Perhaps I should have added that the only way back to our hotel was back up the steep hill, this took 3 attempts. The first it promptly jumped out of first gear, the second I learnt to balance the amount of power versus my left hand holding it in gear only to meet a modern coming down with no passing place, the third time we made it.
Many years later when I fitted a 4 speed box in an RN I chose a 2 synchro box.
