fortunate to be relatively close to Clements Engineering, but even more fortunate to receive such high standards of engineering and customer support from Clements and in particular Paul. Thank you so much for all you and your team do for us." #clementsengineering #rudderrepairs #boatpropellers #sternshaft #britishmanufacturing #canalboat #riverboat #charityboattrip #boatprop #boatrepair
