You do realise whoever wins pays the bill.

Robin cannot be that daft as he is not the only one bringing aTrader onto the broads, I’m sure he will be just fine.

If it completely fly by wire it will have a solinoid controlled fuel rack therefore no mechanical input possible.

A small update, The fuel tank layout has been diagnosed and now fully understood with no issues, underwater survey has also come back good.

Hot off the press, ‘Engine problems now seem sorted as they have extensively checked both positions today. Lots of jobs completed and only a few to do, rib tested and all works fine but one small disaster Robin has lost his glasses over the side so is currently working blind Doug.

I disagree ref the mooring as you may well be able to continue with the boats current mooring at least in the short term. There are plenty of free moorings around if you know where to look. Doug.

I also noticed the Life Boat was also called out today I'm sure all will become clear soon.

One showing in port as INDY. ?

Robin has some competition lol. Now the big boys want a bit of The Broads. ? Fabulous news for a place desperately in need of a boost. Hope it's the beginning of a new lease of tourism life for the place. EDP 24Like Page 13 hrs · Great Yarmouth is set for a tourism spending boost after it was confirmed cruise ships will be docking with hundreds of passengers at the town’s port.

Maybe they could do this one next. (Photo curtesy of C Slawson)

One being restored in the Wetshed at Rico’s.

I don’t really understand why you would have a centre tank that is lower than the main tanks if it does not supply fuel to the main engines, with the transfer cocks open it will always top the centre tank making the useable range significantly reduced.

If you go for Festool gear it comes with 3 years theft insurance, cost around the same as Makita.

I believe it’s only private craft now.

Looks a bit like the Ferro yacht that moors at the Norwich bridge end. If so there was a young family living on it in the summer.

I have the same problem so have followed the link and deactivated my account. Thanks for the heads up. Doug.

I’m planning on having Nipper out March /April this year for 3 weeks, approx cost £500 it will be antifouled /tar varnished along with any other work required underneath. The engine gets an oil change every year as it will attract moisture especially if it’s not used much new fuel filters and a new impeller approx cost £120. Doug.

I bought diesel in Beccles and was asked if I have a diesel heater, when I enquirered I was told it makes a difference to what I would be charged. Doug.

Did any one watch Michael Portillo Great railway journeys last night, it was Cromer to Cambridge with a stop at Wroxham for a sail on a Wherry. The bonus for me was my daughter getting off the train at Norwich (It was actually the train from Lowestoft) just hope she doesn’t get all lovey on me. Doug.

Make sure you shut him inside when you approach a mooring that way he will not try to jump off before you tie up. Doug.

No no water at Dilham. Doug.

Did anyone else watch Nile Rodgers and Chic last night. For people of a certain age it was the best thing that’s been on all over Christmas. Doug.
