Thanks for your advice the oil was in it when we bought it 2 years ago as in the picture the boat was in France and bought it from Norfolk boat sales I know nothing about hydraulic drives that's why I'm asking I've not had any trouble with the boat until it started running hot last week someone on here told me to look at the oil cooler and they right I cleaned it out but the top cracked round the bolt hole I did a repair and the temperature dropped 10 degrees so thanks for the very good advice which I will be following Sent from the Norfolk Broads Network mobile app

In all the time I have hired boats on the broads since 1980 I've only been under the bridge 4 times mainly because of bad timing but I use to like the quietness above the bridge but plenty of other things to do now planning to come back as its a few years ago since we now have our own boat I seam to be missing out Sent from the Norfolk Broads Network mobile app
