  1. Be careful Jim, overdosing can result in a black eye.
  2. Glad to be of service. 10 minutes a day, but I don't think you can overdose.
  3. Try this.
  4. I'm posting this purely for health reasons, it would be silly to ignore it. Only 10 minutes a day!!!!! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10201534756324259&set=vb.314203031941530&type=2&theater

    5hp Aux

    Just phoned my friend, he's decided his boat isn't really suitable for an auxiliary engine. Thanks anyway, Over to you Steve.

    Golf Balls

    A man got on the bus with both of his front trouser pockets full of golf balls and sat down next to a beautiful blonde. The puzzled blonde kept looking at him and his bulging pockets. Finally, after many glances from her, he said, "It's golf balls." The blonde continued to look at him for a very long time, thinking deeply about what he had said. After several minutes, not being able to contain her curiosity any longer, she asked, "Does it hurt as much as tennis elbow?"

    5hp Aux

    A friend is looking for a 4 or 5 hp Aux, haven't seen his boat yet but fairly sure it'll be a long shaft that's required.
  9. Happy Birthday Paul.
  10. Could be an ignition component overheating. Had same symptoms with my previous boat, Volvo petrol inboard. I traced it to a faulty condenser in the distributor, the ignition coil got hot and engine died, let it cool down for 10 mins and ok for another 30 to 40 mins.

    Smart Tabs

    Ooops. Forgot I'd posted this before, must be an age thing.

    Smart Tabs

    If you have Smart Tabs, check the top of the cylinders. Both of mine rusted through, they're made of Mild Steel. I emailed Nauticus and they thought 4 years was a reasonable life time for them. The cylinders only have a 2 year warranty. Before I fit the replacements I'll pull the top of the gaiter down and paint the cylinder with Hamerite and then seal the top of the gaiter with silicone to keep the water out.

    insurance

    Rockley Boat Park ask for a photocopy of the certificate. After having my engine stolen in January, I'm very glad I'm insured.

    Building Permit

    Just applied for a building permit for a new house. It was going to be 100 ft tall and 400 ft wide with 9 turrets at various heights and windows all over the place and a loud outside entertainment sound system. It would have parking for 200 cars and I was going to paint it bright purple with pink trim. The City Council told me to p**s off. So I sent in the application again, but this time I called it a Mosque. Work starts on Monday.

    Spiders

    Apparently research shows that if you're afraid of spiders you're very likely to find one in your bedroom. I'm really scared of Helen Flanagan, Cheryl Cole, Kelly Brooke, Emma Watson and loads more.
  20. I had excellent service from them in the past. Off to the Boat Show on Saturday with the intention of buying another Lowrance product so I don't have to use split screen or switch from Plotter to Sonar. I'll be looking at the Elite 7 HDi.
  21. My 18 month old Lowrance HDS-5 kept freezing. The problem started after I followed the instructions on the Lowrance site and updated the software, the update completed successfully and all appeared to be working ok. But when I zoomed in or out, the display froze, none of the buttons did anything, all I could do was remove the supply. I emailed Navico at about 20:15 on a Friday 6th thinking they would see it first thing Monday, to my surprise I had an answer within 45 mins, telling me to send it to them. A brand new replacement arrived this morning. Maybe something to do with the fact I had the email address of their Global and Uk Service Co-ordinator and dealt with him directly..

    Hi to all

    Jim, aka "Tiddler", will probably be along shortly to tell you that all new members have to by him beer and cakes, ignore it. I can assure you he doesn't need any more cakes!!!!!
  23. I was at the bar the other night and heard three girls with an overabundance of flesh, talking at the bar. Their accent appeared to be Scottish, so I approached and asked, "Hello, are you three lassies from Scotland?" One of them screeched, "It's WALES, you bloody idiot!" So I apologized and replied, "I am so sorry. Are you three "whales" from Scotland?" I don't remember much after that...
