By the look of the windscreen, the breathing rate picked up a wee bit there, going by the condensation on it :lol:

Na Dave, when you are that deep there is no fresh air coming through the vent pick ups, only water.
Hence the reason the sceens will condensate. It is a real hardcase look inside the cab when water pours out the dashboard vents

The engine didn't sound the same at the end than what it sounded like before doing the cross.

Serves him right if he's done some damage. :roll:
