Speak to Lang & Potter

Hi Buddy good to hear from you - are you still on your epic voyage with the missus. You can not fix the bearings as this is like the main item of the unit so I replaced the blower and had the unit fully serviced for about £800 + vat or there about's. D2 should be a lot more competitive to...

Lisa HNY - I thought it would be nice and calm @ CYH with the wave break now nearly completed :encouragement:

As Freddy rightly says Town Quay not good for a night sleep - Unless you have a 45 foot boat plus as a smaller boat will be rocking all night and day - Where are they going to put you btw

Gary can't imagine you sitting on a beach looking at all those people having fun on there boats :confused: I noticed this post started after xmas :rolleyes: Did Debbie not like her xmas pressie from you btw ;) Happy New Year to one & All & Best Wishes for 2015 Terry

The boat is repairable.

Boat is @ Endeavour Quay - Gosport - Does not look good, I took a load of photos the other day but did not feel like putting them on the web..

Would you therefore recommend not to use mooring line material as per braid on braid but normal 3 core strand etc as this item would probably never be used. Terry

Would you double up the rope i.e port to port etc so only 50 m overall length or just use a single rope with a Y at either end to maximise the length = less chance of the towed boat running into your stern.

How many fellow forumites have on board suitable rope for towing a fellow boater to a safe haven. If so what length do you have assuming your boat is 15 metres long - I was looking to purchase a single rope around 45 metres so will that be long enough x 20mm thickness braid on braid to reduce...
