I have a nicholsons guide to our local waterways (South) but it is now 20 years old.Quite a few things have altered,Pubs shut etc. I dont really want to buy a new one.and I wondered if there is anything on the net that I can download. Perhaps someone knows a good site that I can use. This is a great site and I am amazed at the information given. Keep it up all of you . Happy boating regards Jake (nb Scruffy Fox)

I used to work with high speed Heavy duty gear boxes, They used to run at 10,000 to 50000 revs per min.under heavy loads We had Castrol come down and demonstrate good and cheap oils. The premium oils stood up to pressure, heat and speed far better than the cheap ones which broke down relativly quickly. I would allways reccomend good oil, after all as a previos post said it only costs about a £1:00 a week.

HI Everybody I have a 56foot narrow boat with a Thorneycroft 4 cylinder engine. How often should it be serviced? I was told an oil change at 100 hrs and a major service at 500hours. This seems a bit extreme to me as I can do 100 hrs in a couple of weeks cruising. I have written to Thorneycroft but received no reply. Can anyone advise me please Jake
