thank you for your advice

no luck so far didnt have air noises, it is stopping and starting every now and again, emptied the hot water do you think i should try for longer with it running now cold?

ok , 10 mins? half hour?

iv just got the one pump, ran out of water late evening, then filled up the next morning, and this is the result?

yes has always ran fine, until the other day when I ran out of water since then had this problem,

Thanks tony, yes its a calorifier, the system is 3 years old

Hi There all, I hope someone can help me! my hot water taps on the boat are working initially on turn on, then after 20-30 seconds just very slightly trickles, cold water is fine and the water pump is kicking in as it should, any ideas? my boat had previously ran out of water beforehand? please send any advice kind regards Mark

Thank you for that

Its in repair as we speak ( Butler Technik Lincoln) Unfortunatly never had it serviced ( 3 Years), I will now though, should it be done yearly?

Hi all, I've just had my Thermo Top Evo serviced as it stopped working, The burner was blocked and full of a sandy substance does anyone know what this could be? and the cause? I've had the heater for three years from new, Im a liveaboard and use the heater continusly in winter.

sorry comments in other posts!

Hi there, yes i've done that with no joy! i've just been reading other peoples comments and some have had the same issues recently/before. Could the cold weather really effect the performance? Thanks

Hi All, again having issues with my webasto! The webasto is running but my radiators are not getting as hot as they usualy do and im feeling it with the current temperatures! (sat in a coat)! i noticed this last night, iv'e switched it off for an hour and let cool down and re started and its doing the same not reaching anywhere near its usual heat output, anyone had this? have any ideas? kind regards. mark.

does anyone know where there is a 10hp sabb single cylinder engine for sale working!

thanks for replies I think I will get amongst the boating communities and ask some questions, majority of boaters I've met are very happy to advise and help or just chat, the same as this forum thanks again to everyone, mark.

diesel water heater (radiators) or warm air blow heaters? yes!!

sorry 230v! im just thinking of heating, etc

does anyone live on a grp boat or know someone that lives on one without 240v?

thank you for that, I have viewed the boat online, I too was impressed with the interior, if it was a trad id of looked more into it, just for the extra cabin room

The engine runs but can t be used with water leak as is.Last cruised about a year ago as is used as base for weekends before we moved.Don t know when last antifouled but not in the 3 years we have owned it.There is a lot of surplus wiring that is no longer in use and outside could do with a coat of paint.We have used electric heating.It is water cooled from canal.Couple of windows have leak at the moment.The gas system hasn t been used since we had it as we haven t needed to use it.Shower hasn t been used in 3 years so not sure if it works.

£15-£20,000 38-45 ft wide/narrow grp/steel uk still on ebay, now £8,000 seen them on line ebay etc

cheers for that, the overheads are not in the boat budget as I know the prices of all them.

thanks, can you give me a lead? yes I've seen those ads!!!!! maybe some one will get very lucky one day!!!!!!!!

sorry for that, took the dog out! I don't think £300,000, is cheap however much money you have?!!!!! £15,000-£20,000

I've seen all of them on line (ebay, Apollo duck etc) nothing really jumping out, if anyone has any details of any boats or sites please let me know, cheers, mark.
