Was just exploring all the possibilities got a morco on the boat at the min flow rate rubbish take your point about gas usage that was my concern I know you can alter the gas rating quite low on domestic boilers 

probably gonna go down the diesel heater with cylinder and run the cold water through a accumulator to bump up the pressure unless you’ve got any other ideas 

thanks for your feedback Sam looking forward to hearing what you think about alternatives

Now, the late Les Allen IS a well-known name, and a highly respected one. He built many boats at Oldbury in the Black Country, I'm not sure if he fitted them out too, perhaps J. Rickerby's trade was as a boatfitter and he put the insides into a Les Allen shell. Is this a boat which you're thinking of buying? 

Yea iam

been neglected a little and gonna need some work but really nice looking hull and if mr Allen was held in high regard then probably be worth the effort thanks for your input really appreciated

That’s what comes up when I googled the boat so probably right then that’s good news old boat and a bit rough around the edges but if was a good builder then probably worth the effort to put it right then thanks for your input made things a lot clearer 

Yes I’m buying the boat

Found a paragraph saying that the boat was built by les Allen does that normally mean that the boat would have been finished by John rickerby

Is this normal practice
