Maybe stupid - but they work. If you find it stops .... then have blanking cap ready and pull the log .. blank off the water coming in ... clean log ... put back. Mop up the litre or so water and go happily on your way ...

Arrrrr now getting to the nitty gritty .... Usually through hulls have a blanking screw CAP and no bung / nothing to fill the tube. A few like my B&G have non screw blanking plugs that are a full length of the tube - that just push in and rely on O ring friction to hold / seal. If someone has...

My Primor 24 was due to be lifted .. trailered to yard for new cockpit cover and some work to be done ... Looks like it will be later as I live on the river and been invited to participate in the River Fest ..... Will have photos etc later ... 29.011 Aufrufe · 174 Reaktionen | 31. maijā no...

OOP'S - now you're for the high jump !!

Most Outboards can have Extra length added to extend more than standard long shaft ... Obviously the question is availability of kits.

To me as Paul says - without knowing actual gear items .. its a haystack quest ... 1. Brand and model of gear involved .. 2. Check labels and manuals for info 3. If no manuals - download from manuals.lib online 4. With phone switch off WiFi ... then switch back on and see what WiFi comes up...

Often the offending bulkhead would be removed ..... replacement bulkhead made in 2 or 3 parts - so that it can be fitted in easily. The joints would be epoxied or weatherproof PU Resin glue. Once bulkhead is fitted, glassed in place ... then a brace beam could be added if considered necessary -...

Yes ... was not so uncommon for plastic through hulls to shed the outer flange. If there is room - I would be trying an oil filter grip on the tube and a pipe wrench on the plug ... try to get plug to turn while protecting the tube from turning etc. My question though - Why is the blanking...

Interesting ...

Maybe the Garmin Plotter is Tx'g WiFi ... as the update system can use WiFi based on your phone / tablet logging onto the Garmin Plotters WiFi. The password should be in the manual ? I think the Garmin WiFi on my boat was open without password - but its ages since I sorted it so could be wrong...

The auto scrolling of a plotter ? First time I have ever heard the term True Motion used for that ..... must have a look through my various plotters manuals ! Pretty sure that term will not be in any of them. Yep - just looked in a couple of the many I have ... cannot find True Motion mentioned...

+ Pickled Egg

Chart Plotter with optional True Motion ?? True Motion / Relative Maotion are Radar factors surely ?

I would be looking to disconnect GPS / AIS and replace with another GPS data source - to check all is working ok.
