Brixham would have spare births if they put there commercial head on. I have recently sold my boat, tried to get a refund on my annual contract and was refused, then tried to say to them that you can fill the birth from tomorrow and give me 1/3rd of what you get extra, again refused. Why would...

What I meant is that if MDL gave some benefit to telling the marina that your berth was not being used and someone else could use it, surely that is a win / win

The main problem is that because you cannot use freedom berthing within the group, most berth holders now do not tell the marina they are going to be away for a few nights, so a vicious circle starts to happen. I like what Lymington does, it rewards both sides.

What about a Merry fisher 10, different to other MF, also available on single shaft

I do not have one to hand , so could only get it next time I am at the boat, on the current one supplied when I bought the boat it says 32A on it, but this could be because this was what the broker had spare. I know a friend has a Sealine F380 and the connector is different to his.

Hi I have recently bought a Fairline Targa 38 (2011 model) and want to buy a new electrical hook up including the connector which attaches to the boat. I think I need this one MARINCO 32A 230V CONNECTOR KIT, could anyone confirm this is correct. Thanks

Hi I have been looking at a couple of boats circa 2001-2003 which have the above engines, was wondering what the watch outs are on them, also are they generally good Volvo engines. Engine hours on both boats are under 800, both have some service history although more current (not much for first...

Is the Fuel birth in Jersey available at all tide heights?

Hoping to do a trip to Guernsey next week, was wondering if anyone knows the price of Petrol per litre and the best place to purchase. Thanks

Hi Forum When i bought my boat I did not get a Bill of sale document from the dealer, he has said he is happy for me to send it over and he will sign. has anyone got a copy of one I could use. Thanks

Hi Paul I was at Lymington yesterday to look at a Targa 38, decided that it is to small, also looked at the Windy 43. It needs new decking outside as well as a few other things but looked a good boat. I am interested in your comments when you went on the boat a few years ago. Do you think the...

Thanks for all the replies, if I went for a shaft driven boat what other options are there sub 44 FT which would give wind in hair , as there are not a lot of Targa 43's about. Thanks

Has anyone got advice on a Fairline Targa 40 v a Targa 38. Been on a 38 but not a 40. Which is the better boat?

If i was to go for a Sealine S42 on Stern drives any recomendations on engines?

Thanks for the advice, surprised the Windy has the Characteristics you discribe. Dont want to start another thread on Shafts v Outdrives, but I am guessing the fuel saving on outdrives would nearly cover the cost of the extra servicing required. I do like the extra space on the Sealine, if I...
