It's all about cattitude.

Perkins 4/107 leaking water/oil from bellhousing area

The rivers around Gt Yarmouth are a bit salty, lower Bure, Breydon. -
Also Recundra's third cruise ut together by Brian Hammett. Lots of information about Arthur and Evenia.
-
Yes AR interviewed Trotsky for a uk's. newspaper, Yorkshire Evening Post I think and was quite instrumental in the troubles there. I thought Titty owned Peter Duck.
-
Recundra's first cruise by AR is a true account book of his sailing cruiser that he had had built in Riga and cruised the Baltic with the ''Ancient and the cook'' who was his wife a Russian lady 6'3'' tall, around 1923'ish. Missie Lee and Peter Duck are the odd ones out but very good and funny reads.
-
The Big six is one of the best of all. I have all the books and just been doing book binding on some that were coming apart. Arthur really understood the minds of children better than any other auther including Enid Blyton. All available in paperback and some old hardback, Ebay and Amazon.

Never ever chuck water on it, it will blow up in your face. Read Arthur Ransomes ''The big six'' where George Owdon tipped a bucket of water down the chimney of the Death and Glory and blew out steam, hot coals all over the place from the stove.

Keep a packet of salt handy. It will damp the fire down quickly.

The English channel goes roughly east to west, not north to south.

My hour counter cost 50p at a boot sale 30 years ago. From an old generator, electro mechanical. Simply wired to the run side of the ignition switch. Like Arthur Daley in can be clocked to zero by moving the tumblers with a razor blade and matchstick.

What for it's third party and not interested in my boat, just others that might be damaged by mine.

For internet, check out Mobile Broadband, a USB powered router dongle. I use a 3 4g one but the other providers do similar.

I had one moored behind me, a Carribean type built in Brundle, Nanni engine, no silencer just the usual sea boat non return type water box exhaust outlet. Not only was the exhaust note staccato but also combined with the drumming of the grp shell of the transom. And no weed box hatch, so would need frogmans suit, snorkel. A pole with a pike on the end to clear the prop would be a struggle.
-
Most Broads cruisers have raw water cooled engines with no actual silencer, just cooling water ejected from the exhaust. They can make an awfully loud rasping noise from the exhaust pipe at the stern end which would send anyone moored behind bonkers.

A humane rocking mouse trap are very popular with mice, it's the peanut butter that does it. A rat with the right rattitude might also like a bigger version.
-
If you can reach the engines decompressors and start button at the same time use them, they will lessen the load on the batteries and starter motor, especially in this colder weather when the oil is thicker.
