Thanks all for the Birthday messages The weather has scuppered fishing /boating plans but will still have a good day Cheers Charlie

too much wind for us tomorrow Need I say more Jon?? although some areas around that way will be sheltered you have to get there and back safely Charlie

I am just off out, but perhaps you could give me a call tomorrow to discuss be aware that cutting extra vent holes in the engine box will really increase the engine noise inside the boat. a problem I lived with on my last boat, but she never did the long trips you do. if you can feed in air through a blower and let it vent overboard it should be a better option, but you need to think of sound deadening as well as reducing the air temp inside the engine box. Charlie

I believe that the intercooler is as others suggest there to cool the air into the engine to boost power by allowing more fuel/air mixture to be burnt. So not sure that a retro fit and more power would stop this problem. was the engine known to run hot? if so make sure that the engine compartment ambient temp is correct, possibly fitting a fan to the engine compartment would help. Volvo instructions state the amount of air flow required to the turbo on my engine and my surveyor sugested ducting air to the turbo area to keep it cool, in my case that is done as the air boxes are adjacent to the air intake filter. I am sure if you find a solution Craig would be interested. Charlie

Hi Rich Not sure I have your number now we are going at 0800 tomorrow if you want to join us give me a call 07887 794716

Ouch That is worse than Volvo, especially that gasket set I am sure you will source the items cheaper away from the Marine industry. will it be all 4 pistons and rings? god luck withthe repairs mate Charlie

Are you crewed up Adam? as so far its just me and I have no problem not doing the wrecking Charlie

anyone else thinking of getting away from the TV on Friday? I would rather be fishing and can join someone as crew, or take at least two possibly three with me. I think the weather may limit the choice of venue, but trying for a few bream to the west then anchoring bank or wreck over slack sounds good to me. if you fancy it get in touch Charlie Charlie

i have recently [past two years] really taken to the Diawa Kensaki braid rods I now have them all and always use the 12-20 when drift fishing for pollack/cod nice light rod to hold all day, very good action even though its in two equal parts and although the retail price is

Hi Mate with your contacts and skills I am sure it will not be a long job I believe from Craig that this is a known fault/problem any chance of some help from the industry? I am sure that considering the time of year your down time will be short, but if you need a trip let me know. best regards Charlie

Thanks Mike Add to that fishing excitment the planning and preperation involved to take your own boat and crew and you can see why we all get so up for this Charlie

We use D290 on the boats at work, they are very strong units compared to the teleflex. But a 20hp should not strain a teleflex unit designed for up to 55hp you need to get the correct length cable [usually marked near the ends] as you do not want tight turns in it, and you do not want to pay for longer than you need. Hope that helps Charlie

Happy Birthday Kam I hope you get the chance to wet a line Charlie

There should be fish in both locations LW poole is about 0830 so you will be paddling at slack You should be able to launch off the beach by the small ramp at Swanage about half way accross the bay, where the beach road starts to go uphill, so an easy paddle to ballard if drifting i would use a 2 hook pat rig or even baited feathers Tight lines Charlie

Well done Dan Some boats are struggling for bream others more fortunate That looks like a small starry smouthound to me. Charlie

Wow where does the time go It does not seem long since last time we were looking at all the weather sites every few hours BRING IT ON Charlie

As saturday seems to be a good forcast and crew is available that is the day we have chosen to go offshore again. if other boats are thinking of passing the bream marks please get in touch the rest of the weekend could see us afloat but nearer home Charlie

Nice one Adam Well done, now can you fix the weather please Charlie

Thanks

Tom can you post a link to all of the photo's not just the finalists Ta

I wish mate, but work becons would you like to borrow the 6lb Kensaki? as long as I get it back on your way in for Sat or Sun Charlie

Nige at least inshore our phones work so we can still talk Its down to transport with us as wendy will have the bigger car but I am sure I can arrange something. Last weekend wetted the apetite Charlie
