I’d like to get rid of the black stuff here - liquid metal, I think. What tool or fitting will let me get in the mast track gate and remove it efficiently? mast is still up.

Two used Vetus UFOTR deck vents 20cm, good condition, (Please note Boxes are for UFO 02) £50 for both. Collect near Bristol or possible Portsmouth

I have two full sheets and most of a third of the halyard maritex engine sound proofing. 1m x 0.6m x 32 mm. £75. collect near Bristol but Portsmouth also possible.

Tremendous (hard!) work, Roger! Did you paint all the coach roof sides white or just the front sloping panel?

I find myself with quite a complex situation regarding ownership of a boat and a sinking which I think I will end up in court. Can anyone recommend a good marine lawyer, ideally who would be happy to have an Informal chat first before signing on the dotted line to represent me? I’m aware of...

Anyone have a copy languishing ? Thanks

Hello - as it says above. Anyone have a marine hydraulic steering pump ? Many thanks

Anyone have this? Can still buy, but it’s expensive so hoping someone has a tatty one at a jumble sale price ....

I have two of these for sale, both with timers etc. they are great - far superior in heat projection and economy than the cheapo ones from Tesco, stirdy and compact and one is ideal for heating a boat in winter as I have done. Good condition overall. £40 each or I'll do a deal for both. Pick up...
