What exactly am I supposed to have done Wayne? Your cries of libel might have more credence, if you didn’t insult people all the time. Talking of "Wayne", wouldn't the genuine one have some comeback for the way his reputation has been questioned and blackened on a widely read public boating forum? Only provided that he can demonstrate that he actually did advise the correct way to go about repairing the damage to LadyBSE's rudder, . . by removing it from the boat at Barrowford, taking it away for repair or replacement to pattern, and then re-fitting it to the boat, in the water, back at Barrowford. How do you rate the odds on that ?

There is no need for all the name calling spite and abuse "so called mechanic" etc. Hardly "professional behaviour" or maybe now you are retired that doesn't matter.

IMHO readers of the forum are more likely to judge someone's professionalism from the posters own posts, rather than a stranger's post about them.

Any so-called canal boat "engineer/fitter" who thinks that it's not possible to get a rudder assembly -- fabricated to the conventional commercial/working boat pattern -- off and then refitted to a modern day noddy-narrowboat without slipping, docking, or craning the boat out of the water, is an incompetent prat who isn't on top of his job, . . by definition.

We need Naughty Cal on here. She used to comprehensively have TD's pants down on CWDF and boy did it boil his piss. Complete nonsense ! If you want to demonstrate otherwise, . . direct me to any CWDF topic in which she was shown to be correct on any of the subjects she chose to pick an argument over. A good place to start would be the thread in which she bet a weeks salary that a boat coming upriver from Keadby to Torksey wouldn't get there -- on account of poor tides -- within hours of the time I had advised the owner he would make it in. In the event, the boat arrived at Torksey Cut End at the time I had predicted, . . and she welched on the bet citing the feeble excuse that the boat wasn't actually tied up by the predicted time. You obviously haven't realized that she's already here, and has been for sometime, . . not under the same name of course !

Yes, although it must be borne in mind that the rudder assembly needs to be sat on the stern deck for three weeks as part of the repair process.

I think most of your stuff on there ended up being removed didnt it? So we'll never know will we?

You're nothing if not consistent, . . but at least anyone reading this thread who was previously unaware of what you are should now have become aware of the true worth of your customary trademark contributions.

I would have thought the caravan link would bring you together but it appears not.

Cage rattled? I think you need to be aware I am assembling a very costly and very sharp legal team who you shall be hearing from shortly.....

To be fair, the bit I've put in bold is the important bit. There are a few designs out there which need the boat out of water, or the engineer in water, to deal with a rudder problem with the symptoms reported by Jo. (I can think of 4 off hand; there's probably others out there)
