Let's talk about that mechanic quote... 💸😤 We DROVE Buster to the shop. The quote? $16,000 in repairs. For the brake booster and master cylinder alone? $3,800. After doing our own research, we're fixing the entire brake system ourselves for under $400. The "necessary repairs" they quoted? We can do ALL of it for less than $4K because there's nothing catastrophically wrong with our bus. This is why we're documenting The Buster Restoration Project - to show you that classic vehicle restoration doesn't have to break the bank. Sometimes mechanics see an old bus and see dollar signs. We see a project we can tackle ourselves. 🔧 Parts cost: ~$350 💰 Mechanic quote: $3,800 ✨ Satisfaction: Priceless 🔔 Subscribe to follow our budget-friendly restoration journey 💬 Have you dealt with outrageous mechanic quotes?

As always at this time of year here is a video of Sagitta ashore at the Multihull Centre, Millbrook Cornwall. As you can see, they really pack us in - yet there's always room for more! (why not play "Spot the monohull", I think there are four) Sagitta will have some jobs done this winter, mainly cosmetic, so not like last years marathon refit. Launching in mid March, ready for next seasons cruising and racing.
