  1. I CBA arguing with you though. I’m just trying to help Lady G based on my own personal experience of Ee and THM
  2. Send a text message from the mifi to your phone to find out it’s mobile number if needs be
  3. Lyca and talk home mobile do introductory offer deals and use the EE network. THM use all bands too
  4. I don't know of anyone who builds Cat C "sailaway" hulls. I imagine the cost is a bit more than a narrowboat sailaway. As above though, the laws of physics dictate that a boat designed for Cat C is going to be boat shaped (and draft), thus not really suitable for canals or living aboard (since the 6'10" width and being boat shaped will render it very small inside).
  5. Clicking and starter not turning? Yep obvs fuel solenoid
  6. Yeah as above, should be able to source a replacement battery. I believe eBay can deliver to a collection point eg a local garage/convenience store. Not sure if Amazon can do similar.
  7. You don't NEED a sacrificial link in the chain supporting a fender. What you do need, is some way of ensuring the fender doesn't hang up (or pin down) the boat. If it has a slight slope in the top, it will push the boat back if caught going up. And if the chains aren't too tight and its located near the top, it will ride up if caught going down.

    RCD

    I'm pretty sure you can, which is why the regulations say "distributor", "in the supply chain" rather than simply "the seller". In fact, both the true owner and the broker would be "selling" in the broadest sense, because the true owner has offered it and the broker is doing the promotion/negotiation element of the sale. Tens of thousands of car dealers have stocking loan facilities and they are definitely the ones selling them (not the stocking loan financier, even though they are the true owner while it sits on a dealer forecourt). See above - they don't use the term "selling", they use phraseology which is more wide-reaching. Brokers are definitely liable for this.

    RCD

    There's going to be a lot (I'd say, a majority) of boats which do have a valid RCD and haven't been sufficiently modified to need a PCA - you know, the "standard" boats which have been built by a reasonable builder and the owner(s) haven't been the DIY tinkering type. Brokers will be happy to sell those kind of boats. I don't think there will be enough modified and DIY-built sailaways to worry brokers into altering their stance.
  10. I’ll happily admit my moral standpoint is to remain within the law. If you live outside the law, then life becomes interesting. I guess, “don’t do the crime unless you can do the time” might be a good mantra to live by. As a CMer there is always the possibility of licence non renewal, s.8, etc
