Hi All
I just wanted to introduce myself on the forum. I'm the new, proud owner of a 2008 Sun Odyssey 45DS. My first sailing boat after several years with a motorboat (Not a Jeanneau!). Currently she is on the Hamble (Near Southampton for the non UK Members) but once lockdown is over I'll be taking her down with some more experienced friends to Brixham in the West Country.
Before I move her I have a couple of little jobs and could do with some help, if anyone could please:
1. I looked at the mast and couldn't see the steaming light (There is a deck floodlight I can see and have tested along with the anchor light at the top of the mast). Sadly I still can't see it when I turn it on! I'm assuming it is up there somewhere? Can anyone tell me the bulb type please and where I should be looking for it?
2. The Port Navigation light has failed. I couldn't remove the bulb, it wouldnt turn or push-in and rather than force it I just wanted to check what sort of fitting it is?
It sounds trivial I know, but any help is gratefully received
Many Thanks
Mike
