  1. Believe that is all about the class of the boat when built, different classes to different standards.
  2. Know of one fitted to a boat at the owners request and hoping to see it fired up soon and will comment on it then.
  3. A tale of my sisters two dogs that put a smile on my face. One was a corgi cross called Toby and the other a terrier cross called Jack, now Toby would follow me around like a best friend whilst Jack just did whatever he wanted. So, on one visit from them I am in my room doing end of week paperwork with Toby sat on my lap and the door to the room is half shut, half open when Toby leaped off my lap and ran to door and slammed it shut in Jacks face who I only glimpsed as the door was closing and proceeded to sit down against the door to stop the "intruder" from entering. Boy did I laugh.
  4. Haha, I sense a leading question, however I have been on such a boat and in a flooded underground plantroom where we needed the services of a diver.
  5. Cars have far more electrickery with chips to control all manner of things so the man hours to replace these items often means such vehicles are written off! Nobody said it was as easy as wiping down cushions and a quick spray around with a fabric refresher but I would think an industrial wet vac and a steam cleaner is a good start.
  6. The unnamed yard will recover, repair and have it ready to go quicker than you think all under their insurance Andrew.
  7. As a mod on a different type of forum I fully agree with what you say grendel until you get to the part I quote above. People should be allowed to question and debate posts, this I believe will make posters choose their words more carefully.
  8. Absolutely nothing wrong with having them and they have their uses however some here do seem to think that they effect their manliness.
  9. No hose pipe ban here KP and plumbers tape is known as PTFE tape but to be honest you shouldnt really need it.
  10. I guess it may come down to how long the lease is for.
  11. I had no idea MM had spent any time in the chiinese deltas!
  12. And the Kings Head in Blofield just down the road (?)
  13. Aye, the old cook/chef B has returned as from tomorrow.
  14. The price of diesel has dropped slightly in the last couple of weeks but any yard selling will have to hold off passing on any reduction if they refilled their tank before the price dropped or take a loss.
  15. Perhaps it does but it is not always easy to turn a blind eye when somebody makes subtle or snide comments, then there is the added problem of the writen words being misinterpreted of course.
  16. Isn`t it really more about the smell and the effect of fumes inducing headaches and sore eyes.
  17. You could have fun with one of these little babies, three cameras and night vision, silent and so small. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/what-are-black-hornets-the-cutting-edge-micro-drones-donated-to-ukraine/ar-AA118H09?ocid=EMMX&cvid=519f1118bc884a5ebcbc007f51624664
  18. If you live in a house then be sure to turn off the landing light before going to sleep.
  19. Would the hire yard need to tell them everything. Might be good for the engineer during call out but dangerous to tell a hirer. Just a thought.
  20. Seems somebody was having a bad day. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11138853/Cirencester-man-71-arrested-threatening-drone-pilot-air-rifle.html
