    Recommend me a single hander sailing dinghy please

    For that sort of money you can't go wrong with a laser, doesn't matter where you go there's always another laser to race against, which is better having some one to compare against on the water rather then wanting for the results to be published

    Ryde isle of wight - harbour entrance silting up

    Autohelm st50 - raymarine st60 swap

    Hi all, there are various threads on here and all over the Internet that suggest it's a fairly straight swap over to upgrade the st50 head units to St 60's.

I had a excellent of timber that went across the door way into the forepeak hat could be installed with 2 bolts (quick and easy) the engine would then be hung across this timber

    Navionics renewal

    I've tried the b&g app before but didn't find c-maps as easy to use as navionics, I do like the link app they use so can view the plotter screen on the ipad

    Navionics renewal

    Navionics app on my phone tells me there's 8 days left before renewal. Last summer I purchased a b&g plotter and a navionics card, very good it is too. Can I link the accounts so I'm not paying for 2 subscriptions? Obviously Obviously card for the plotter is more, and I'm happy to pay for...

    Leaving a harbour at night

    I keep my boat at the top of Portsmouth Harbour, QHM( I assume) kindly removed the lights from the plies, (the few that were lit) earlier this year. Plus the yachts whose moorings are actually in the channel, makes it interesting at times
