If your only cooking on gas and not using it for Alde and water heaters. You could use 6kg or 3.9kg bottles. They are getting more popular and while they cost a little more, the extra hassel of cutting big drains and corrosion might be better.

Check out the Bimini covers supplied by Flexicovers and Reading Marine. They fold down either fowards or backwards and work better than the garden brolly that gets trashed by trees or blown away by the wind

If you want a little cheat to extend the operating voltage to the fridge here it is! Fridge is factory set to 10.4v cut out, 11.7v cut in If you place a link wire between pin P and pin C on the control box cut out drops to 9.6v and cut in drops to 10.9v when running cables, remember that DC cable length is both +ve and -ve added together so it you have your batteries 3m away from the fridge you have to size the cable as 6m long.

Sounds like a low voltage shut out. Pull the fuses on the unit and wait 5 mins, Make sure your batteries are well charged and put the fuses back and try again.

To All those we have upset, I am sorry! To all those who want to gloat, knock yourselves out but look over your shoulder before you do! To all those who came, went or stayed and have a kind word to say about us. Thank you. Reading marine has indeed closed its doors, but the yard at Aldermaston has not seen its last pump out and will be open for business as usual very soon. A slow order book, a constant wanting of everything for almost nothing by boaters and a sprinkling of miss fortune placed us here. If you have one of our boats and need advise or help. Our phone is always on. Thanks

EmpirBus is the way forward! Its simple to install, easy to program and cheaper than almost all the others!

I think what he said was that he would like to look into the problem and see if the heavy pitting found all over a 2 year old boat was causing the problem!
