my wife used the gym example when we initially spoke about it

so I'll take that as a definite no - boredom getting he best of me! Just thought if it was good enough for McDonalds...

Has anyone thought that there may be some fee/rent relief during the lock down, particularly if it goes on for more than 4 weeks? particularly where your access/ use has been materially altered? or is this covered by force majeure?

not the case in Canterbury under Regional Council bylaws - all craft must have some identifying number at least 90mm high marked on the vessel...most often use their trailer number if trailer or their sailboat registration number

Brad, we did one yesterday and used 5200 fast cure to bed in thruhull. As far as I know the boat hasn't sunk yet...

Get drill to winch adapter bit and use drill?

nice presentation Matt...Have finally purchased precision 9, zeus 3, wireless depth, speed and wind, a few triton 2s and AIS transceiver - looking forward to installation and commissioning in due course

height as in VMG right?

Twin needle - tuam street

+ 1 for duralac on any fastenings into aluminium

That looks like a very cool ride.

happy looking like a twat if I'm not dying...

SPF50 plus, polarised sunglasses, broad brimmed hat and now neck, face shield as well...very easy to get burnt now. Not worth it.

Thanks BP understood the physics....was struggling to conceptualize the likely wave period and probable amplitude to create such effects

Bp...not sure how that works with my previous example ...serious effects in a submarine at 400ft deep!

Talking to a well known sailing ex submariner the other day...he recounted a story of a RN submarine rolling violently 400ft submerged in the Bay of Biscay during a storm..so yes I think it could affect things if the water shallows

agreed...doesn't replace the printed guide but very useful

Lotta marketing speak...but no stated anticipated cycle life...look expensive in the link above

Also important that an AGM has airflow around it as they can get warm while going through charging cycle.

Berth rental has just increased in Marlborough as well

Yip, if you have to look up...you are too close and not keeping a proper watch

Also, while you are at it you said Zeus 2 right ?...make sure software is up to date.

I have a 930 like SMU and currently have # 10. I'm moving to vivid as it is the next best thing. It is great as it availble in smaller volumes than many of the other brands. Reality is that due to Ministry of Environment concerns around Heavy metals the AF products are arguably not as effective as they once were. Vivid is a so called semi ablative...it is quite soft but it works. I have had a trial on our rudder blade in Marlborough and am impressed with its performance thus far.

What is stopping just fairing in a tube with a one way valve? Cheaper surely. Anderson bailer off the shelf is at least $100.00
