Not sure that I agree with you wheels, some of the older diesel additives have no biocide in them and are quite safe, warranty wise with your new diesel, they say that they have emulsifiers in them to carry the moisture through the diesel easier such as Diesel power, Groco or some such name . They also wont reduce the lubricity of the diesel as many of the biocides do. But preferably as already stated buy fuel from a high turnover outlet keep your tanks full and maintain good filtration before the engine.

Have experienced the same pre approval thingy at Tutukaka, annoying in this day and age that it does not sort itself in five minutes after the completed transaction. Be aware that Go-fuel at westhaven are treating their fuel with Biocide and advertise the fact as a plus!! No diesel manufacturer that I know of will recommend putting this in. Clean fuel is what they want not additives added to mask moisture in the fuel and kill the resultant bug. The fuel shops around Auckland know only too well the result of this dosing on injectors and injection pumps.

And for the PSS face seal type you can now get a collar to prevent it creeping on the shaft , and the spares kits are readily available

Should hope so, after a rudimentary glance there seems to be amazingly little damage to SJ considering the impact and damage to the Genesis, however you would have to look aboard her i guess, Wood is Good!

F1 starts this weekend

Not to mention Reactive the Townson 25 hit by a ferry off bayswater, about three years after being hit by a pleasure boat as Active in the same spot, KM it must be the North Shore -some magnetic pull

Not to mention the Salthouse 62 that hit the Reactor at Glendowie a few years back - result Reactor afloat on mooring, salthouse 62 sunk off Bucks - just been sold again that one I think she is up to name no 5 .

Lotus 9.2 Bilge keel will outsail a shoalcraft

Not too mention all those city lights reflecting off the gold chain and medallion round your neck in the windscreen

Or through the bottom of a glass

Yes and no mention of the square barnacles introduced to NZ from thenorth from the NRC, perhaps they should be giving boats a free clean before we come south from up there.

If a production European yacht is what you want then this is a great way to get it, as long as you can take the time off work. We all have the internet now so you wont make money come selling time, but the boat will have cost you a lot less upfront and if its the one you want then you wont be selling...

Nothing to fear as at the moment if you steer clear of marinas....

Results?

The chain kicker is missing?

She sure did, if you saw the start they were in position and racing from the gun

Pahi has been gone over from windex to lead in the last few years and is a credit to her owner, everything is new and sparkling including the "mahogany" prod to enable her to carry some extra RNI sails. Running Yanmar engine and Gori prop as were the first three over the line.

Most likely it is 303 or 304

Update on the race? We sailed in sunshine and moderate breeze for squadron final cruising race to Waiheke, so I was wondering how the Panmure boats went?

Any update on Squeeler, Jet and Celadon?

Happy teeth might enjoy that sausage - bit of variety from Orakei Parore

The 52's here have had a bit of biffo lately too. I believe that sled was built here a year or two back.

Looks like a Roberts Spray and if its their home no wonder they didnt scuttle her and intend going after her in a bit.

Yep just booked a return run on the Norfolk Broads

P Brookes doing the rebuild, he is the best in NZ for it so she will turn out better than ever.
