On a few different trips i have caught sml hammerhead sharks,
once in the sound and twice out from garden island. Last saturday

Anyone else caught them locally and where? Seems they maybe a few around the area.

Whats in a name?

HI
Ok so i have pretty well made up my mind on buying a new
540 trailcraft trailblazer and was wondering whether to give it a name or not?
What ideas for names have you got? Does a boat need a name or do you think it a good
idea not to name a boat?
Cheers

Oldies

 Lulu was a prostitute, but she didn't want her grandma to know.  One day, the police raided the brothel and took all the girls outside and made them line up.  Suddenly, Lulu's Grandma came by.  Grandma asked,

"Why are you standing in line here, dear?"

 

Not willing to let her grandmother know the truth, Lulu told her that

the police were passing out free oranges and she was just lining up for some.  Why, that's awfully nice of them.  I think I'll get some for myself, "Grandma said, and she proceeded to the back of the line.

 

A policeman was going down the line asking for information from all the prostitutes.  When he got to Grandma, he was bewildered and exclaimed,

"Wow, still going at it at your age?  How do you do it old girl?"

 

Grandma replied, "Oh, it's easy, dear. I just take my dentures out, rip the skin back and suck 'em dry."  The policeman fainted.

great trip with plenty of bust offs and a handfull of landed fish .
got trevz ,red throat , more empror species cobia etc .
the dissapointing part was the lack of easterlies so no balloons wich was much needed as the tuna schools were just outa casting distance with some fish estimated to 5o kg plus absolute barrels!!!

Pajero turbo Diesel for towing

Anybody tow with 1 of these or know someone who tows with one. Had a look at the Triton and towed the boat with it but found it tows like a dog, all over the shop and just doesn't feel right. Now looking at a Pajero VRX Turbo but i don't know anyone who tows with one. Will be pulling around the 2-2.2T. Have the current Pathfinder which goes well and so did my Terracan but if anyone out there has one would be keen to know what you think before i sign up on one for 4 years.

Thanks

Issues Register - Changing Avatars & Others

Gang,

I'm having problems changing my avatar. I've accessed My Account then clicked on the Edit tab, then scrolled down to the Picture section. Once there, if I just try a (presumably replacement) Upload Picture, by browsing to the relevany sub subdirectory on my PC, it doesn't change it.

I've also tried deleting the image (on the remote (Fishwrecked) host) - which makes the display of the old avatar dissapear. But then when I do Upload, the old one comes back again! 

...and yes, I'm clicking on the Update button at the bottom of the pane. 

The attributes of the (intended) replacement Avatar is well within remote host specs. 

Any ideas?

If it helps, the URL for my existing avatar is http://fishwrecked.com/files/pictures/picture-1806.jpg

I've even tried a delete, cancel (browser) session, same prob.

Cheers!

 

Colin
