I do the same! Doesn't it feel so relaxing! Just love the place.
I shall not dignify this (frighteningly revealing) comment with an answer. As I said before, I created this forum for marine engineers alone....
KIWI. You are absolutely right of course. Fatigue and a few pastis apart, my comment finally broke surface last night from yesterday first...
'Roundthehorn'... you got it ..... exactly. Thank you. (love the name by the way ... brilliant ....... shades of Spike Milligan and Peter...
Now I'm completely lost! LOL. Turrets turning? Maybe my composition is too old fashioned. What presumption! But I think I get it. Point taken....
Sarcasm? Is it immoral or in some way wrong to want to discuss and focus on an increasingly problematic safety issue with other engineers? Sorry,...
I already answered this question. I don't store the entire Lloyds construction regs here. I also don't store the entire Monaco traffic...
Listen, I don't know all the ****ed rules in my head, only those sections that have been written in stone, and which I've been using, since...
Yes, sort of, if we are only discussing day tanks. Gravity feed (ie. lack of air in system.) is just one of numerous safety and practical...
This forum was really for marine engineers. But to answer your question in simplest possible terms, gravity supply provides numerous safety...
First, I posted this to open a serious professional discussion, not a competition in smart answers. Second, the 'regulations' as such, either...
Lloyds syndicates .... (something.) Agreements on marine construction...(etc.) Power driven vessels over ... (etc.) Post bunkers fuel supply...
Why the sarcasm? Is this not considered a serious enough subject? Quite obviously, in relation to fuel supply, one is referring to compression...
I have found that many yachts, supposedly complying, are nowhere near as far as e.r. systems parameters are concerned. Further, have found most...
How many realise that any vessel over 25m MUST have a gravity fed main-engine fuel system (day tank or self-replenishing type), and that it is an...
Succinctly put. One yearned to make the same comment, but then noticed the logo and realized there was little point.
Ta kap. NYCAP123 Your continually contrary snippets, and now yet again, have suggested strongly that I am referring directly, or with any...
One said nothing of the sort. I do wish you would actually read my comments accurately before issuing inappropriate sarcastic comment. Are you...
This statement is bunkum, but a useful illustration of the 'modern Hollywood hero tainted' civilian attitude to close quarter confrontation that...
I did not say they are THE victims. Not in any way. I am saying that their actions, clearly despicable, may well have been the result of their...
