  1. There are loads of brackets on amazon. My bracket is a caravan one which is multi directional and detachable,its part number is PB138 it's 27 99. You can also get additional base plates which can be fitted to other parts of the boat, these allow different viewing areas at the press of a spring catch. A couch potato's dream.

  2. Have you considered phenolic plywood or buffalo board as its sometimes branded? We use it for flooring in trailers and wagons in the transport industry. Good in the wet and road salt and wears well in high use conditions. Builders merchants usually carry stocks,if not, plenty on Tinternet thingy.

  3. If what iv`e shown so far is not quite what is required. There are two other pages of coils 7 pin, 13 pin some with wires at one or both ends. There are also sockets to fit the plugs into or you can get rubbolite junction boxes if you want wire only connections. The coil diameters can be 2 or 4 inch and they come in 3 or 4 metre lengths. Pm me if you need help.

  4. Hi MM, have you considered using an electrical 7 pin coil normally used by commercial vehicle articulated units which connect up to HGV trailers. They are robust and as cheap as chips. They can also be fitted by any local auto electrician and can be viewed at, All truck & trailer parts electrical coil pages. Sorry can`t post a link at the moment until  someone comes home that knows how to.

  5. Hi PaulMargaret. Just one addition to the information given so far. If your boatyard is Richardsons they do an extra on your booking form which is "undercover parking." If your concerned about security it only costs a fiver for the week and the car is locked away each night, hope this helps, enjoy your holiday.

  6. If your looking in the second hand market, The caravan centre at Blaenavon have loads of used parts and may be able to help.The Caravan and motorhome club have a list of caravan breakers in a Pdf. Also, O`learys and Magnum caravan spares have loads of new spare parts which come from the caravan and motorhome manufacturers end of production lines. Always heed the safety warnings that have been mentioned above. Hope this helps.

  7. You will become a social outcast, or a billy no mates. That`s what I found out when when I asked a similar question last year. My suggestion of bringing a widebeam narrowboat to the broads was met with much sucking of teeth. oh hum :default_biggrin:

  8. The Caravan Club are open from 4th july and are taking bookings. All the Norfolk and suffolk sites will be open, so would expect the Broads to be full as well. You have been warned !

     

  9. Hi Mark, if your after the red tubing look at the TTC trailer parts catalog, they do rolls of black red or yellow air brake pipe in different sizes. Its available through any local truck parts supplier and truckers never pay over the odds.
