I've used Antares charts with OpenCPN on a laptop and with Navipad on an iPhone/iPad but this year I bit the bullet and paid for the Memory Map licence for my iPhone and iPad. It really is the best way I've found of using them, because you can seamlessly scale in and out, switching to Ordnance Surve...

There’s no oil in the gearbox, hence the noisier than usual operation.

Cheers,

Sorry Dave - yes, it’s reversible. Power down and power up.

Cheers,

Hi Dave

Best thing to do - I think - is to go here: https://www.lofrans.com/library

Where there are full drawings so you’re not relying on my dodgy measurements.

Kind regards,

My 12 volt Lofrans Kobra (approx 1998 vintage) died on me this summer during our cruise and in the interests of family harmony I fitted a new one in week 2. I took the old one home and discovered the following: > Seawater had corroded the motor case > The oil seal had failed, partially filling the m...

I’ve just woken up. Where the feck am I? The new autopilot is in fine form but I am less so. It’s dark... off Muck maybe

Pan pan pan... frying pan?

That was a big night. I've just woken up and there's no-one here. Chuffing tide is turning now so I'm going to have to motor up the Sound while I scrape the white fur off my tongue. Lucky I have a new autopilot so can simultaneously scrape fur and make limited progress north west.

Webbie - you're dragging. Watch my topsides!

Nah! The Spade never drags, you must be dragging upwind.

We don't do pontoons. I'm anchored further up the loch but we've just pottered down in the dinghy with three hormonal teenagers. They're looking for beer and cider and I'm hoping that Claysie will offer me a dram...

Mine is a Lensun one from eBay if that helps.

I had the pleasure of meeting Gardenshed in Grovee Craobhee on Saturday evening - a real pleasure. And today was spent drifting around the top end of the Sound of Jura drinking coffee and then beer, interrupted by a chat with Marisca. The entrance to the Sound of Kerrera was punctuated with a small ...

Glad all is well. Looks a bit punchy in the pics. Drink in WHYW? Sarah’s cocktail locker is open! Would you have us believe that you offered your services to the RNLI as a practice casualty? Not quite, I was very pleased to see them but they did have a new crewman on board for his first training sai...

Any clues for the uninformed?

Having lurked in the bushes reading Blue Moment posts for while now, and having just done our first SIPR it’s time to expose ourselves! As Capitaine of the vessel Hero we found ourselves doing battle with Sarah several times but our runners showed they could row as well and we managed to find some ...
