Re: Galley Box
Every time I have cooked in the boat on anchor, with the stove on the cockpit floor, a large motor launch waits until the food has just started boiling, and then motors past at maximum displacement to create a wake large enough to send the meal everywhere :x That must be the same basket who visits ...

Re: USEFUL STUFFS
RTM has its Black Friday cattle dog sale online with lots of stuff . I had a quick look at the lithium batteries out of curiosity and for a lark scrolled down to the most expensive one :o :o :o :o 3233C4C6-6EF7-4733-9A8B-034FCA2C57E8.jpeg I don’t think I’ll be building my own electric yacht any time...

Whisker Pole control lines
https://forums.ybw.com/threads/whisker-pole-control-lines.603410/ I’d be interested in comments on this thread from PBO. I normally only use my whisker pole on the occasional long run down the lake if winds are light and if that’s the case I’m luxuriating on the cabin top with a beer and controlling...

Re: Galley Box
My wife has a silicon tray (quite thin) you can bake on and we have silicon tubes with a slit on the side I bought from I think the reject shop that you bung over the front of your slide out oven shelves to stop you burning yourself on them when hot. So must be tough stuff . Gal sheet would be prett...

Re: Galley Box
Nice job Andrew. Maybe you could use the slide off door for alt purposes too. Silicone heat sheet attached as hot pot rest or thin cutting board attached to surface as cutting board? Keep publishing. The 16 footer dude has a good setup but it’s definitely a single berth arrangement. Would be cramped...

Re: Galley Box
Good to experiment Andrew. Perfect the design and you could market them ! I have my Aldi nesting cookware and washing up stuff in the tub depression under the port quarter berth and my single maxi and coffee/tea/Bonox etc in a plastic Tupperware style box in the v berth area. But you do have to muck...

Re: Where can I buy toerail
Champion job Ian. Proving investigator owners are not quitters 8-) Worth the effort. Toe rail IMHO is a most important safety feature. It makes moving around the boat much safer and sure footed. At heel or level . Black toerail adds 2k to the value of the boat I always say, particularly when matched...

Re: Today at Valentine
True Andrew. There were lots of Herons on the Lake in my younger years. I guess they are still around I just don’t notice. A bit like my ramblings on “built from scratch” control line aircraft. Currently you can get an “off the shelf” drone from Jaycar and be in the air three minutes after arriving ...
