    Simrad TP10 / Raymarine ST1000 interoperability

    Hello Nick. You might be interested in replacing your TP10 with mine. I have a brand new one from last year. It has hardly been used and is pristine. I am giving up boat ownership and crewing instead. If interested ,make me an offer I can't refuse! Cheers Frank.

    Fully Battened mainsail

    Any opinions regarding using sliders (slugs) as opposed to a bolt rope . Slugs do tend to jamb but the sail lays tidily when down. Use of boltrope means that the sail has to come out of the mast slider which is tricky when singlehanded. What do you think?

    Alicante or Torrevieja???

    Puerto Tomas Mestre is south of Torrevieja,near Cabo de Palos and north of Cartagena. The port is entered from the Med via a swing bridge and is on the Mar Menor. It's clean,well run and pleasant and could easily accomodate your boat size. Good Luck!

    Alicante or Torrevieja???

    As an alternative to Alicante/Torrievieja, why not consider Tomas Mestre Port in La Manga del Mar Menor. There is usually plenty of room. Don't know about prices and I reckon crime is virtually non existant, due maybe to there being only one road from the mainland onto La Manga, so it's easily...
