    12v computer fan (available on e bay) wired into a miniature rocker switch and fed off a galley light or nearby light supply. That's my set up. I also have one over the bathroom hand basin and another in the shower cubicle. They can be fixed into the mushroom upstands with a dab of silicone. You may need to file the extreme corners off of the fan bodies.

    Hi did you put inline fuse from light to fan

    Three have always had a good network and the best prices, but I think because of this they have always run their network at or just over capacity. They are still the only one to offer proper unlimited broadband. Since the plague set in internet usage has doubled so I assume Three are now a tad overloaded. Some days here it just stops dead for an hour or two.

    I have 3 network I run on just 3G turned 4G off it’s a lot faster because 3 & 4 are not both looking for the best signal

    Evening all,

     

    We are planing to set out as continuous cruisers, from March.  The expectation is to cruise all summer, work all winter, with the aim of doing the whole network in three years.  Will probably take winter moorings, either CRT or in a marina in the depths of the cold, and obviously will slow right down for the rest of the period we are working.  However we need to keep a car both for work, but also to keep in touch with aging and sick relatives.  Really don’t want to leapfrog a car all the way from a Brum to Bath, and back (for example), and am happy for one of us to take the train to pick it up when we need it. My question is, is there anyone else who does this, and if so, what parking arrangements do you have?

     

    I piggy back a smart car ? with folding bike very easy to park no problem yet 3 years on the boat and I drive back home that is 4/5 hours away

    My hatches slide on an inverted L topped with a flat brass runner. In this country it rains now and again (:)) and water runs down the flat surface of the runner under the hatch and in to the cabin. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Had thought of cutting a strategically placed slot in the brass runner.

    Thanks

    I have the same problem so I’ve drilled 8mm hole in the brass runner and countsunk it it works very well
