  1. Cut and cover tunnel, a few concrete rings laid in the canal bed and cover it over.
  2. It will be if you use self levelling compound, probably 6" thick at the stern and ¼" at the bows 😁
  3. Peter who owns her has just had a lot of work done to her, he may have some out of the water photos
  4. We use to have the Karcher pressure washers offshore on out unmanned platforms for cleaning and they picked up sea water from a 205 lt barrel stood beside it as we had no fresh water onboard.
  5. I posted about the guy on the Ashby using canal water and a battery pressure washer. You could of course connect it to one of the taps in the boat. I have hot and cold bib taps in the engine room.
  6. I wonder how many tons of that you could carry
  7. Livestream – Gull Wing Lowestoft (gullwingbridge.co.uk) Live video footage of the bridge
  8. People have died doing it and I feel the BSS is partly to blame with there requirement, lots of boats feel as they have a gale blowing through them at times.
  9. Its very handy for redistributing the ballast I think I was on Spey and standing on the deck you could see her twist with every beat Fitting a narrowboat doesn't take long, ask DeanS
  10. That would be my guess Thanks for that
  11. But what is the big building going up near the Spon Lane junction
  12. Just cleaning it. I think it would be a very poor paint job if it stripped it, even the high pressure one at Northwich wont strip sound paint off
  13. I think his shaft has already come forward 5mm looking at the photo,
  14. Came through there yesterday
  15. Just a thought, I wonder if non return valves have seized up while empty? who knows. I just turn mine on and water comes out, job done.
  16. Yet he is quite pleasant in other places on line
  17. Can you not see behind the stove with a mirror ?
  18. And probably more reliable . This just came up on FB have a persistent problem with Eberspacher heating system - fault fuel supply comes onto screen but have recently had fuel pipes seen to. Can anyone suggest something. RCR are proposing to charge me £645 for an engineer to come resolve
  19. I saw a chap on the Ashby making a good job of his textured roof with battery powered pressure washed and canal water
  20. I think I would be doing that sooner rather than later
  21. If you say who built your hull then someone here may have one by the same builder and can make a better guess.
  22. It has been done Chris Coburn
  23. Bet it wasn't as cheap as mine
