    Lawrence the over head view of hawtreys pit with the boats in it is that the same lake that the wide beam is that is out on the bank ?? If it is then were is the island that's in the centre gone. Darren

    Calling him Dan makes you come across a spotty, glass wearing ginger hair train anorak, I think your find he prefers to be called Daniel. Darren

    No your right a steam cleaner is a great asset in an outside environment but in a 8 ft room IMO you will unnecessarily cover everything in shit
  9. ChimneyChain
    Yep and completely cover ever thing else in an oily greasey watery mixture, lovely

    Hot soapy water is just as good and a stiff brush. Darren

    I know back in the day boats had a chimney extension but did it also fit into the collar as well to prevent taring on the roof ?? In winter I use a rolled Steel Sheet for my chimney and use the "nicey brassy one" for summer. Darren

    Well I've never had any problem using washing up liquid and canal water and my boats spotless. I suppose though it all depends on how you use. Darren
  17. ChimneyChain
    What about a little drop of washing up liquid in a bucket. And why use tap water?? when you could use the stuff that your boat is floating in. Darren

    It's black jacks Darren

    I would imagine it's had a new bottom in 10mm steel with the original sides at a 1/4" steel with 4mm cabin sides and roof. Darren

    Grace & favour is another one who posted a lot then vanished. Wonder if Daniel gives them a pill to swallow after they give up there roll if being a moderator ?? Darren

    Done one of our GU tanks, used cork for the gasket, used new boats/washers with gas ptfe tape wrapped around thread and washer. Been fine now for 4 years or so. Sadly both now need removing as both have got pin holes around the bottom. Darren Edit for fat finger syndrome

    As a parent would most defentley be standing next to the child whist they were steering I would hazard a guess the conversation went like this ...... Get over this way or get over that way. I very much doubt the child was left to steer a boat on his own while both parents were on either one of the other boats. And if they were I doubt the mum would be yelling bread or cheese at the child while he rounded a bend. Darren

    Does anyone think these little stories are actually true or are they another one of the great tales that ex boaters tell while sitting in the pub holding court in front of gullible wannabe boatman or women I'm not sexist. Darren
