  4. Hi Mark, Indeed the thrusters toys have come in very handy indeed, including the ELECTRIC MUDWEIGHT My days of chucking that dollop of molten metal are now far gone lol Iain
  5. Frank, you have my sincerest apologies, it was but tongue in cheek. In that case get rid if it, its no use for performing marriage ceremonies I have only had two hire boats with the rail and found them a hindrance throwing out the mudweight. Iain

    Afternoon all, what's all this about the sedate cruising of the Norfolk Broads. the next sentence is UNPRINTABLE I leave you all to imagine what I am thinking. Well I put on my thinking cap and decided on a lovely short cruise today to Coltishall, spied two Kingfishers but sadly no picks of them. Anyway as I type the rain and hail is stoating aff the roof of the good ship BROADWAY2. We are tied up nice and cosey not a boat in sight. I am just about to send a MODS letter to the BBC Weather people. Oh BTW I left home to avoid the breezes, but instead get bloody full blown gales lol grrrrrrrrr.

  10. Hello all, some of this engines being on early, may have something to do with the new fangle dangled dashboards, no longer are there battery gauges, in stead we have an array of multi lights, Green,amber and red. However, half way down the amber lights is a notice saying RUN ENGINES. So this may be part of the reason you are hearing the early call of exhausts. I waited till 8.15am before I gave my engine a start. Iain
