All the weight is taken in the base of the hull. The struts at the sides just stop the boat from tipping over.

That's how I did it . Just applied the blue antifoul coat at the weekend.

GRP boats may not need 'blacking' but they do usually have antifoul paint . They usually have anodes. Therefore lifting out every couple of years is not an unusual routine. BSS expires in March and sound like its not going to pass that without work. I would have thought some better pictures would help . However it looks to me like £10k is a bit optimistic.

I think you will not identify much difference between android and apple. Android is not Microsoft windows.

A bit of painting - Seajet O15 primer coat .

definately not for road use.

Green moss and algae in window channels may be killed off using Patio Magic or similar applied on a dry day and left to do its work over a couple of weeks. Any residue will tend to be washed out by rain.

Torksey lock is not on the River Witham . It connects the Fossdyke Navigation to the River Trent . The River Witham rises near Grantham and flows towards Lincoln and into and out of Brayford Pool . The Witham above Brayford pool is not navigable except perhaps for a short distance in a dinghy or a canoe . The watercourse exiting Brayford Pool and travelling downstream under The Glory Hole is The River Witham. Therefore Stamp End Lock is on the River Witham and not at the beginning of the river. The River Witham continues after Boston Grand Sluice and is navigable even in in narrowboat. Therefore if including Bardney Lock that's three locks on the River Witham.

These things move very slowly No doubt put on hold while the general election was on Then waiting for activity after the election. Then Christmas . I think nothing will happen until it is clear what is happening after the end of January .

I'm not familiar with the water system . However the air heater has two fuses . Its possible one of the fuses has blown. Early this year it was my ECU that had failed which I diagnosed by fitting a new fuse and that resulted in smoke from the ECU . That might not be your fault of course . I bought a replacement ECU from Kirknalls , which was a bit cheaper than the main dealers and possibly a copy - but it did the trick. https://www.kirknalls.co.uk/heaters.html

Which means we carry on with no immediate changes. I would be pleased to hear from anyone who has knowledge of any changes from red to white diesel instructed by HMRC at any UK marina.

There are three locks on the navigable River Witham. Stamp End Lock , Bardney Lock , Boston Grand Sluice
