I have a 20L Isotherm slim,line water heater. When we picked the boat up we discovered the heater was not working one 240v. No great deal we had a big trip to do and the unit worked perfectly off the Port engine.... Though one thing I did notice, was damn it was hot! Even trying to get cold...

After 4 years of love, I think the time maybe near where my beloved 330 and I may seperate.... Seriously considering the move to a 36' fly bridge. Australian Riviera. The admiral needs the more friendly cockpit / saloon layout, for her back issues etc. and I need the fishing set up, and the...

We went fishing last Sunday, unfortunately unsuccessfully. On the way back in, we were still around 7-8 mile off the coast, when we spotted a whale tale finning. We slowed and stopped the required distance. However someone forgot to notify the whales about the 200M rule. The next time they...

Hi Guys a few totally non boating photo's for you. Spring is officially September here, but no one tells the native flora that of course. These photos are taken from my driveway. The gold trees are wattle, puts a smile on my face every morning and afternoon, absolutely beautiful. Will also give...

Hi Guys, I normally head over here 2-3 times a year, for various reasons just had not happened this year, but felt I needed to show my face in a couple of factories. Easy trip this time, as I have stayed within 5 hours of Shanghai, so a trade show in Shanghai on arrival, then a 5 hour drive to...
