    Happy New Year everyone!

    Closing the year with a video, which I believe reflects a glimpse of the tension and fun that have been going around :P


     

    Hello my dear, I'm Rob new here too, I see you had trouble inserting things on your post, if you still have trouble with insertions just call uncle Rob. In fact there's quite a few in these forums I would assist with insertions if ever given the chance.

    How did you lose it? 

     

    Sorry Buddy missed this, were you talking to Rob?

    Well we were 14 and Susie and me walked through the meadows to the orchard, we spent an idyllic afternoon picking fruit in the warm sunshine. She was the girl all the boys in the class wanted, and here she was out with old Rob, her hair shining in the sun.

    Exhausted we lay down on a blanket in the meadow and opened a picnic she had made, after the sandwiches she gazed into my eyes and passing a Bakewell tart, in a husky voice she said 'Would you like my cherry?'

     

    The rest is history

     

    🤣

    I have just lost my Prestige which was level 61 on  MW2 Freeze Tag146.I was Wondering if there was a way to get it back because when the server is full I would be kicked from the server straight away because my prestige will be so low.

    I am sorry, coming from Dorset your prestige is naturally low, but on the plus side it is hours played not prestige that applies. PM me and for a very reasonable fee I can raise your prestige and self esteem, unfortunately that is all I can raise unless you purchase my discreet brown envelopes, delivered by bat to your house at night.

     

    Your faithful servant

    Well we weren't aware of any water issues with the engine until after we had been underway on our sea trial.

    Virtually every nook and cranny (short of drilling holes) was explored on this vessel.  Every stringer within the bilge and sumps were resonance checked and moisture tested.

    The thermal imaging camera was also used on the inside and outside of the hull to check for temperature inconsistencies which would have identified any voids in the hull core.

    This guys is SAMS@ AMS@ certified and a Certified Level III Thermographer.  He knows his shit  🙂

    OK but with all petrol engines and diesels (when able) on boats (or anything else) if it has been standing for a long time it is prudent to spin the engines over with plugs out or cocks open (diesel). Then if you see any water coming out you know you have problems, if you don't you may have bigger problems, holed pistons one of them).

    I would take out plugs, examine with borescope, if ok turn over, put plugs back or close cocks then start, expect white smoke at first as moisture will be there. However if engines warmed up and white smoke still there further investigation is required. I have seen many owners leave their boats for over 6 months, rock up, start the engines then examine their bank accounts to cover the result of not doing 30 minutes work.

    Other than that no surveyor will go much further than that other than to take oil samples from the engines,

    Unless you tell him to? Oil samples are good though and should show any problems in engines, but personally I would have borescoped before starting any engine if I suspected water damage. Thermal imaging is good (especially for electrics on larger vessels) and should show defective combustion, direct drive would be my preferred choice too, but watch those seals.

    Resonance testing is a good quick check, but in my humble opinion does not supercede the MK 1 eyeball and a thorough crawl around.

  8. You will just have to believe me but I know a lot about boats

    1/. I can't picture what you mean about stbd engine leaking on both manifolds?? and possibly getting back into the engine. BIG RED FLAG, as boats stand for ages any ingress of water into the engines can cause catastrophic and expensive damage (rust), you need the engine internals examined (borescope minimum) surveyor should have known this fact well.

    2/. ANY signs of osmosis in a fibreglass vessel should warrant further investigations, did he crawl through internally and test??? another Red Flag, if it's in one part it may be starting in others, repair costs are horrendous

    3/. Sounds right but carefully examine any stern seals, they are degraded with vibration, is she Z drive?

    4/. OK

     

    Don't want to scare you, just want you to get good value buddy

     

  9. Politics aside, seriously, watching this man perform on his Irish tour was painful, if he was your Dad/Grandad you would have him in care for his own welfare. All countries should have an age limit on their leaders, I'm not being ageist but this man shows worrying traits of behaviour associated with natural degeneration. If his political opponent gets in next time you're going to have the same scenario?
