    PLB

    Back of of 2012/early 2013 I bought an ACR ResQLink+ Personal Locator Beacon. Having popped on on JV today, Adam and I were talking safety and I thought "I need to give my PLB a test". So, now home with beer in hand I have run the test procedure. These units have a 5 yr+ life and will eventually need a battery change or replacement. When I bought it for just over £220 I asked how much the battery was, at the time it was so new, the approx cost was £40 less than a new unit. Not sure what the cost is these days for a battery, but I assume significantly less. I am please to say mine tested ok, it supports 60 battery tests (one a month) and 12 full GPS tests when it talks to the satellites to confirm Comms and transmit a test. Both passed and not looking like I don't need to do anything. A few pics from today below. Rob

    Outboard Anode

    Can you hang something like a BIG anode or something else sacrificial over the side? Taking the "heat" off the expensive outboard ones? R

    Can they identify if a specific boat is leaking? Is it possible to measure? Surely it must be, unplug a few boats until leak drops!!! R

  13. Is the water still full of May rot? R
  14. Got to let the wood season Jim, no point rushing.
  15. Can't you cast far enough? Come on Martin!
  16. I see Christchurch angling has 35lb of rag arrive today. Call and book and slot for service, shame I'm working Tuesday/Wednesday! (But grateful to be working and not furloughed or worse) Re
  17. The same pump and hozelock style fitting was used on the old tank to good effect (white barrel type in photos). Could be upgraded if needed quite easily. R
  18. Do you defrost the squid before wiping your arse Neil? (Never thought I'd string those words together! R
  19. Enjoy Frank
  20. Dorset's answer to the Fonz?
  21. Look like the road based equivalent of a Dejon!!!! R
  22. Careful what you add, I've had my head in a tank due to bug, volvos do not like some additives! R
  23. More room for cake Jim? R
  24. Thought you were retired Dave, sounds like you are busier than ever!!! How about afternoon snoozing? Not only paint the hall but also watch it dry? Maybe time for another boat project? R
