Too Tr
I doubt it. Women are weird about boats. Mine is more comfortable than a house, with mains power throughout on demand, a full size flush toilet and bath,and central heating, and is one of the fastest boats on the system.
But my wife will only occasionally cruise on it, and will never live on it.
Whatever you do, most women will find another excuse, too small, too big, not enough windows, too many windows, not enough hard floors, not enough carpet, etc.
Too true,
Mines the same about living on a narrow boat right against it
I was on about an ocean going cruiser and still the same issues and the locations didn't seem to make much difference,
 
Get the battery properly tested.
The little green thing is all very well but only use it as a rough guide.
FWIW I've just replaced the battery on my Sprinter. Little green thing showing but only enough oomph to turn it over for a few seconds & slowly at that.
Overnight charge & all seemed fine but a couple of spins & that was it.
New battery (from Tayna, ordered about 6.30pm & delivered next day before 2.00pm) and all is well again - made me realise that the old one had been on its way out for some time.
It is the time of year for battery problems, on vehicles of any kind.
 
Nope. I don't mind singlehanding, and she is OK with my boating so long as I make regular appearances to put up shelves, sweep chimneys, and take stuff to the tip.
She doesn't look in the Range Rover section anyway, as she isn't much interested in them.

You think she wont see this and then wont save it up for when you do "finally" go ome, good luck with that;).

SORTED!
£40 including carriage for tested, 150amp "Thor" alternator.
Ordered from William Chetwynd (Lincoln breaker of P38's) at 15:30hrs yesterday, arrived very well packaged before noon today. A bloke vising the Old Beverley Shipyard bolted it on for me - wouldn't accept any payment - and P38 now running as it should again!
Thanks for all your comments guys!
Mike.
A very happy bunny again !
 
Tried to get the long haired colonel to consider a liveaboard boat, Med, Caribbean, all to no avail. have you ever tried to try and slam a revolving door??? Same as arguing or trying to convince a woman of a good idea!! sure i am in for some digs over this post o_O:(:p
Only if she reads it mate.having owned boats in the past I can vouch for the remark once said to me" there are two great days owing a boat,the day you buy it and the day you sell it" :eek: boat ownership can be compared with taking a shovel to a body of water, digging a hole and throwing money into it. A lot more expensive than a swimming pool @Mark Piercy ;).:D
