Good news is that we got back to Pyrford Marina, bad news is that the odd noise is coming from the water pump and it looks as though it is going to need to be replaced. There was a lot of help forthcoming from Pyrford Marina on that front. Although they are a bit tied up themselves in terms of being able to repair the problem, they are quite amenable to me repairing the boat in their marina which is good, often marinas make a stipulation that no repairs should be carried out except by their staff. They also supplied me with the details of a Lister dealer who could supply the necessary part and also to courier it to the marina, hopefully tomorrow. For the time being we are moored up in the marina whilst we resolve the problem.
