    Never build a boat, story of the Ho-Hum

    Yacht Club has a 225 gen1 Etec that kept over heating, well alarming at least, we replaced the impeller, thermostats, poppet valve, infra red thermometers showed cylinders were not getting hot, but it was alarming, temp sensors were swapped with known working ones, water to the computer was ok...

    Flights to/from Bali are cancelled because

    Landi Landings always equal takeoffs, unless the law of gravity has been repealed, now controlled landings is a totally different thing 😁

    Dive Hookah Compressor

    Is this to breathe off or to power air powered tools? There is no filtration on this unit if you are breathing off it. I know I wouldn’t be breathing off it, even if you paid me If it is to drive tools I have seen 6” orbital sanders that say they need 9 cu ft a minute, which these compressors...

    K14 Elevated CO2

    A dumb question here but is it feasible to bypass the filters to capture an air sample to be tested for CO before the air goes through the hopcalite filters, I assume the pressure would be an issue here. Alternatively can you get a HP CO monitor to be inline before the filters?

    Vessel Firebird LOB in Egypt sinks

    The question should be what has changed in the Egyptian regulatory regime to reduce the number of sinking/fires/incidents on LOB. The U.S. may move slowly but changes have been made sine the Conception disaster...

    Vessel Firebird LOB in Egypt sinks

    This does tend to get back to a number of posts about the regulatory regime for the country of registration and the port state hat the vessel is operating from. Twenty two years is not that old for a well designed, constructed and maintained vessel. By way of comparison Spoilsport operated by...

    Equipment Tank explodes killing one - Mauritius

    I know people who as recently as 5 or 6 years ago were complying bitterly about not being able to get 6351 alloy tanks filled. I agree it could be partial pressure blending, but who knows how well testing standards for tanks are enforced in other countries. Another option is that someone...

    Equipment Tank explodes killing one - Mauritius

    Australia and New Zealand use burst discs. There has been at least one incident in Australia where a tank “exploded” while being filled and it was below the fill pressure. Aluminium tanks made of 6351 alloy could suffer from SLC or Sustained Load Cracking, around the neck One example cited...

    Unknown Sea Story lob sinks

    I freely admit to a limited knowledge of the design, construction and inspection phases of boat building but the quality of any building project be it boats, houses, cars or airplanes is only as good as the regulatory and inspection systems in place. A designer can come up with a plan that...

    Nautilus Lifeline Work In Coz?

    I checked this with an Icom technician in Melbourne Australia. Even if a radio is DSC capabable the DSC function is NOT enabled unless the radio is programmed with an MMSI it will not even receive DSC emergency signals So the dive boat may have a DSC radio and have no DSC capability.

    What to do about the carry on crackdown

    Think dry suit that leaks 😁😁😁😁or a dry suit used by someone without adequate bladder control. Then again you are from Florida, so this may be a totally alien concept

    What to do about the carry on crackdown

    I would sooner take my chances with a hired reg that has hard surfaces and can be easily cleaned and sanitised with a tap than a wet suit that has had litres of urine in it and washed in a communal tub
