  1. Bream ( the boat of two halves ) is for sale at Alvecote marina £49,500
  2. Thanks Mike
  3. Experience of other Boats is precisely what I need whilst I agree every boat is different due to insulation Windows ventilation et cetera et cetera nothing can beat good old-fashioned hands on experience All I really want is one of the two following Yes, it keeps our Boat nice and warm No, it’s Shit
  4. To be honest “heat loss calcs” are a paperworks calculation I asked for real practical world experience which imo is a dammed sight better
  5. Has anyone on the forum got one fitted with a back boiler running radiators if you do please can you dm me so we can have a chat about it we’re not sure if it’s “ man enough” to heat 2- 3 rads and space heat the saloon ( total cabin length 45ft) thanks Chris
  6. Hi, Lise and I have just purchased a preowned corner diesel bubble which will be refurbished and fitted later this year this particular stove is fired with a back boiler but our plans for CYPRUS would be better suited if this was just standalone in the saloon at the front ( we would also be fitting a diesel burner Autoterm , new pipe work and rads along with a calorifier ) so the question is .. Can we either a) disregard the fitted back boiler and carry on b) fill the back boiler with sand/vermiculite etc and carry on c) redesign the system with one rad and keep the back boiler ( Which I would rather not do tbh ) . I have previously emailed Harworth heating with this question but as of yet had no reply ( probably cos they are not selling anything ) cheers Chris
  7. Or just Innes to his friends
  8. Obviously your sense of humour and irony chip has malfunctioned
  9. With all the fuss over the T stud , I still find it offensive that he has welded using metric rods instead of the authentic in keeping imperial ones
  10. Ours is removed and coiled on the slide tidy , effective and old school
  11. Pete will be at Alvecote this year and has a cabin on CYPRUS anytime he wants it , fully aware of all of the ongoing works No it not Petes Colonel but now Dave n Tracy’s and in Petes words gone to safe hands
  12. This comment has been covered
  13. We’re here —but you knew that lol
  14. I see TYCHO is up for sale on the duck with Aquavista https://narrowboats.apolloduck.co.uk/boat/yarwoods-for-sale/797541
