    Tips on selling your boat - from a buyer

    I am selling my Woods Strider Catamaran, It will cost me £40 to go to it to clean it. It's not costing me a lot to have it where it is, and being an unusual boat it may hang around for some time. I will be sailing it sometimes so my personal items will be on the boat. So no point in going to...

    Electric outboards for tender (budget, not Torqeedo) - your experiences please

    If I was limited to 100yards then I to would find this pretty limiting. I use mine for getting to the boat, and messing around sometimes I row, sometimes I motor, sometimes I row and motor. I get a lot more than 100 yards, I can mess around all day.

    Wind speed, where do you draw the line in small boats?

    Yes you have some great weather although there is a funny wind tonight, Watch out for the single rock in Horse Bay, I landed on it. Don't moor on the high side of the pontoon at Kipford, I got stuck under it. I had last week sailing with some strong winds, having to look out the window...

    Trailer refurbishment - winch matters

    Yes I was talking about the car. Big money if you smash it up. I agree with you about boat insurance but we are forced into it by marinas and boat mooring owners.
