Re: 4+2 pump out

Clive is this for the toilet ?
Our boat has a cassette toilet, if your tank is where the pilots seat is, then that's where are leisure and starter batteries are on our boat.
It's amazing how the same boats are so different, even if they are the same year.

Re: We have just bought a boat !

Clive,
Sorry to hear you did not get to boat, the two vertical pieces of wood at the front must be additions, because all the other boats I have seen don't have them, I have removed them, and the interior looks a lot bigger and lets more light in now. The result is I have to replace the curtain ...

Re: Shetland 4+2

What year is your boat - I have just bought one, and was wondering the same thing. A pic would be useful.

Re: We have just bought a boat !

Been out on the river Trent this weekend, had lots of fun and found some new friends.
Here are a few pics of the inside.
On the left is the water container, and on the right the ballast to offset it. A full tank causes the boat to list over though.

The toilet port hole opens, but has visible signs of it leaking, seems there is a groove for ...
