Might be no issue with that boat but there are plenty of GRP boats that would be seriously compromised by being suspended on a few pads.

You’d have to be very careful about how much load is on each pad of the cradle. Boats normally rest on the hard with most of their weight on their keels and the cradle taking a little load but mostly just keeping the boat upright.

That’s the story we’d heard and been warned about. However we sailed that coast 18 months ago and had zero hassles with tunny nets. In fact we hugged the coast staying in about 17 metres of water or less to avoid the orcas. I admit it was close to flat calm day after day so there was no problem...

Why not hug the coast. What’s the problem?

Many forumites know that RumPirate extends a welcome and the promise of the first drink at his favourite beach bar to any forum member visiting.. For anyone thinking of sailing to the Caribbean, St Kitts should be on your bucket list. It’s a lovely island and RumPirate is a great host. (We...

You’ll have to ask him about that. We borrowed the Mountgay bottle from behind the bar.

Sahara dust has traveled a long way?

Hint (as if one was necessary.)

Are you changing model of loo or replacing like for like? Pipes changed as well?
