Hi, Brian In a quick answer to your question no!, and if you are ? are you offering to do it for me ? lol. But in a full answer to your question, do I really need to have an ultrasonic test carried if I decide to have the over plating done, albeit perhaps before it becomes really necessary? i.e.. waiting for my insurance company to demand and inspection ? if you see what I mean. As I think that on a more general point I certainly feel that I will be able to see if there is any substantial pitting of the plates that would make ME concerned, as I have worked with insurance surveyors on boiler plant for quiet a number of years looking a similar problems ?.
And by the way I feel exactly the same as you regarding spelling and grammar, I was always scared of writing anything until I got my first computer with its own spell checker, but I still have problems, but please don't stop writing your trip reports as I for one don't care about the spelling or grammar I just think they are really great so please keep it up ?
