    Bukh 20 overheating

    Thank you for this idea (plastic bag). It's a simple way to block the bypass and I can imagine how to do it on my MD11C.

    Waterlock Mounting for raw water cooled engine

    I think Vetus state their plastic waterlock should not exceed 70 C. Mine is 0.2m from the exhaust elbow of a 23 hp Volvo MD11c. Yesterday I measured 50 C with an infra red thermometer on the outside of the plastic after 5 and 10 minutes at full ahead.

    Might be time to buy a sextant

    At the risk of drifting into current affairs it is worth noting there may be other reasons we lose GPS signal in the near future...

    WADE fittings defunct?

    This is bad news. I found them really helpful when I was plumbing in a Taylor's paraffin cooker.

    Battens for headlining

    Centaur forecabin. I used 50x50x10mm hardwood blocks rather than softwood to make unscrewing and rescrewing more secure. "No more nails" has worked well for six years.
