 Gday,

I am planning a trip around oz and need to take the 3.5 tinny and 15 yam with me. Tossing up an offroad capable tinny trailer or an offroad box/camper trailer with tinny on top. Has anyone done something similar or have anything for sale? I have a troopy that we sleep in so camper trailer not vital! I definately do not want to arrive somewhere and think 'if only i had my tinny'

Cheers

 Hi all, 

Just a callout to any jeep owners.

Just wondering if anyone has recommendations for a good reliable and not rediculously expensive mechanic/agent for service/repairs/improvements for their jeep?

Mines a gc overland and as youd know they arent cheap to service or modify.

Thanks in advance!

Thursday night game again lads, so don’t forget your tips. 

All home games except for Hawks for me.

 My mudguards on my 10 year old trailer have just about rusted through.

They are currently held together with patches of fibreglass that i have overlayed, so it is time for new ones.

Ive been to Martins, the the mudguards they have font fit the brackets that are installed (which only have a little bit of movement). These could be modified, but i would prefer not to if not required.

The trailer is made over in Qld and i havecontacted them. Delivery is a killer.

Anyone else know who can supply (or fabricate) mudguards at a decent price?

Thanks

 Heard on the radio today the federal govt want to put drum lines in along the coast all the way to margaret ricer from lancelin and the state govt to foot the bill. 

Any thoughts on this one. Wad mentioned that whoever controls these lines were to tow big sharks out deep and dump them there

 Hey all. Probably been asked before but couldnt find one but were looking for a mobile mechanic in mandurah to service a ford territory. Looked at lube mobile and saw the price and decided to pass. 

Any help would be appreciated 

Thanks Russ and Sandy

that was sudden, obviously more going on, hope he can get his shit together. 

 Wowsers, did anyone see that....

Some of those chics were pissed off!!

A couple of them had beards and all!!

It looks like that phillo hit the aussie chic in the tit then the big tall aussie chic threw sand in the phillos fanny, then that black chic from aussie started getting all karate kid...

That Aussie chic that was on the ground getting her hair pulled came out of it the worst with her earing ripped out and mascara running down her face....

Talk about one huge big menstrual cycle!!!

 Yesterday we received a call from the Water police. A beach inspector had reported seeing a vessel anchored out near the south cardinal marker of Scarborough. One of our vessels was dispatched to investigate and as most would question why was a vessel out in this weather.

Upon arrival they found what appears to be a research buoy. We believe it has been anchored there for testing before being despatched to another location.

We presume it will be lit a night but please take precautions if heading in this direction.

 went out side this morning after just coming back from out bush and found my dingy like this. thinking why did i left my bungs and remembered back that me and a mate were going to go for some prawns but decided at the last minute not to and backed the boat up and left the bungs in. this is about a months worth of rain i reckon. at least there was no leaks and the tyres held up

Howdy Team,

I am in the process of gutting and rebuilding my 18 ft Centre Console. Previously (15 years) the cables ran across the deck to the console which, apart from causing pain when you got a cable tie at the wrong angle), caused a bit of a blockage when washing down the deck. There was the whole UV thing.

The steering has always been hard (like two hands to turn the wheel to starboard), and gets to the point that my wife struggles to helm the boat. It isn't* hard regardless of speed, and also when out of the water. When the cable is removed, the motor is hard to turn, and the wheel is easy to turn, so it is the cable. A replaced cable made no difference so I am guessing the tight radius's are causing me issues

This in mind, I was thinking about changing to Hydraulic. I know there is a fair bit more cost involved though can anyone give me feedback on changing over? Any pros and cons?

I plan to run everything under the deck going forward.

Thanks in advance.

 Flaming heck get on the Dees to beat the line 35.5pts @ $1.88 playing Freo....

Saints were lucky today but the Dorkers wont be next week, Dockers to play the Dee's back into some form with a thumping coming up at TIO....

 after seeing a couple of posts that couples get out and fish together im curious as to how many get out there as a couple and kids as a family outing. 

over the last 18 years as boat owners i can count on one hand the times the boat has hit the water without both of us on it

 You pelicans that have hijacked the very informative punt post, this is where we talk about Rd 15.....

Conca was that a broken leg? Looked Ouchy....

Vlaustin is having a week off....

Fucking Heeney, 18 points in my SC side ( ouch ) you disrespectful little man lover....

I've said it before and i'll say it again, Tiges the standard to beat in 18.... 

Brock i've said it before and i'll say it again, regardless of who comes in for the crows they wont have match fitness and THERE IS NO WAY THEY WILL WIN BY 30 plus.....

Port will pump the blues, Geel easy also, Giants, Pies, Adel, Freo, Melb & Nth in a beauty

Howdy Folks,

My wife had a very minor bingle with a Suzuki Swift resulting in the requirement for a new rear bumper. No damage to our car (outlander) (what do they make swifts from?) thankfully.

We are insured (they aren't) though we pay a low premium thus get wacked with a high excess so I am trying to avoid insurance.

Are there any panel beaters on this side? I need someone to supply and install a rear bumper on a 08 Black Suzuki Swift. Owner lives in Dawesville.

Cheers

 i was in the wakiki shoping center yesterday , i get in  the que to get seved at the take away place inside the center ,   i found my self behind a indian bloke on his mbl phone as he is being seved he held his hand up 4 times to stop the girl serving him from asking what he wanted , unfortunatlty i exploded and told him he was a pig ignorante prick and to f,,, of to the back of the que wich he did, girls in the take away said thanks   

 Might get a bit of a punting thingo happening each week for those that like a flutter....

Before any nancys chime in, i'm not getting this happening as some form of a spruking "i only ever win and never loose" post...

For me i start the season with $200 in an online account and have a bit of fun week to week with that, fortunately this year I tripled it with a lucky win by having a 60 point margin multi come in...

So now with some cash in the kitty i can have a few riskier bets trying to keep in the green without having to outlay too much....

My last two weeks have been lame but still got a handy kitty happening....

So.... This year my goto has been on the 60 & 100 point margins ( Tab touch ) so picking a winner between certain scores....

I reckon the Saints can push the Dees, the Dees seem to have lost that form they had and perhaps the Saints can turn the corner late in the season, Like i said this is a roughie but Saints 1-19 is paying $12 so i'll have a crack...

Anyone into any Roughies this week?

Heading up to shark bay on the 25th July, can anyone recommend any good (protected) spots to anchor up and sleep over night. Last year we stayed over night at whitnells bay which was ok. Just looking for other options 

TIA

So the wife suggested we go away for a few weeks about 12 months ago and the destination was to be Broome since we have been through a few times but have never had a good look around. So after making a rough sechdule with the plan of less K's and more stays we hit the road at 3am 1st June and headed inland northward for the Cappy roadhouse. We arrived late that afternoon tucked into a feed at the bar and grill washed down with a couple of beers. After a good nights rest in one of the rooms we were back on the road bound for Cape Keraudren. We got there in good time to find the place rather busy due to school holidays and a long weekend. Not to bother we setup camp on the easternside to kick back for two nights.

First sunset for the trip.

Now that relax mode was set it was an easy drive to Barn Hill Station. This turned out to be a rather basic setup camping ground already with a large number of Grey Nomads, Wrinkles & Wobblies (new names for the older generations). Still a pleasant place quite relaxing.

No luck for me in the way of catching any fish but the oldies heading out in their tinnies were getting a variety of fish.

More sunset beers and chill time.

Now it was time to head for Broome and the surrounds. Cable beach caravan park was to be home for the next 12 days and the usual locations to explore. Cable Beach itself after a few arrival drinks.

Willie Creek.

Barred Creek and some fishing, not much catching but still relaxing either way.

Drove up through Quondong and a look around James Price Point.

After a visit to the Malcom Douglas Wildlife park.

It was up the Dampier Penninsular for a couple of days.Found a secluded location near Middle Lagoon which we had to ourselves for the night.

Well some more sunset beers were in order and we were off to the top end the next morning.

Due to limited access and every location requiring a fee just to enter and have a look sightseeing is limited at the top end. So we only got a quick look at Cape Leveque and One Arm Point.

As you can see by some of the photos we were aerial at some point. That was due to heading out to the Horizontal Water Falls at Talbot bay. Absolute highlight of the trip, Great view as you fly over the penninsular and the thousand odd islands off the coast.

Landing at the floating platforms to be served barra fillets for lunch, then hop on the boats to blast through the gaps in the headlands and then a cruise up Cyclone river. Great way to spend a day.

Well Broome time was just about done so relaxing, enjoying good feeds and beverages was required before the trip home.

Eighty Mile beach.

Point Sampson.

Some random spot to camp south of Carnarvon

And finally back home.

Cheers to the missus for a good time away next time a dinghy is a must.

And yes I've still got a fair few sand file bites.

Cheers hope you enjoy the read and photos.

 Hi All,

It has been awhile since I last posted. We have been busy and had another couple of boats since.

Which brings me on to my next topic, the latest boat.

It is supposedly a Commodore 585, which I have no information about. Hopefully, someone out there does. The previous owner tried to pass it off as a Caribbean Reef Runner and even though hull looks familiar the nose of the bow looked wrong.

It is fitted with a Mercruiser 4cyl with a Alpha One leg. The age seems to be around 1990 -1994 as the ignition is an EST type with electronic module. I am assuming it is a 3.0l.

Pics to follow and thanks for any future input.

With the weather suppoedly good this morning to get out we got up early and hoping to hit the water at first light . Yeah right as if. Got on the at about 7:30 and headed out to one of our spots in the 40s . Wasnt the smoothest trip out but we managed. Set the drift first fish on a sgt baker which was converted to bait . Next drift i nailed a just size dhuie then nothing. Set drift again and Sandy got another just size dhuie 

 Next up was a new pb kg that was about 560  showing 1.1 kg so was stoked. All went quiet apart from a few small pinks and scorpion fish. Moved into our kg spot with not much happening with a slow and wierd drift and Sandy got a kg . All up 2 dhuie and 2 kgs. Happy to just get out there for a bash and try out the new axiom . Hopefully get out again before its back to the bush

 Recently purchased a Wellcraft 232 coastal, has a 2003 Mackay trailer underneath, trailer not designed for this boat obviously. The keel rollers are a pain as it seems to catch badly on the first 2 as I'm driving it on and off so much so it's taking chips out the gelcoat, and have now dropped them out the way but still catches on the first one. also has the rear drop down swing arm for the last 3 sets of rollers which needs to be lifted up as it was never set properly, bloody second hand trailers!

question is can I remove the entire row of keel rollers and just have the wobble rollers each side as there are 16 sets, boat would weigh around 1800kg  

For those taking boats and wanting to keep in radio contact with Denham while at the back of the cliffs you can use channel 22 VHF via the repeater situated on the Steep Point lighthouse.

The whole unit was replaced last Tuesday and is up and running so when you log on to Denham when travelling over  remind them that you will be using that channel and they can monitor it for you
