I am looking for a place to leave the boat in June for a couple of months either in the water or in dry dock near Skiathos. We have a flight going out from Skiathos so anywhere in the area would be great. Even Volos as there are frequent ferries from there to Skiathos. Any suggestions?

I’ve seen this boat for sale and I’m interested but a bit concerned about the complexity of the rig. See picture. What do people think about this fractional rig? The boat has a big ballast and fairly heavy displacement at 6.5t (35ft boat). 45% ballast to displacement ratio. From what I can see...

Has anyone ever heard of the New Gambler 35? All I know is that it's an old Swedish IOR style design by Rolf Magnusson, but that's it.

I have seen this Dehler 36 1991 which could be a real bargain….but there are a few things to consider. - The owner has left her unused on dry dock for 6 or 7 years. - I haven’t started the engine yet… - The insides look in good order but it’s obviously been taking in some water from the decks...

Hi, I have an old but very efficient Autohelm 2000 tiller pilot which works fine except occasionally it starts beeping (a fast continuous beep) while it's on. Once I press stand by and auto it will engage again. What is it caused by? Is it the connection? Or is it to with the setting (there's a...

The first set of panels will be connected to one domestic battery and the other one wired to the second domestic...

The impeller on my Yanmar 3Ym20 broke and I have lost the blade. I checked in the pipe going out from the water pump and I suspect it travelled up into the engine. I read somewhere that it might have got stuck in the heat exchanger, which is only accessible by dismantling the alternator. Is...

I finally decided to buy a small fridge for my boat in Greece. It will be a small 20L compressor unit like the Alpicool K25 or the Mestic MCC-25. Their given consumption is 1amp/h for the Alpicool and 0.65 kWh/24h for the Mestic. At the moment I have a 40W solar panel charging a 100Ah domestic...

I had a reasonable quote from Takis Boatyard in Aegina but I just wanted reassurance about a couple of things. - How good is Takis in sticking to the agreed day and time of hauling and launching? I am asking because I usually go sailing in Greece for 4 weeks in June and 2 or 3 weeks in...

I am looking for someone to replace rudder bearings and fit a sprayhood to my boat currently sitting at Almira boatyard near Corinth canal in Greece. The yacht services at the yard are next to useless at the moment so I was wondering whether anyone has a good contact?
