Office888 I'd be very interested in seeing the repair process as I'm seriously tempted to get this to try and fix. It seems a shame to let it go and is literally 5 minutes from me.

I live on the south coast and all summer have been launching our 430 quicksilver out of Fowey and spending much time in St Austell bay. Loads of beaches and marine life and even in the height of...

SORTED !!!!

I've got that same pump as Chris. Yesterday I spent a bit of time checking out how the pressure reads on the gauge. The outcome being that connecting the pipe to the valve opens it...

Thanks again all. I'd completely forgot that the sea temp will have that effect. By the way, what pump did you buy?

We haven't got round to finalising a name for ours and hadn't thought of putting a name on for some reason. Though I like Sybil, it's not been settled yet as I'm sure it's been done before.

ok thanks again. I'll try further adjustments, my main concern to start with was whether I am getting enough air and if I was reading the gauge right whilst pumping.

Thanks Gurnard appreciate the input. The boat planes easily enough with 5 up and we could get it to plane with 7 though we had to shuffle forward a bit. I must admit I wouldn't believe it myself if I...
