    Tested the snorkel

    Went for tour through the vic high country last week. My daughter has uploaded a video she took on her ipod of one of the river crossings.
    pause at the 13 second mark.

    the water came in because I left the fresh air vents beneath the windscreen open. The heater system has its own water drain.

    Well done Phil... great vid.
    That looks distinctly like the crossing I drowned my old D2 in. We were coming from the other side and the river was even higher then.
    I only tried to cross because a deer hunter told us he'd been across twice. He came back while we were recovering and drove it.... his 'Lux was literally floating, his dogs on the tray were chest deep. Wish I'd seen him do it before I tried . It was a very stupid thing for him to do, he was just banking on floating onto some pebbles in the middle to get traction. I guess he made it and I didn't though.
