Re: The Reality of Living in Australia and Covid

Australia is a tyrannical bully country and should be boycotted by every industry.
Their tyrannical views fly in the face of what Yachting and the cruising lifestyle is all about.

Re: jabsco flush problem

Its a fresh water flush so there should be no inlet problem,
sounds like the cam thing or "valve" is the problem. How could it be the joker when it seems to work fine in dry mode?

Re: installing a tachometer
