  10. Good evening all Strange rumours on the Bridgewater, Limiting the use of your boat, only allowed to stay aboard 3 nights a week. Rumours of a nazi warden being aggressive towards boaters' and boating clubs, issuing threats to ban boaters from the canal, be interested to hear from any boaters who have any experience of this.

  13. My water pump sounds like it has budgie inside it when it comes on, is it knackered, its a few years old so don't think a service kit would be available. Thanks lpp2

    jp2 age

    Good evening I've found the following number on a brass plate on my jp2 10582 JPM P2 from this number could any member tell me the year of manufacture? Regards lpp2
  18. Good afternoon I'm not sure if my Kestrel Alternator Controller is working, when I start the engine,in a matter of seconds a red light comes on, as i reduce revs,a short while afterwards the green light comes on, the switch is in the up position, all the time the engine is running at a reasonable rate both lights remain on, when i drop the revs for mooring up the green light goes off. If i flick the switch down both lights go out at any revs. The controller is connected to one alternator which is connected to two 100aph leisure batteries. The engine is s JP2 which is a hand start version I think the question I'm asking is how do i know when the batteries are fully charged, I don't have an ammeter fitted. Thanks very much. Lpp2

    jp2 starting

    I'm asking this on behalf of a friend of mine,who's health is not what it was, is it possible to have a electric starter fitted. He can manage the boat reasonably well but using the starting handle is a problem for him. Thanks lpp2
  20. Good afternoon, what tile adhesive and grout would you recommend for use in a bathroom, I've heard normal household types aren't suitable. best wishes lpp2

  23. Yes that's the boat I was looking at, to be honest it confirmed my own thoughts, wouldn't you think they would get sales brochures right!! Thanks for all the comments. Regards lpp2
  24. Good evening Been looking at one or two boat adds, found one saying the boat had new fishplates, I'm fairly sure these have nothing to with food serving but what are they? what do they do? anyone got a picture. Regards lpp2
