I’ve found the workboats off Bawdsey responsive on ch16, re. which side to pass..

MarineDigiPics.com..got us too, looks like you have to contact them rather than see yourselves on their site..

I've re done mine twice, removed with a long flexy scraper sharpened, hammer in and sideways with fairy liquid to lube.. Important to space the window on a tall bed of mastic to allow for the shear when expanding and contracting.. Mask up well to keep a neat edge. I'd be interested In your cost...

I used basecoat lacquer 2k ( ppg) and found the clear coat started to deteriorate at the waterline after a few years..boat was on the ( tidal ) Deben. Perhaps a direct gloss 2k wouldn't oxidise.. I've always marvelled at the cost of a boat paint job compared to a car, surely less prep on a boat ?

On the flip side..well done Timage Ltd who sent me a new barrel lock and two matching keys for 11 quid 'ish for my washboard lock..

Try Greenland Dock ( quiet when we were there.)..it's an hour to get to Wimbledon 1hr8mins by train, says google.

..of course with brexit 'n all, we are now allowed to use this technology..remember to use the special snorkel supplied though. Good luck.

I like being able to see if water is present in the glass bowl...wouldn't you lose that with the conversion. ?Agree it's a chore with the CAV unit, I undo the bolt, and drop everything into a plastic bag..less mess.

..and put a slot into the nozzle, and some pads under the acrylic to give a high bead to accommodate the expansion/contraction..or the sealant will shear and fail..screws give more problems..If the doom mongers had ever removed a properly bedded window, they would realise screws are superfluous..

Sealey do it..ask for stickit to hookit

A.R.Davies....01462 892304 ..in Baldock, I'm sure they'd help..but someone nearer you must do it?

If the old backing comes away cleanly..my bodywork materials supplier do a replacement 'hookit' stick on repair..did my Rupes long bed sander with it.

..ah yes...but I'm in Shotley..!

Great..any news?
