As you bought your boat new in October, you will still be under warranty, so I would certainly get the dealer to check the noise and to explain the reason for...
Phil As Ken says if it's under warranty get it sorted. Definately should not be making that noise, prob nothing to serious however. Oil loss I beleive is...
Thanks chaps I think I will. I had been holding back as I hadn't been invoiced (separate yard) for the service and I need the invoice for a warranty claim. I...

... Ok, Jez, i want to vote, but i've never seen a picture of the new 325, i think you should either post one or supply a link to one, then i can decide and...
Hi Dave, I think the problem with the idea of shaped lpg tanks is that practically all pressure vessels are cylinder shaped, this is to even out the forces...
