Thanks a lot everyone. Looks as though a trip to the Solent might be on the cards. The only mention for the Dart area is negative and one of the alternatives is Westaway.:(
Inspired by the glorious spring weather our thoughts have turned to a cockpit enclosure. We're based on the Dart. Anybody got any recommendations? If anyone has had an enclosure recently I'd be interested in the price. I know dimensions will be different but a ball park figure would be...
We fitted 4 of these at the beginning of last season. Not long enough to provide any useful data on longevity but I will say that (subjectively) they seem to recharge from solar on the morning much quicker than the SLAs they replaced.
So, if I understand correctly, we just need the VAT nonsense sorted and we'll be able to buy/sell leisure boats within the EU again. AS Dunedin says bad news for boat builders but good news for the rest of us.

Thanks everyone. A secondary if I may. Anybody have any idea of the power usage of , say, A 500w microwave over a a half hour period. I'm assuming that it will not draw full power over the whole period. Same question for air fryer.
These may seem stupid questions but I can't find answers anywhere.
I am aware that some appliances draw much more than their stated power on start up, but is there any way of finding how much. As an example I have a 1600w inverter - could I run a 1kw air fryer or a 600w microwave?
If I manage...
I've nearly exhausted my last 4.5 Calor cylinder and, like everyone else, am finding it impossible to source a replacement. Having now been shafted twice (we used to use camping gaz) I'm keen to switch to another supplier. Our local marina have switched to Flogas but are not able to supply new...
