What i meant was it was just parked on our road for a week nothing to do with they dowty jets. He drove it down from basingstoke because it was the amphib thing on the thames that year and he wanted to see if it worked. it floated but because it only had one jet it would'nt really go anywhere thats why it was winched into the water off a land rover.Im also trying to find pics of a friends red stalwart when he swam it to the isle of wight.Also the trip is on vhs n we hope to get it put on a dvd so hopefully post it on here soon.
