Sorry Mark it is, was parked on my drive for god knows how long then on the mainland for a year with a cover over it i beleive,

We both know it did have some rust on it when i brought it from you, just the sea air and metal do not get along....

I have already brought a bunch of stuff for it and and in the middle of getting more so maybe it will finally get done.
