Australian joke... Five Aussie surgeons from big cities are discussing what type of person makes the best patient to operate on. The first surgeon, from Brisbane, says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered." The second, from Perth, responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is co lour coded." The third surgeon, from Adelaide , says, "No, I really think librarians are the best! Everything inside them is in alphabetical order." The fourth surgeon, from Sydney chimes in: "You know, I like construction workers...Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over.' But the fifth surgeon, from Melbourne , shut them all up when he observed: 'You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains, and no spine... Plus, the head and the arse are interchangeable.’

hi chaps is there anybody who has ugly stic 1480 012 or 1480 015 2.4 metre that would like to sell please pm me with your number and ill get straight back to you thanks john

Pete, I haev one of these for JoJo, peace of mind when she is on a mooring: https://www.amazon.co.uk/XCSOURCE-GPS303-H-Anti-theft-Motorcycle-MA1014/dp/B01N0K7R0M I use the SMS GPS trackign function. However, it also will alert in the internal battery gets low - which would be a consequence of the 12v power source is failing. Also, there is an option for door open triggers - i am sure this coudd be used to monitor water level via a float switch , your existing switches. Power drain coudl be offset via a solar panel? I need to power mine up to ensure sim stays active - i shall measure the power drain. Food for thought perhaps? R

B@@@er.😟 No trip out for me today. After having the boat tilted on removal from the drystack to drain the small amount of water that collects via the bung I got to the boat and found both batteries flat not even enough to energise the starter motor with both in parallel.. The battery compartments had about 200mm of water showing in them. Highest I have ever seen normally no more than about 20mm showing at the bottom of the intermediate deck so I reckon the water must have found a way to drain the batteries. I pumped out 6 gorilla tubs worth of rain water and can only surmise it's getting in via breathers underneath the foredeck where the original fuel tank used to fit and a possible leaky inspection hatch in the deck. We did have a lot of rain earlier in the week. The main Bilge pump had no effect on reducing the level as the rainwater was contained within a higher deck level in the boat and needed pumping out separately (I only found this out today!!) Removed batteries and opened internal hatches/covers to get everything dried out. Back down Thursday to have a second attempt at Dangling and further leak investigations😥
