I'm going to wait until the poll is finished and then decide to vote depending on the results!

I went to a boatbuilders open day the same weekend as Crick and on one of the boats saw my first wet room which was full width, tiled floor with under floor heating, which isnt as expensive as you may think (B & Q) a lot of slope & a suction pump into a central grid st/steel, I think, then into a tray and out into the canal. it looked great and is on my list to do some more research.Luckily my future boat builder x fingers built it and another three so I may have the edge on info into these in a couple of months. You could always chuck yourself over the side now and again until its built!

Ok then ,The boat builder who is selling the engine & box would never change at all ! Nearly had a heart attatk when I told him what I was planning. The boatbuilder who is going to build the sailaway wants me to definitly change the box over due to the likelyhood of breakdowns with the clutch bands which I have been told are hard to come by. .

Thanks to all for the info, loads for me to get my head round and a few good questions for me to use before I settle the deal, ie using seawater through it : Its an original marine engine with the blackstone box but I have been advised to change over to a p.r.m.hydraulic. I think I'll print these answers and take them with me. If ok I'm hoping to put it in a seventy ft sailaway. :cheerscheers:
