Boaty Bits and PiecesEngineering, Rigging and Chandlery 1 Degree West Marine is based in Southsea Marina (under the Henderson Sails sign) run by Scott Doble. He installs, services and repairs most inboards and outdrives, provides electrical, rigging and boat maintenance services and can supply any chandlery from the trade catalogue at good prices. Highly recommended. Telephone 02392 838 335 or 07764 346 301 Marine electrical components - huge range and very reasonably priced: Furneaux Riddall - they seem to prefer dealing over the web but do have a shop that is open weekdays only, at Alchorme Place, Portsmouth, Hampshire, PO3 5PA (Airport Road area) Boat covers and canopies made to measure: Bond Sails and Henderson Covers are based in Southsea Marina.

Marine fittings, fasteners - everything you could need: Baseline - browse their web site, and if you want to collect in person they are at Baseline Marine Products Ltd AIS Shipping InformationThis link takes you to a live web site that updates ship movement data using AIS. Every vessel over 300 tons transmits this data, whether at anchor or under way. If you take your laptop with you fishing, and you have a comms card that allows you to connect to the Internet, this could be nearly as good as radar! If you move your curser over the ship image, an information panel pops up with the vessel name, speed, direction, destination etc. This link goes directly to the optional Google Maps overlay for more detail allowing you to zoom and pan. Try it for fun anyway... AIS Shipping Data, Isle of Wight Area Free Local Charts On-Line!The QHM Portsmouth site has all of the local Admiralty Charts viewable on-line. This is useful for planning trips but obviously cannot be used for navigation! See here - click on the chart link to scroll over a full-sized chart. Boat Jumbles 2010Sunday 25 April 2010.

Safety: The Coastguard Voluntary Safety Identification Scheme CG66If you were at sea and got into difficulty, is there anyone ashore who knows what to do if you fail to return at your estimated time? Would a friend or relative know who to contact? Would they have sufficient detail about your vessel and your likely whereabouts to be able to assist the Coastguard to locate you? HM Coastguard's CG66 Voluntary Safety Identification Scheme has been set up to hold this information to help coordinate search and rescue if something happens to you at sea. The scheme is free and is for the benefit of the owners and skippers of all types of leisure vessels and small craft. You can register online, or download the form and post it.
