Have another go tomorrow on the pictures, there’s some Forum fault at the moment.

No idea tbh. I assume M5, M6, M74. I’ve got an air tag onboard so will be ‘tracking’ her on the road journey!

James from C2C is going to get the driver to take some loading pictures so we post on receipt in the morning hopefully.

Teak renovation. Hard to tell if this is up to my high standards, time will tell!

Looks good. What work was done and what treatment did they use?

 

[Seastoke]

Is it wet.

We turned back the chalk and two part cleaned it 2 or 3 times, then used Semco cleartone to seal it.

Not sure it’s that clean to be honest. I use aglaze 2 part on my teak so may need to get fine in a few months time and resealed again with the semco.

Might be ok in the flesh, I’ll know Friday, she’s on her way to her new berth.

Service stop to check tie downs.

I would love to see your face when you step on her. Are you fitting the name

I’ll do a selfie! Names all ready to go on. I’ll get that done over the weekend if the weather holds up.

Not sure mate.

Safely berthed

Nice job, how did you go on with the hi low

Haven’t tested yet, the engineers basically said that I need to hold the button for a few seconds when the platform hits home. They are blaming user error. I’ll try tomorrow and see.

Lovely seeing such a nice boat coming up to Cameron House. I have my new (to me) 2008 Four Winns 248 Vista coming up to Balmaha for the season after buying it in Southampton last week and some maintenance and upgrades being completed in a boatyard in Poole over the next 2-3 weeks.

Sounds exciting. And thanks for comments.

Sign on. Very impressed by the quality for a reasonable price. Thank you @petem.

A quick question on shorepower. My boat has 2 shorepower connections, each 32 amps is my understanding.

At my home berth I’ve been given a 16amp socket with a 24 amp breaker. The marine post can’t handle any more amperage without upgrading the cable.

When I run AC Heating, I can only run 2 of the units, out of 4 available without causing a p5 pwr error on the displays.

What’s the thoughts on what I need to get this working as per design?

I’m only connected to shorepower 1 socket on the boat.

Well firstly, there is no way a 16Amp socket should be protected by a 24 amp mcb. Well thinking, I am sure they don’t make a 24 amp mcb . So firstly ask them what breaker you are on ,maybe 25 type b or c. If so ask to have the socket changed for a 32 amp. Which can be used on a lower mcb size. Do they have any 32 sockets anywhere . On your socket post how many 16 amp sockets is there.
