Thanks!

I miss my boat which is waiting for me since Oct. 2020 in my Italian marina. To see her I used to drive from Munich to Lignano, crossing German-Austrian-Italian borders. I got two shots of Pfizer vaccine and a certificate to prove it..... Any advises how/when to try a journey?

Many thanks, Looks like will have to wait...GRRRRRRRRRRR

Hi, Anyone traveled this road lately? 3 borders to cross at Corona times... Miss my boat... TIA

Thanks guys for a lot of great info. Will need time to go over all of it... Question...Is it a problem to connect shore power charging together with solar? Will it harm the batts by over charging?

Hi. So far had no solar on my boat. Planning to add a 100W solar panel this season. Can anyone make me a list of "what to buy" for this project and maybe a "where to buy" list too? 2 batts 130x2 AH for service 1 55AH starter batt Many thanks.

I have an almost new RayMarine fluxgate compass for sale at a VERY low price if interested.

How about using the old rusted SS water trap parts as an inside mold to be covered with PVC layers and re install it? I think I read about someone who did it and said it worked.

Replaced with new. You may enjoy another sailing season or two with it. A small tear on upper side otherwise still useable. 150 euros + shipping.

Hi, The Plastimo Olimpic 135 compass is with only 1/3 of its liquid and needs re filling. Working fine and not leaking. New price-200 euros. will sell for 50+shipping if you are ready to play with it. The CAV filter is my OEM filter before the upgrade I made. Comes with 1 new inner filter...

Thank you all. Time will tell.

Hi, My cheap ebay dingy is losing its shape after a day or two from full inflation. can't find from where the air is getting lost? Is there any wonder stuff like in car tires that can be put inside it via a valve that will repair leakages from the inside? Many thanks.

Hi Brian, Sent you a PM with the asked info.

Hi Brian, On my next exit from the lagoon I'll try to write down the coordinates of the spoken spot. I'm leaving here on 8/9 if you'r back by then and want to talk/meet just send me a PM. Enjoy your cruising.

Many thanks Barnac1e. Will use your good advises. My draught is 1.65m only. That's why I was so amazed to find myself at dawn siting on top a small sand bar half way from my marina to the Lignano exit. I was at the center of the inner channel when it happened. Boat was at a speed of 4-5 Kns. A...
