what flexi joint do you have, alignment there would be where I would start, experienced something similar on our old Y88. Flexi joint was the issue.

Yup, i second going offshore my go to https://dieselpartseurope.com/

As above, you are limited to the stroke of the unit combined with resistance of drive in standby mode.

Nothing like the outflows in Tahiti et al... the solution to pollution is dilution was the response we got when last chartering up there, no holding tanks.

Great looking boat in the link there Liz!

We have had good success removing various sealants with this https://www.burnsco.co.nz/adhesive-cleaner-425g?gclid=Cj0KCQjwn_OlBhDhARIsAG2y6zMjQfWdFQ0m_8x5Sd_ZnwGxtITtk-svFxgSP7dIw6wkNewtqPo71yAaAtr8EALw_wcB Wont be cheap, but really is spray it on, wait 5 mins and scrap it off.

Yes, as required by legislation, however a Friday is not a weekend. The above mentioned drivers, too are entitled to penal rates for yesterday.

Not quite the case. I think you will find that the unionised NZ Bus drivers (Auckland) want the new rate and retain all of the original terms associated with previous agreements. I for one can't remember the last time I was paid double time to work on the weekend, or at night, definiately have never been paid $60/h to do so.

We had a booking coming out 25 July. Had a phone call from the office today cancelling our booking, property has been sold Pier 21 are no more. I think the date may have been from 22 July, can't remember that part of the conversation.

Pretty sure the lower housing is removable, you''l then be left with a deck mount puck. Looks to be the same style as B&G antenna which we deck mounted.

Yup, will take it.... sold.

We used to use squash balls under concrete pavers to support turntables in nightclubs/dance parties etc. We replaced them every month or so. They rapidly lose the air within and quickly become a mush of rubber when under constant pressure.

Markone may be available, PM me and ill give you owners details.

Yes, mostly, cool live demand website. https://www.transpower.co.nz/power-system-live-data

Hi Scotty, Ill take it. PM me please. thanks Brad

Yes, replaced the thermocouple with aliexpress https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32787929278.html I should have ordered 4 to have one spare. No doubt the others will fail at some point. If you order, do so with the slowest shipping, make them cheap as chips. If you are in urgent need I have one spare you could have now while waiting for shipping.

We have just been through this over Easter weekend. Winch has been slowing down over the past year. Solution was to remove the motor, leaving winch drum in place. Dismantled the drive motor, cleaned with brakleen. Removed a lot of old grease, the brushes where gunked up, my guess is this may be your issue. Get the bushes moving freely and in good contact. they don't like a build up of grease where conductivity need to occur. Spray the stator and brushes with CorrossionX. Grease where required. Reassemble and we are away. In fact, i would say she spools faster than ever since we have owned the

Ye we did ours pretty much the same though was up in a craddle on the hardstand. We used a rigging lifting strap thrown over the boom and chain block. Got it to xyz position, released tension, shimmed the strap further out, hoist push out, repeat. We have a 3YM30 so similar in weight. I wouldn't hesitate to do the same again with the boat in the water. 2 person job but saved a Hiab in and out.

May want to have a rethink of your statement above HT, pretty sure Dalts got onboard after the 2003 campaign. https://emirates-team-new-zealand.americascup.com/en/team/34_GRANT-DALTON.html

Vernon is a kiwi, great production and imagery in his vlogs https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgF3P33zmbewXrksprcvFJA

Thanks Matt, have tried the clean to no avail. Will give Aliexpress a shot.

yeah no problem, hopefully someone out there has what we require!

thermocouple for the grill would see us right for a few more years.

If you have either a prince or princess, working or not please get in touch. thanks Brad

Zatara stopped at Minerva, therefore restarting their clock. They released a comprehensive video of Fiji's "Blue Lanes" initiative. Something that could easily be modified and adopted to apply here. Based on where our current MIQ facilities are located, near large hospitals, hence why Queenstown wasn't utilised, I wouldn't expect this government to allow en mass Q at Opua.
