Title: Forum back again
Post by: GeoffV on June 23 2025, 09:27
Every month I try once to see if this forum has come back and to my great joy it has returned!

Thank you guys.

I am very relieved as I am having trouble with very stiff steering on my cruiser 37 which I will have to fix at the end of the season (rudder out and bearings replaced) so the information stored here is going to be invaluable.

Once again a big thank you for stepping up and raising the baton again.

Ps If you ever need donations just ask. This knowledge store is just too valuable to lose.

I am very grateful for the data to be back and for Yngmar for preserving it. I'm having some trouble restoring the attachments, so I might need to revert to the backed up version and start again (so this post might blink out of existance :kewl), as the attachements have lots of value too.

Glad to have you back here. I'll message you seperately about your bearings - I wrote a PBO article on it that goes into some detail about our adventures.

Really great news the forum is back online! No I can take the 'read-only' mirror I made offline.

Nice to see you guys also updated the software.

Thanks Samoerai - the new version is even keeping the spammers at bay... for now! Great to have you back.

I want to update the download page also with some more up to date pdfs and broaden it out to items such at the Whitlock steering schematics, which are super useful.

Hmm... I've found the 'upload' thread ( https://www.bavariayacht.org/forum/index.php/topic,1541.0.html ), but it seems you can't upload files there. I can upload files to this thread, but only small ones and not the somewhat larger pdf files.

Well, here we go, all are fitted in a Bavaria 34,3 cabin from 1999 ;-)

I also have some webasto air top 3500 stuff, but i'm not sure if that is bavaria original.

Hello Samoerai, I've tweaked the upload settings for attachments, making the size a bit less limited. Can you try again to see if it works??

Thanks for the input, I'll add those to the download screen when I get a moment.
