Holland-Shotly

well we nver made it to holland, mechanicaal falure, the autopilot drive shaft snapped half way through the journey, the only problem is I woke up at 3-30 for nothing, we diverted into shotly after the factors of continuing were weigd up with diverting, we should get a new drive belt on tuesday but I am doubtful. Got some pics but am too tired to put them on.
