  1. That looks like a set up that I could incorporate into my existing change. I currently have about 4 ft or travel and in the past the flex in the upright has caused it to pop out of location. I was contemplating lowering the shaft to the lovel of my lower cupboards in me rear cabin and having a foot operated change. But I like yours. Thanks for taking the pictures.
  2. Could you fine fellows possibly post some images of your linkage set up for mid engine rooms. I’m tired of my cobbled together contraption causing issues. thanks
  3. Musk is a real life Tony Stark. The new battery factory going up is massive. If he wants tech, he has it invented.
  4. All in good time, i had an issue of a mooring rope snap in the winds today, luckily my new neighbour spotted it and knocked my door. We wrestled it back closer to the pontoon and strapped the two boats together with webbing and ratcheting strap. Strong winds, old rope and new boater nearly caused a disaster. Not helped by our marina only having half length pontoons. New ropes ordered. New friend made.
  5. Thats as i understand the name too. Thanks all.
  6. Engine is an air cooled Lister three cylinder. It is a wooden cabin. Its in fantastic shape too.
  7. After 18 months planning i moved aboard my boat on Friday, Getting to grips with life on board with my two kids. I have them half the time and my ex wife the other...school is 5 minutes away and ive moored 20 minutes from work (i work in a car body shop) So here it is...only a few pictures as rain stopped play. I have lots of work planned to fit out to my and my kids needs (and a cat & dog) Also need to build a site to archive the history of the boat...The previous owner got it to Trinity for me on the Ashby and was accompanied by the Blacksmith that commissioned it in 2000 and worked it as a blacksmiths. It was an emotional hand over. Im doing some boat handling next week and a boat basics run down. Lyndon.

  10. Any large gathering will statistically involve some one being born or their life coming to an end. Im surprised no one was injured to say the least.
  11. Ahh but they only toast 2/3rds of the bread. They are too small.
  12. Cheaper to let them get on with it and clean up after.
  13. Im a VW show veteran (been going since the early 90s) and ive seen things get worse and then better...drink, sun and a few days away usually means a 20% reduction in IQ lol
  14. Pretty much this. We in this country are conditioned to question those 'just having fun' and enforce it's control. Then when a little bit of freedom comes about we go nuts. I dont know whats worse, those going nuts or those perpetuating the need for regulated order and fun.
  15. Not thoughts on your questions, but its a very very attractive boat. If you got that i would be envious. Best of luck.
  16. If you can handle the lack of space and feeling of confinement surely the issue of temperature is just down to quality of insulation.
  17. Any particular reason my post was removed? Also why complain about quoting the swearing and not the swearing? I was accused of some how being a media moll in some foul language paranoid rant and replied calmly without swearing (Alas only to correct the language used) As a new user it would be nice if the mod in question had PMd me why they felt it necessary to remove my post so i could stay with in the rules. I have to say that some of the users on here are not very friendly at all.
  18. *Im always up late. These there papers dont write themselves. *This may not be true.
