  1. Thanks for the offer Jim, I do have a cabled one myself, one of those things that I thought sometime in the past would be a Good Thing. I think I've used it once! Charlie, I think you are correct when I figure in travelling time and fuel costs. Would that be a fibreglass specialist or a boat valet. I asked Darren at MD to give it a go in the spring when he did the boat but he only managed to get a good shine on the discolouration. Terry.
  2. Thanks for the advice and have you got her number? Terry.
  3. When I'm convinced it's just surface. A plan starting to come together. Terry.
  4. Photo's when I'm next in Poole. Good thought about the T-cut, it does appear to be on the surface rather than ingress of discolouring into the gel coat. Terry.
  5. I did - no effect, very disappointing. Looking at it I thought it was sun damage but it is not all over, just in patches. I'm really scratching my head over this one, it's the only thing that is marring the appearance of the boat. Terry.
  6. Does anyone know of somebody who does hull wrapping? I don't actually want the hull wrapped but two wheelhouse pillars that have got discolouring which I can't shift. Terry.
  7. Happy cake day Stuie, they keep coming around - fortunately! Terry.
  8. Happy cake day Andy, last time I saw you, you gave me worms! 😉 Terry.
  9. You won't regret it. Terry.
  10. Another one for Portcawl, been with them for years, sometimes stays the same, sometimes comes down, never known an increase until I upgraded. Terry.

    What part of Norfolk is home, I'm from Holt. Terry.
  13. Thanks for your personal experience input Pete. Terry.
  14. Right, I'm toying with fitting Baystar hydraulic steering to Min-y-Mor, it is pretty stiff and jerky under power, no problem at low revs. I know it is not a difficult job but I'm getting to the stage where I find it difficult working low down or getting into contorted shapes to fit things into tight spaces. Does anyone know of someone who could do this job, not sure if it comes under the auspices of engine doctors or general boat work. Terry.

    Trev, what you been up to mate? I was not aware so this comes as a shock. I hope you are content with your new bionic status, keep us all up to date. Get normal soon! Terry.

    Buoys.

    Just what I was wondering, surely can't mean the channel markers. Terry.

    Tuesday

    Anybody fancy an airing on Tuesday? I shall be leaving Cobbs around 08.00 and heading East. Terry.
  18. Isn't it kind of the same thing? 😒 Terry.
  19. I was brought up on B52's at Brize in my youth and we've had one locally for the last couple of weeks which I assumed was for more sinister reasons. Good to know it doesn't have evil intent...........or does it? They are still in service as high altitude bombers 70 years after being commissioned. Terry.
  20. I would have thought your input would have been useful after our recent discussion. Go on, you owe it to the seahorses. Terry.

    Specialist knowledge, can't argue with that! Terry.
  22. This is the theory that when people see what they're using, they'll turn it off. So, no toast, no oven cooked dinners, no hot drinks. How many people turn these things on when they don't actually need what they produce? Terry.
  23. They are lauded as being the answer to lower bills and lower consumption, thus saving the world. I can't for the life of me figure out how they save power. Terry.
  24. Martin could learn from Veronica. 😉😀 Terry.
