    Air lock in the coolant/calorifer hoses I suspect, I assume it was fine before and the engine got up to temp ok.

    The engine temp was "probably" OK but I also have an electric/instrument issue and half way back I noticed the temp gauge was not registering!

     

    Edit to add, temp guage has always been OK and is not part of the instrument issue I have up til now. So in fact it's possible the engine did not get up to temp!

  2. I realise this is a common topic!

    After a gentle cruise from Potter to St Benets this week there was only just enough hot water for 3 of us to wash our hands for a picnic lunch. This doesn't seem right to me.

    I won't be able to go to the boat again until next week  but are there any specific things I should look at first.

    Broom 29 with shore power but no immersion heater and no inverter.

    Thanks in advance for any tips. 

  3. No, you're right... but it does include the mooring until the end of December, this year's toll and it still has a current BSS cert.

    I'm not associated with the seller, don't even know who they are but I thought it was interested as those who know what they're doing can work wonders with boats in need of tlc 🙂

    This morning  I went for a blood test at Hospital. While I was there Marina  went to the beach at Gorleston. Sea a bit rough, but sunny.Also saw one boat crossing  BW near Yarmouth. 

    Video thanks to Marina. 

    That's a nice Prom to walk at Gorleston, Gill and/or I have often whiled away an hour while the other was having inoculations /eye exams etc. at JPH 🙂

    no heating in the car

    Is it a Classic car Ian or is there a fault?

    Martham Car Centre are very good and reasonably priced. I've used them a few times now.

    Nope , as she was an Ocean 30 she was deemed not to be a Broom although many “Brooms” which are members were not built by themselves 

    Not exactly the esprit de corps one would hope for in a club..... 

  7. When we first bought Keleka I looked at the owners club but they operate a strict £25 per year or part of. Although they are perfectly clear about this up front there is also no online sign up and if you don't pay by cheque you have to contact them to arrange a BACS payment. I don't think of any of this as particularly unreasonable but it's all a bit last century for me.

    I'm sure it's a well run organisation but I can't be bothered with faff for what is basically a shared interest club which excludes non members from resources.

    Back in day I used to have couple of racing greyhounds. They used to sleep all the way to about a mile from the stadium and then some sort of instinct would have them up with their chins firmly planted on the driver's shoulders.

    We have a very 'not racing' greyhound Carole 🙂

    Without wishing to throw a broomstick into the witch hunt, might I be allowed to mention that the sign posted by the OP was put up by the previous management and might not be applicable under the new one?

    You'll never make it as a journalist MM, spoiling a good story with pesky facts 😁
