Hi Roger

I could do with some for the hand pump shaft in the loo.
Will see you at Fit-up to sort the size required if that is o.k.
Thanks for the kind offer.
 
Lisa - yes. That size is BS011 but I've only got 20 :D Is it urgent (can deliver to boat tomorrow) or wait for Fit Up or post to you. How many?

Clive - will empty my cockpit locker to make room for them :D

BRILLIANT! - Marc will be most pleased. :D You would not believe the moaning that I suffered last night while he lamented the lack of an appropriate o ring. Your posting was miraculous timing!

yes please post - will reimburse as appropriate. Will PM my address. Thanks Moodysabre!

MWAH!!
 
I would like several large ones as my valued Customer is shafting me beyond the durability of my current sealing arrangement.

Lisa , just in case Marc (or anyone else really) needs O rings , seals , bearings , etc etc etc and MS can't help with one or two ;) I have found the following usefull , www.bearingboys.co.uk , I used them when I serviced my road trailers wheels/bearings .......
 
First off, thanks to Roger for the o rings he sent to Marc - much appreciated.

However, I hadn't told Marc that Roger would be sending them and in the meantime or ordered two. See the result in the picture.

I didn't know what he was ordering and I was utterly gobsmacked at the price when I saw the ridiculously teeny items that actually arrived. :eek:

Visited Beyond Reason yesterday for battery charge and check over. Found water in the light that's attached to the horseshoe lifebouy. Suspected O ring was to blame so took it off and visited chandler's for replacement. They didn't have one the right size.

As I'm an idiot, I didn't measure it or anything useful like that. It's still on the boat. What should I do, collect it next time I visit boat then send it to you? Not sure I would know how to measure an O ring.

Fill the groove with Vaseline and screw back together using the old O ring until the new one arrives....... mine tend to last from year to year using this method.
