Certainly a lot gamer than me.Did you hear the plywood cracking as he drove over it,i would at least had planks on top of the ply to distribute the weight a bit better.Looks like something the TOP GEAR boys could turn into a disaster segment :lol: .ian.

i was almost certain there was no way that raft would take the whole weight of that ditch witch, i was genuinely suprised. you need a lot of bottle to drive that on, even in the shallow.

ian, i can just imagine clarkson sticking an allegro on it with an outboard.....

I was waiting for the ropes holding the drums in place to give, a big "sproing" noise and the good ship witchditch to do a titanic and end up and make for the sea(river)bed :)

I have been accused of pursing "innovative" solutions to problems but I dont think Id want to try that personally :)
