NEW - Raymaine 30M masthead wind transducer cable and socket.

There has been a lot of discussion on the YouTube channel following on from this video about lightning protection on boats. Seems to be a really contentious area. I'm of the opinion that its mostly down to luck and and not being in the wrong place. There are loads of sailors stuck in parts of...
Hi,
A friend has bought an sc29 (2007) and one of the minor problems is the radio/cd does not pick up any stations. The tv Ae is also dead but I know where all the components are so should be easily fixed. The Volvo mechanic will be busy sorting out the other issues.
I've been through the...
