I think I read in another post that ebay got higher prices!

I have some C-MAPs for sale on ebay. You can get details by clicking below. The auctions end on the 19-Jul-06. Prices below are bids as of 13-Jul-06. C-MAP NT+ WIDE Norway: Mandal to Foerde £29.00 C-MAP NT+ WIDE Skagerrak (Baltic entrance) £29.00 C-MAP NT+ SUPERWIDE West Scotland £30.00 C-MAP...

OK, no rules so far :-)

Are there any rules for this forum? For example is it ok to list items for sale on ebay here and give links to them (in this case C-MAP charts). Chris. PS. If not could mod add a sticky thread to include some rules? Ta.

Is that on PAYG ?

>If you're looking for Port Solent in the sun a good choice. Surely you mean Vilamoura! >Tavira That's nice for a visit but with no marina not really a very good base is it? >Villa Reale far more "Portuguese" and less expensive. Ah yes that is certainly true. I spent a month there and liked...

Yes I'd say its the best base for Portugal. You also have Alvor as a beautifully sheltered harbour only 2 miles away and Sagres not far.

EasyMobile are 20p/min to receive a call according to this: EasyMobile Roaming This seems way cheaper than anyone else especially for PAYG. Can anyone confirm this. Are there any gotchas?! Chris.

I forgot about cables, I guess copper and gold would look the same, still it may be worth a try. At least the topic has caused some amusement! Its a beneteau and there are places things could disappear

Any ideas how to find a lost wedding ring on a (GRP) boat? I am thinking a metal detector is the way to go but have no experience with them. Chris.

OK, this is probably the best tip. I tried this and got 16.5 m. Passed under a 18m bridge with at least a meter to spare. Cheers Chris.

Re: Ingrate Since I posted I have been sailing up the NW coast of Sweden, able to receive replies but not able to post. Perhaps you could be a bit more patient with us non armchair sailors!

WOW, thanks for all the ideas. This is the one I used. Incidentally I am in NW Sweden where there are a few tricky bridges which is why I needed to know. Cheers Chris.

Any ideas for measuring mast height WITHOUT climbing the mast or using a sextant? Ta Chris.

Well in the end I had to blow down the expansion tube and blow it out! Cheers Chris.
