- Log: (Autohelm 50 ST Multi). The LCD display usually shows only a series of dashes. Sometimes it flicks into full life, then dies again. I have replaced the cockpit repeater, but that hasn't fixed it.

- Depth gauge: (Autohelm ST50). The display sometimes goes blank. Switching it off and on again fixes it.

- GPS repeater: (Clipper). Some functions on the cockpit repeater display are not working.

- Tiller pilot: (Raymarine ST 1000+, with Autohelm ST50 compass). There seems to be a loose connection in the cockpit socket, and it all goes AWOL without warning.

- Navtex: (Target Pro). Needs a new aerial.
