E boat.......... handy boat that one, lovely lines and quick with it! I was down in Newquay a few weeks ago, doesn't look that deep to me, I'd guess aberystwyth is the nearest marina? my boat needs 7' to float........ newquay dries out at low water and I really don't fancy refloating mine after...

DaveD, not a problem, I don't race much anymore but my old boat (1983 vintage) is still quick on her heels and can show most of the current one designs her transom in most winds above a 5, and that's loaded up with comfort, they're stripped to the ribs but in heavy weather really suffer :)...

If anyone wants to come out for a sail, I've a 40' Hartley 15 tonne yacht, not a lot of high winds around but come september...... last year, got caught out in a force 9 coming back from northern scotland and...

OK, Basically, Max Grant, secretary of NWAIMOR, look up the anacronism is you want to know what it stands for. Basically, they campaign for sensible and sustainable use of rights of way, but also against 4x4 on RoW because they believe that there is no place for the likes of us. I've...

Well, me old chippolatas' Update................ I've heard through the grapevine that the local police are to start to hand out S59 notices again on the Sarn............. but.......... Only in response to substantiated complaints. They don't have the manpower to police the right of way...

how about a generator ? eblag have plenty....... a little 2 stroke would do the job, about 500w peak. Then a combined mixer - amplifier unit, pair of cheapo speakers, or hire them in from a local pa company? Easy solution.

The conversion of Watts to Amps is governed by the equation Amps = Watts/Volts For example 12 watts/12 volts = 1 amp 150 watts/12 volts = 12.5 amps, if you have a 110Ah battery, (bear in mind that leisure batteries are designed for slow discharge,) the on-load voltage will remain constant...
