    It Aussie food, thier beer is similar were cheapness is more important than quality.

    Probably something to do with Kangaroo excrement.

    Paint stripper is a bit more tangy.

    Kiley Minouge is not a true representative of Australian women.

    Dame Edna Everage is, understandably massive quantities of cheap beer needs consuming before copulation can be even thought of. And that would be if there was no attractive roos around.

    Ive been there 3 times.

    I agree completly. It is sad we don't see them more often. But for some reason glosy magazines and uninformed journalist (an oximoron) do not even know them, or never tryed them, and designer very often do not mention them to customers.
    As for engines while in my boatyard in Spain we installed Kelvin in fishing vessel and pleasure vessel. What a beautiful engines, extremely reliable, easy to maintain, and I think, a superbe design. That was long time ago, I hope they still in business. I installed also some Gardner, quite a treat, but I don't think they are in business anymore.
    By the way a customer of mine just find an old Sabb 30hp 2JHVP with CPP brand new, in box, original, to be used for his schooner which still in design stage.
