I've just removed a D4 and replaced with a Planar. It was working, but only intermittently, so I'm advertising it as "spares or repair". It's complete with all wiring looms, and the control unit, the only thing not included is the exhaust. Collect only in Falmouth area, £50 Doesn't include...

Thanks to everyone for the info, especially the drifts towards alcohol ??

Meant to add quote ?

Excellent! What a wonderful idea ?

Currently tucked away up the river Fal sheltering from this lovely summer weather ? Hoping to move down to St Mawes Monday or Tuesday. Can't remember if there is a launderette in St Mawes, can anyone advise?

Ok, the proof will be in the pudding. Coating applied and we went back in the water yesterday. Obviously we will be monitoring closely, and I'll report back as we see how it goes! Needless to say this will be over the next 12 months or so.

I was wondering how those of you who have repeat prescriptions manage to get your supplies when cruising abroad for long periods? Does a relative pick up and post to you? We are going to be in that position soon, so advice welcome. Thanks

I agree that its the future, I think that very soon self antifouling will be banned, having to be left to the "professionals" at triple the cost, closely followed by biocides being banned altogether. I hope we have pitched our long term plans correctly.

We are just having the hull prepped, ready to apply Seacoat V10X this week. Hope it's the right decision! Will feed back results.

Hi, Anyone looking to sell a set of ladies foulies, size 16? Thanks, Brian

The stone quay opposite has now been sold to the house that sits on it, and they are very protective of it! The concrete pier on the left is owned by PYH and you can dry out there if you book, nominal fee, used to be £1 per metre.

Selling my Seago 240 dinghy. 1 small patch, but holds air well. It's a bit scruffy (reflected in the price), but I like that, as maybe not so attractive to thieves. £150. Plymouth

Been with Yachting24 for 8 years, an online subsidiary of Pantanaous. Fantastic customer service and the premium has gone up £10 in all those years. Check 'em out, they're brilliant! No connection, just a very satisfied customer.

Our yacht club enjoyed a winter talk on splicing by English Braid. The guy who presented it was brilliant, and made it a fascinating and entertaining evening, using practical demonstrations and getting some of us involved as well.
