  1. Had it explained in detail how QMS forces commercial to dump. If I had quota for 6 tonne of snapper nearing the end of the season,all thats left of my quota(snapper) is 600kn and I catch 800kg I have 2 choices ,one is ring around and find out who has quota left so it can be landed under their quota,2 ,stock caught so must be ,I get paid the going rate for the 600kg,the other 200kg I pay a deemed value to mpi/fisheries and it could be as much as $30kg So what am I going too do?? dump it of course,must of got the net caught on something,ring mpi/fisheries straight away and I am covered.(b
  2. "CH" interesting article,but why are still using old world technology to catch fish? Where there is a presence or known presence no netting/trawling within 40 miles of the coast would help. Industry spent a lot of money on a new design net that allows fish to be released alive as the net comes on board full of water,yeah can really see that working in a sea way. https://www.maoritelevision.com/news/latest-news/tiaki-launch-new-technology-replace-trawl-nets Do nothing to save dolphins though.
  3. But they squeal if late paying club levy.
  4. Apart from those on this site,who would know there was a race??same as coastal classic,sure airtime is expensive but YNZ could spend some coin on a dying sport.
  5. Why do jet skis need to be registered in Ak/waikato but no other vessel?? If I was to own a jet ski I would be protesting about registration,why should my choice of vessel be singled out?? mind you,how do you know I have actually put the right number on??
  6. are there any NZ production yachts less than 30yrs old??
  7. $20k if I had it ,this would be worth a look https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/boats-marine/yachts/keeler/auction-1929502296.htm?rsqid=43d4d91a1a574329805c1934e5e13358
  8. Davidson 28 big volume safe and has the head room
  9. perhaps dive flags need to be made out of ply or simular that slot together mounted above cabin so can be seen in all directions? How many times have you seen a fizzy with the flag mounted on stern, This is not a licencing issue of such more of a education issue,no flag can pass at 50m 30knots dive flag can pass at 50m but doing 5knots which is more danderous? I would suggest the 50m at 30knots due to wake etc,so perhaps our maritime laws need looking at as well
  10. Faults on both sides, just wait till breathe testing comes in like Aussie?
  11. Years ago had a teacher who said if you ever want to crew on a yacht just walk down the marinas and you will get a ride,guess thats all gone now??
  12. out of sight,mpi wont care, but just incase blame the recccs as there might be someone down there Sent a email to my friend at "Legasea" re seafood NZ post rubbishing legasea etc,I can only imagine Poppa Bear will get even very quickly as that was a personel attack on him.
  13. Licence will do nothing unless its registered somewhere??or you get followed in to the marina then westhaven will have your details but still complainant could do nothing as westhaven cannot hand over your details,but if in a national register ,run by???would be able to handout info if from MNZ/Police??
  14. Total ban of set nets except flounder/mullet drag bait nets,as these are used in shallow estuaries etc.
  15. Security are quick enough to jump when having a cruise around showing visitors the marina from a vessel.
  16. lease is non political. Will not with any party but talks to all parties.maybe visit lease Web site and contact. Hector Maui have heard could be as low as 44 they are not good breeders do not matureyntil about8 and life span 14 yrs
  17. HaHa remember 1970 staying at Cheltham beach,trawler came out AK no lights and you could here the gear going over the side.
  18. And there lies the problem it is Wellington based fishing from seafood nz.. West coast is fishing well due to ban from coast with trawlers due to maui/hector dolphins. The main recreational fishing area,sna1,top of the north island down the east coast to east cape,with long lining danish seining (operating right off rukaka beach taking pilchards etc)trawlers which are allowed inshore,particullary in gulf,just outside kawau outside tiri down to gannet rock across to happy jack. This time last yr 3 sanford longliners working right inside kawau bay/orewa out to tiri,we witnessed the operation ove
  19. NZF had a good fishing policy,basically word for word of "Legasea" presented by nzf Richard Prossier??but he didnt get in Shane corrupt Jones got in. Kermadec is interesting as Aotea fisheries(largest quota holder)wants fish there as in their eyes it has/was a traditional ground. Fine fish the traditional way back with dug outs and bone hooks. Sealord is interesting as .an interesting venture as its broken in to various operators,dig deep enough and will see who has contracted slave ships. As far as quota goes only person(in my view)to fish it is not the overseas holder or the quee
  20. The NZ fisheries is more rotten than a week old fish lying in the sun. Big cooperates running MPI. The minister Nash is only a puppet same as Guy was. the corruption is deep inside mpi/maf you only change the minister not the bureaucrats who only report what the minister needs to know. There has been a big trawler built lately that have mincers below the waterline,apprently to put waste down lower to protect sea birds,what else is going down the mincer?? www.radionz.co.nz/news/te-manu-korihi/312342/new-flagship-for-maori-fisheries-company Can we leave the personnel attacks out a
  21. Just present a shotgun when the dickheads get close,they soon go away
  22. Fizzy registration is dead easy,same as trailer rego.
  23. No immediate problem correct,but chances are very good of had a problem,out going tide 2m swell on bar and they were just from the white water,motor fail, fall in? I was in 5.7m 90hp horse and skipper was working hard to keep wave at stern and bow from not running over wave in front. Had they got in trouble all we would be able to is vhf or cell police,c/g and it would 2 hrs or more before anyone got to them.
  24. www.trademe.co.nz/motors/boats-marine/motorboats/auction-1580309906.htm?rsqid=d0b6540a493e4e618d1ffd1b933e7af7 What ticket or licence do you need to run this boat bry53 (1 ) 5:15 pm, Wed 6 Jun A. The vessel is in private register so you do not need any licence. You just have to learn how to drive the vessel. 12:58 pm, Thu 7 Jun
  25. The problem the way I see it,we are going to be penalized for those who we just cannot get through too or dont care,same group who drink/drug/drive they are probably the same ones who have the rotted ply hartley and no lifejackets, I came in through Manukau heads last friday(never again) and there just off cake island(tipitai head) 10ft parker craft with 6 ;largest guys fishing,no jackets waving beer cans These are type who no matter how hard you try to educate will carry on doing it . You fine them??so what(pay $5 pw) go and get another boat?? There is no easy answer until we have a bon
