Yes - it could! Could be anything.! We are learning what we can as we go along but when your first boat is a new one and nothing reallly goes wrong (which is good!) it is a while before you start learning stuff!

Yes, I now the cycle you mean, but this was, I don't know , but long enough to be constant and the stage where something had definitely gone wrong! 😆 IN that case I am definitely ahead of the game so far! 😆

Yes although I had no idea which one it was! But thank you (seriously - I felt that looked sarcastic!) ButIi have got lucky and found it first time so that is a change for me. I tried putting it back and it started immediately although now I can ascertain it is in at the back of the engine at the bottom of the engine bay away from unit and presume it must be the diesel pump but either way I am ok now until someone can get here and I can learn from them,. Thank again

Hi So at some random time during the night the Eberspacher (D7 I believe) started to hum when it was not on (so I am told, I never heard the noise but the wife says). This morning after 2 failed attempts the heating came on as normal and worked but now as the cycle has completed it is still humming quite high pitched.... I have been down and around it looking for something as simple as a switch to turn it off partly to protect it (whatever it is) and partly cods that might "reset" it? but I can't even find that! So while my level of expertise and knowledge is such that I am not going to believe I could fix it, I would at least like to be able to try and turn it off until I can get someone out to look at it as it is (of course!) a bank holiday! So any help figuring out to turn it off would be appreciated!

We only have experience of one Castle Marina but no complaints here - well, unless you count the Elsan being at the other end from our berth but that seems a little churlish!

Ahh........our water pump comes on for a couple of seconds at a time every now and then and we wondered why! This is probably it. Thanks

Clearly the system is just rubbish! I just wondered., The eye test it is - it's what we've been doing anyways! Ta all.

Ok, so we have been aboard Little Miss Sunshine for 2 weeks. We have had everything figured out as we have gone along and no diasters so far. For those who have followed my previous threads, Mrs Neal loves living on a boat but is less loving of moving it. (so far!) Anyway, one thing defeats me and which I cannot for the life of me figure out. How in the name of all living things do you get the sliding waste gauge on a Thetford cassette toilet to work?!?! There is a magnet in the cassette on the float and another on the side of the insert and (I assume) when the float rises it is supposed to pulls the insert magnet along with it which in turn pulls the red slide up but is there some top level masonic secret to lining them up so it works or is it just a rubbish system?!!? I know we can use the eyeball test but this kind of niggle is just the thing that gets into my brain.....

I got fired

Best of luck! Hope to bump into you sometime!

Ok, well the phone numbers for Bourne and Teddesley are the same and is the one we have been trying but I've tried Bourne's contact us form...

This is odd - Mrs Neal definitely tells me she's been speaking to them all summer but we'll try them then! Thanks

Hello I was just wondering if anyone knew what, if anything, has happened to the Teddesley Boat Company? We have been talking to them all summer about launching our boat there and they have been good as gold but now we have a 95% firm date of 11/10, around 3 weeks ago they stopped answering their phones and have not responded to e-mails otherwise we will need to start making alternative arrangements and it was difficult enough to find one yard in the right sort of place and price! I thought that that may have been on holiday but now I wonder if they have simply closed as if they’d gone on holiday for 3 weeks or more then wouldn’t they have changed the voice message or website or something? If they are on holiday does anyone know when they are back? It'd be sad if such a helpful bunch had suddenly closed for some reason.

Thanks! I say thanks..... I didn't paint it....!

She is freshly painted with her name and the covers are fitted, so Little Miss Sunshine is ready to go. My house buyers, however, are not Still - hopefully, on 6th September 2018.........
