How was the holiday?

Grit blasting is the only way I know of how to do it

I thought all canal narrowboats were self certified

That have a slightly bigger problem with Drinkwater on the S Oxford,

Are you going to remove all the posts on the manchester pusher as well

VDO is the make, the alarm wont be on the gauge but a lamp similar to the low oil pressure or ignition lights

Also look to see what make the gauge is and do you have a high temperature alarm

I wonder if there is an hydro engineering solution to this recurring problem

New bridge, what about the heritage

It would help if the OP tells us the make of the gauge

That is how I did mine. If you have three lengths of ply the same width as the flue you can fix them together with a single nut and bolt at each joint, That way when the angles right you just tighten it up. From that you can even get the angle of the cut for the pipe ends

It could even be a hi temp alarm and a temp gauge sender combined like Beta fit

Top gates are effectively very light when the lock is full and they are quite buoyant

Are you sure about that

Do you need that bow at 3 mph. Last time I saw this boat it was moored between Chester and Ellesmere Port
