  1. Brilliant. Thanks Tracy. That’s much appreciated.
  2. Hi. My Liverpool NB has the Isuzu 35 with original HMI 70amp alternator running through a Sterling Alternator to Battery charger then onto 3 x 110ah agms. The leisure alternator has failed so I bought a Prestolite 90amp marine to replace with. Connected up but no output from the Sterling and lots of flashing leds. The new alternator is isolated ground where the original was earthed through the case. I’m guessing this is the issue. What do I need to do to get my new alternator working please? I’m at a loss. Thanks in advance.
  3. Hi. My 2006 Vetus WCS2 loo has decided it won’t stop filling with water once the eco or full flush buttons are pressed. The PCB is the likely culprit but new ones are pricey. Is anyone breaking a WCS2 for spares and has a pcb? Or any other thoughts very welcome. Thanks.
  4. In answer to ‘was it a 'self-fit-out' boat or was it built and fitted out by a boat builder ?’ Its an Aqualine Manhattan. In its life it’s had a water pump leak, a calorifier leak and a leak in the bathroom. The bathroom one ended up with about 200 litres of water under the floor, thanks to a dodgy bilge pump. That was around 2 months ago. I have heard that large quantities of water can take a long time to filter down to the bilge at the stern especially with concrete blocks. But I’d have thought by now it would have drained to the stern? what do you think? Thanks for all your advice. It’s very helpful.
  5. Thanks so much everyone. I’m going to suck it to death with a wet and dry vac this weekend and I’ve also bought a dessicant dehumidifier to try and manage the condensation level. The fans idea is a good one. Thanks. Should I get them sucking out into the boat or sucking from the boat into the baseplate do you think? Many thanks. The White stuff you refer to by the way is a thin sheet of what looks like insulation. It’s all over the boat. On top of that are concrete blocks like block paving which is the ballast.
  6. Hi. Can you help with a wet under floor please? 2008 65 foot narrow boat. The cabin bilge is always wet. I suck out about 5 litres per month. There was a small leak in the bathtoom 2 months ago but it’s been fixed. Still seeing some wicking up the base of the wooden bulkheads so I drilled some inspection holes. Photos attached. The whole floor is like this. Could this be condensation? Do I need to force ventilate under the floor? Having been searching for a leak for a month and not found conclusive evidence of one anywhere I’m at a loss. Your advice very gratefully received. Thanks.
