  1. I think you've done a good job with the splits Jon...They seem pretty fair and reasonable to me
  2. The Spectra has an auto flush so you can leave it on and it willclean itself every 24hours. But its a prick of a thing to setup. I did that for 2 years until I tirned it off in error and wasnt able to easily set up the auto flush again. But in saying that, I pickled mine as it was a pain in the arse and I wasnt even using it... and when I did turn it on, I managed to root the membrane. A water maker guru told me the Spectra was the worst product on the market that he services/repairs. I didnt ask him why though, I just wanted it fixed and shut down. Instead Ive plumped the roof to collect w

If it was hours or nautical miles it easily would be cruising. I answered the former, but a marginal call. What is interesting is how boats, or at least their owners, don't seem to be able to do both in the same boat so much. Much of the fleet seems to be in one corner or the other I think. Which is a pit
  8. Do you do air fills Rental? Sweet Jesus Mary I drive past you every day for 13 years and didnt even know you are there..even sneak the occasional roll from the frogs place
