Helens walking round the Isle of Wight next weekend over 3 days so we're booked into east Cowes from Friday night to Sunday night. I've hired a car to meet her at various lunch stops and collect her after each day.

Yep, hoping for a good bank holiday. Rafiki is ready to go now, new impellers, engine anodes (10 per engine!), oil etc.

10!! Where are they all? Must make servicing quite a bit more expensive, especially if, as on ours, the anodes should really be replaced every 3 months (have never done this but I guess it prevents the old anode dropping into the water system and causing a partial blockage).

4 in the intercooler, 3 in the heat exchanger, 3 in the trans cooler. Should be 1 in the exhaust elbow, but we couldn't find this on either engine. I don't think these had been looked at for several years. Bought them from Boatzinc.com in the States, 30% of the price over here.

I think it was them I used to obtain anodes for my genny, but mine were only about half UK price.

It depends which exhaust you have, as most likely to be an aftermarket riser.
