We are out on Saturday and may well go to Poole Patch. If we are not there we will be at Dancing Ledge but that is a fair way south west.

What boat is Lucy Lou 11?
Not sure that would work very well Trevor as bilge blowers are normally connected to the ignition system and therefore would only come on when you use the boat. If left on permanent they would drain the battery and even if on a timer would need to be on every day so would still drain the battery.
Of course if you plan to use Otter everyday then problem solved
Mike I think you will find the us regulations are in place because more users have petrol boats than over here hence the 4 minutes to clear fumes before starting a sparking engine
Trevor
My boat has bilge blowers that are on all the time the engine is running. Not sure whether their needed on a diesel boat but were fitted as standard when new so guess they are. I think they maybe needed more for getting air into the engine room rather than vacating it. In the winter months I use a dehumidifer to keep the mouldy growths away
