BARLOWORLD is an international industrial brand management company that represents many of the world's leading brands, including PERKINS. BARLOWORLD was contacted due to the fact that ST-433 originally had 2 x PERKINS S6M 130bhp Marine Diesels installed, which needed replacements.

BARLOWORLD have shown interest in assisting us with replacement engines to ensure that only the best was made available for the Seaplane Tender. Details of their assistance will be published shortly.

SAAF Museum at Ysterplaat, Cape Town offered space for the ST at their Restoration Centre, where we could spend time restoring her. The expertise and mechanical know-how of the Museum and SAAF personnel involved would be invaluable.
