Doh Thanks

Full set Nasa Marine Target instruments, (Depth, Speed and wind} all with sun covers, built into a washboard, but easily removed. There are new sounder sensor and through hull speed sensor. Also a brand new still boxed Nasa wind speed and direction sender which alone cost me more than I am...

Built them into a washboard. These come complete with a brand new unopened mast head unit and cable, new speed sensor and almost new depth sensor. Located in East Lancashire Bargain £160, new mast head unit cost £100

Hardly used, been stored for years so in great working order. Located in East Lancashire £60

OK They are still available

Due to an imminent house move I have been told my magazines need to go, so are free to a good home/any home. They date from 2003 to 2013, mostly complete years are 2005ish to 2010ish any interest before they go to the tip?? Oh some yachting worlds in there as well same era. Located in East...

Very true and worth thinking about. The reason for wanting the Nasa AIS engine is to compare sensitivity of the receivers. Thanks, John

AIS is transmitted on 2 frequencies/channels, with the commercial receivers they very quickly listen on both channels one at a time ie scan them, with the above TV or SDR dongle you can only listen to one of the channels. Not a bad thing as the dual channel ones can miss part of a message as...

I am currently using one of those and it does work well, but it is only single channel receive, I am looking for dual channel receive now as part of my little project. Thanks for the reply though.

Looking for one of these or similar for a little project I am playing around with Thanks

Thanks for the replys, very encouraging. The winter mooring charges are almost the same as keeping it on its trailer in the boatyard. Will ring the wardens next week and see what is available, unless any forumites will have a mooring free over winter.

I am nearing completion of a full refit to my Westerley Jouster, and thought than rather leave it in a yard somewhere, I could put it on Windermere for the winter and get some use out of it. I see they do a cheap winter mooring fee out on the moorings, but after last winters near continuous...

This is what I have, I do not understand where the thrust is applied to the hull - through the engine/gearbox or through the shaft and bearings. Would the lip seal prevent water getting up the stern tube and what sort of bearing should there be at the inboard end as it is a 20mm shaft and 40mm...

Well better late than never I got the shaft out. The brass thing in the prop end of the shaft held a lip seal, behind that was a circlip which is held in the stern tube then a standard 17mm x 40mm 5203 2RS bearing, then a small lip on the stern tube to prevent the bearing going any further up...
