Re: Engine runs 10 minutes then stops

Also, check that there’s not a plugged screen on the pick up inside the tank. I’ve been on two boats where that was an issue.

Re: Navionics charts for "South Pacific"

Really useful are satellite charts and software like open CPN. You can actually see the motus that aren’t always plotted on navionics charts when traveling in the atolls

Re: MacGyver help needed

I have loosened the clamp, but it didn’t seem to want to rotate with it really loose. I’m sure it will, I will try again, and I think use the can trick, or else the tinfoil, and then clamp it back...
