Talking to the BSS examiner today he mentioned that all Fire extinguishers on boats should now be in date within 5 years during the examination. Can anyone point me in the diection of where it says that to confirm it.?? My 3 are still well into the green part but he says that does not matter,its now the Manufacturers date.. I'll have to check mine.

Check you PM box John have sent you one..

Well they seem to have stopped it on the A149 Barry, even without being switched on.
The first year we've had there without any major accidents, and everyone who drives along it regularly has noticed the dramatic reduction in speeders.
Well i have lived nearby for almost 4 years and don't recall any major accidents on the A149,But i have heard of many on the A47 which in my opinion is a much more dangerous road,especially near the Blofield turnoff coming from Norwich where it goes into one lane i have had a few near misses here i can tell you,why do they have to be in front of you at the cost of a near miss.

barry it not just norfolk mate, we run a small haulage firm in essex and travel all over the contry and the standard of driving is dreadfull, everyone needs to be somwhere yeaterday... biggest problem i see on a daily basis is selfish driving the im all right jack f**k you attitude. seen it cause so many accidents its un real. its not more cameras we need, its us as drivers need to plan our routes better and allow enough time for the journey..
Andy if you read my post i mention all of england,and yes your right some drivers seem to want to commit harry carry,speed is definately a killer along with stupidness and no thought for anyone else,if people who do this knew how painfull it was being in a crash they would not do it, i know from experience and its not nice.

well it should cut through the odd wave but not drift sideways while trying to moor.
there are also plans afoot for a planing hull.....
Yes,very nice Clive but will it go under ALL the bridges?

Lets face i have driven all over England for years and have seen many a stupid driver pulling out in front of cars,overtaking on bends and hills and at speed,driving at 70 mph plus in torrential rain and Fog,AND no amount of speed cameras will stop this from happening.People will be killed all over England and no cameras will stop this.And since i moved up to Norfolk in the last 3 years my Insurance went up (i asked the Company why and he said because Norfolk has more accidents than elsewhere - not confirmed) and driving in Norfolk i have seen so many near misses its getting frightening to drive here you just don't know what people are going to do anymore there actions are so random..

Reading the document it looks like we will pay slightly more for the sulphur free diesel and bigger chance of getting fuel bug if not regurlarly filled up. This apparently does not effect sea going marine users which seems to me to defeat the object if they are still going to put in sulphur diesel.Bit one sided if you ask me thats if i've read it right. It must concern older broads type engines which have been using sulphur diesel for 20 years plus as it could effect there engine seals etc.

Are you bringing your boat up here again?
Yes,John,Hopefully.. cannot worry about the wind too much otherwise you'd never go out in this country if you did.You know what its like in heavy winds John don't you,you have been to sea like me for quite awhile so know what to expect.At least on the river you can moor up somewhere and have a drink of something.

So I know I'm opening up a big can of worms on the sea boat front but lets have some open debate... Birchwood vs Sealine
Lets negate the already obvious point that Birchwood are no longer trading and make this an open for and against slot - I'm really curious to guage people's opinion here!!!
Has to be Sealine Gavin,as i had one and think they are the best going alongside Fairline.Great selection of boats for all people.

Mrs O and I might pop in and say hello at some point during the event.
Regards
Steve
You'd be quite welcome,Steve.
