    Espresso Machines

    New Shower Trick

    Have you fitted a new freshwater pump recently. We had this issue immediately after a new Jabsco pump was professionally fitted to replace our defunct original Whale. We too didn't notice the issue with our other freshwater outlets (maybe because we weren't standing under the other taps?). As...

    We could ask the OP but it would be (so far) a fairly short thread if Beneteau Swift mods only wanted!

    1994 42' Ocean Alexander 423 Classico

    Although initially looking for an Ocean Alexander, we (as you can see) ended up with a slightly smaller Swedish boat (38ft) which we love. Found this one in Nthn Ireland. We are at present at Whangarei, part way through a month's excursion up to the far north of NZ.

    Hello all from Binic France!

    Bonjour Joel, Welcome to the forum. I have found much useful information here. You live in a wonderful place to be cruising! After our Nimbus Owners 3 day AGM/Rally in Lymington, UK, we had a marvellous 2 weeks in France in May this year. We absolutely loved St Malo, Dinan and Brittany in...

    Dutch Mermaid down under

    Welcome to the forum. Love your boat which would (unfortunately) be too big for us. We imported a Swedish Nimbus 380 Commander from N.Ireland just before last Christmas which we keep, at present, at Hobsonville Marina. We have ambitions to bring her round East Cape and down the Wairarapa Coast...
