Had the same problem but it was simply a matter of adjusting the morse cable thread that cured it. <hr width=100% size=1>

Can anyone help me find an illustrated parts list for this outboard please. I've tried the obvious sources including Tohatsu's American web site, without success. I've got the outboard in bits and am hoping someone has a manual or or can help somehow. <hr width=100% size=1>

Axminster Tools (You'll find them on the web) do tapered plug cutters, 6,8and 10mm. They are about £8 each and you do need a drill stand, but the plugs fit almost invisibly. <hr width=100% size=1>

If anyone is thinking of a trip up to the Baltic next year I've posted charts I no longer need on the For Sale forum on this website. <hr width=100% size=1>

if you do decide to go send me a private message. I'm returng my boat to the UK this year after 2 years in the Baltic. I'll then have a lot of charts. pilot books for sale and can probably answer most of your questions. My preferred route is to Ijmuiden then across to Lemmer in 1 day, on to...

Has anyone any experience of these : sailing qualities, sensible price to pay for a good used one, how many built. any common defects, plus points etc. <hr width=100% size=1>

Thanks for your reply to my posting about gas struts. I've had a lenghty correspondence with Selden to try to convince them their fitting instructions were wrong resulting in my gas strut being fitted upside down. You said you'd bought a replacement from Industrial Gas Springs. I've e-mailed...

A replacement gas strut for my rodkicker is over £100. I've seen on the web several firms offering to re-gas them. Has anyone done this or can offer advice. Don't tell me to chuck the rod kicker away and rely on the topping lift- that's my wifes idea. <hr width=100% size=1>

I don't know why more UK boats aren't in the Baltic, it's such a wonderful sailing area and travel links are easy, but if the thought of overwintering there is putting you off let me assure you it's a doddle and not expensive. It might help other boatowners to know of Augustenborg Yachthaven not...

I can't speak for other Bavaria models but I've cruised with my 34 from Biscay to the Baltic, living aboard for the five summer months for the past two years, which adds up to a lot of sailing. It's not perfect, given twice the money I have bought a Halberg I suppose. I don't race and I try to...

I'm wintered at Augustenborg, just north of Sonderborg. the whole area is a delight and the marina is one of the friendliest, most obliging and pleasant, and not expensive. You'll never regret coming to the Baltic. My one regret is that there aren't enough UK boatowners to meet there for a drink...

I'm presently overwintered at Augustenborg in Denmark. Plans for next year are a trip through the Gota Canal West to East. Has anyone done it who can give me some advice, information: on best charts to buy, recommended anchorages, marinas, supermarkets, restaurants, transit times ,costs...

Whenever I try to post a message I get a screen telling me I can't and it may be something to do with my browser. Can anyone help please>
