2012 Fishwrecked Exmouth Invitational - Sat 31st March, Sun 1st April, Monday 2nd April

Hi Crew,

I have decided on the dates for the fishwrecked competition.  They are going to be held late March/early April for the following reasons ; Gamex and AIBT are on Mid March and have lots of boats in town, most of them will have gone by the time our comp is on.  Its the week before school holidays start and Easter - so the chaos at the ramps will mainly be by us.  It does pose a cyclone risk, but it is usually pretty minimal by then and the chances are slim.  These dates also leave holiday rentals available before school hols begin.  The temperature will be warm but hopefully so will the water temp and with the international and gamex the weeks before hand, we should have a pretty good idea if the billfish are worth chasing or if we spend most of our time chasing other oooglies.

Dates are :

Sat 31st:

3.30am : 1.8m

8.40am : 1.25m

3pm : 2.1m

10.30 : 1.1m

Sunday 1st:

4.45am : 1.7m

9.20am : 1.4m

4pm : 2m

Monday 2nd:

12am : 1.2m

7am : 1.6m

11am : 1.5m

6:15pm : 1.9m

 

Any questions, please ask.  There will be a capped amount of spots next year so get in early.

Cheers,

Adam

Entry fees

Wed, 2011-05-25 08:40

By the way, entry fees will stay the same - $30 as they were this year.  Again, if anyone knows of anyone that may want to sponsor the event, that would be great.  It will be the 4th year so its an established competition!

I would love to come along, but the future is uncertain at the moment as to jobs/locations once study finishes.  Still it would be nice to know if the planets align that the option was there to have a go.

Invites

Wed, 2011-05-25 15:35

Invites to fishwrecked members only. Its not open to the general public, in future years it may be a different story where a select crowd that have been previously can be invited. The last few years has been just perfect.

Accomodation : Possibly staying at a forum members house in Exmouth, or if that falls through I think we will be tenting in one of the caravan parks or seeking a chalet somewhere.

Exmouth accommodation??

Fri, 2011-05-27 18:47

Hi guys

A question about accommodation...is there any advantage to staying in town vs. the lighthouse caravan park in terms of access to a boat ramp???

I was leaning towards staying in town because the marina is pretty close but if you're staying at the lighthouse, where's the nearest ramp and how far is it to drag the boat every day??

Thanks for your help.

regards

Team Goldmember

Tue, 2011-06-21 13:33

is booked into the Lighthouse Chalets from the 26th March - 5th Apr.

 

Now to sort out a new company car to tow the boat........its a real pity a new Chev Silverado / F trucks are $135,000 - not the cheapest and then to add insult to injury luxury car tax on top - that sucks.

From less the USD30k in the US too...

I bet the yanks would be gobsmacked at the prestige prices we pay for non-prestige american cars here, lol. Seem to be marketed that way for some reason.

It is ridiculous

Tue, 2011-06-21 20:47

I consulted my accountant and he said you can scrap the LCT as they are deemed a commercial vehicle designed to carry loads, but at the price it is hard to justify spending that much unless you really need to towing capacity.

 

I priced up a Landcruiser ute today as well and it's half the price, so it seems that will be my next ride.....

 

Should drag the 670 Allrounder to Exmouth with no problems....

we're booked in at the Lighthouse from 26th to 3rd.

Team Purple Patch has skipper: Browny,  Deckie #1: Shrek (135kg man mountain),  Deckie #2: Pom and 3rd deckie still to confirm.

sigh.......roll on March next year!
