Fixing the old Sailor radio PART 1 - "Not in too good a shape but making a bit of noise"

The old Sailor Radio on the PBO Project Boat is in need of some serious TLC. It’s been onboard the Maxi 84 since it was built in 1978, and has been water-damaged by a leak through the companionway. We’ve handed it to radio expert Rob Wells, and here's his verdict.

@@practicalboatowner Many thanks I have restored several of these radios now - I am looking for a VHF control unit C401 and cable for Sailor RT145 - Like your videos keep up the good work
