After a little accident at the weekend I am now looking for a new/replacement main bolt for a TUPH winch, my winch parted company from the winch base, shearing the bottom screw section off. Whilst I am at it I am looking for the plastic ball part that sits on the end of the handle, can anyone...

that would be good, thank you,

I now have two main batteries, 180 sealed unit and a 110 lead acid, at the moment the 110 is conected to the started and the domestics and I am thinking of using the other to run the fridge. I have a choice of a Sure power multi battery isolator or an Automatioc Power selector from Newmar, My...

I went last year and had a great time, if you are after big crouds and loads of stalls selling gear, then its probably not for you, but if you want a relaxed wander round the cats and chat to the owners/builders, and the chance to go for a sail in one, then you will enjoy it.

I paid for flights for my son and his friend on my credit card, I had a phonecall from America asking me to confirm my credit card details, I refused explaining that "all the details had been given online and that I would not give them again by phone, If they were genuine they would have them,"...

I recently fitted my Nasa AIS Radar and used a 1m Glomax on the pushpit rail of my little Contessa, It is picking up boats up to 20 miles away whilst in the Portsmouth Harbour and still does well in the Marina. The Longer range test will be at the weekend.

I have a Cobra MC 600Ci Chart Plotter with Internal GPS Antenna, I also have a Garmin Antenna and a GPS unit, but I put it somewhere for safe keeping..... Instead Ive decided to try and hook up my Nasa AIS Radar Unit to the Cobra as I dont have a clue where Ive put the Garmin GPS unit. I...

I am changing from a petrol to a diesel engine, and wish to use the same tank and fuel hose, Its one of those large plastric tanks for outboard use, but I like it as I can get it out to clean, and the hose is flexible enough to suit the small space, and its less than a year old. I cant find any...

Its for a customer, I dont sell them so I introduced him to this site, in the hope that he will get the advice he needs. Thank you all in anticipation.

I need to source a small impeller removal tool, the Jabsco one is too wide to fit into the housing, can anyone recomend any please?

Thank you, Thats very good advice, my boats out of the water now and has a slow but steady drip coming from the rudder so I shall be looking carefully into that, I repaired a hole last year which is why there is so much less water in this year.

Thank you all, Lots of great advice, a customer of mine needed help and ybw responded with lots of great advice. Down on the hardstanding last night there were quiet a few of us discussing water in rudders and every one of us has water in our rudder to various degrees, so its far more common...

....full of water, whats the best solution please? at present on the hardstanding, due back in, in a week

A friend bought one to do the same job at Fareham, but sold it again after one use, no thrust, no speed and not up to going against the tide. On a quiet Lake it would have been perfect.

Ah, as you have one already and I am awaiting delivery of mine, you might be able to help on a question I have, the catalog says to position 40 cm above the waterline, and centrally, I dont have 40cm of space above the water line, (Contessa 26) unless I feed it up into the locker on the side...
