procede with caution if you go to mg duffs website you can enter the info to tell you which to use im dealing with a boat at the moment which had aluminium anodes fitted last year the boat spent the whole time in the north sea the anodes were gone much faster than zinc that was fitted the previous year !!!! could cost more than the few quid saved on anodes

i would go for some high quality fixings as the supplied screws were of an inferior quality stainless

The only other points to consider that have not been mentioned is availability of petrol quayside,humping jerry cans about is not fun especially the amounts big outbourds consume,and which would you rather sit on 200 litres of unleaded or 200 litres of diesel from a combustibility point of view ???

300 HP in an offshore 25 on a leg wow that's going to take some catching

Was there coolant in the bilge below the engine if yes then there must be an external leak on the engine/pipework if no sign of coolant it has to go somewhere so either into oil into exhaust with raw water or even into the calorifier check the water coming out of the hot tap !!!!!

have fitted a couple of the ait 2000 which seem to be reasonable just bear in mind you need a vhf areial (avoid splitters) also they come with their own gps antenna

shhhb dont tell everybody itl ruin my reputation !!!!!

ref the mussel beds the plaice dont seem to be about in any numbers because the mussels died off (disease)nothing to do with the trawlers hopefully the mussels should re populate in the next year or so

flojet diaphram type but make sure you fit an inline filter it makes a big diference one the life of the pump

looking at the photo montage the telescopes on the seafront will do a roaring trade as people try to spot the so called "eyesore" or "blight on the durassic coast"

a non return valve in the fuel line can help as when left the fuel runs back into the tank hence needing to be bled again

its not unfashionable or outdated etc its retro

"300" some people have far to much to say for themselves !!!!!

ock ayy we were out from cullivoe with john keggie "oberon" 07793120958 we stayed at the baltasound hotel no frills but good and comfortable travel was drive to aberdeen catch the northlink ferry to lerwick (12hr crossing)drive to unst its about 600 miles , the locals are great freindly lot i cannot speak highly enough of the place

just to quash the accusations i dont fish anymore !!!! ive just returned from a few days fishing from unst . amazing does not come close to describing the fishing up there . our tally included ling to 40LB , cod to 27LB, pollack to 15LB, coalfish to 18LB along with torsk haddock and whiting , we tried for turbot but conditions were unfavourable besides we were plagued with double figure cod pinching the baits . i have never seen anything like it 8 to 10LB coalfish being attacked by ling on the way up !and in two full days fishing in 300+ft of water i lost no tackle only having to change lures due to fish damage !!!!

that was uncalled for boss !!!!
