David its an early 580C very early I'd say as the original registration number was on an old 'J' plate (1969-1970) well the 580C was launched in 1970 this particular machine is up for grabs if anybody wants it, she's old and needs a bit of TLC which you would expect from a machine of that age, the Ford engine is sweet and sounds like a 'little sewing machine' no rattles or harshness.
If anybody is interested contact Richard Gould of Hymac Parts and Service.

Oh yes she is fitted with a waterways two piece boom so plenty of reach.
