  1. Metvuw shows it making direct hit on the North Island East coast.
  2. Looks like we may get a bit of a blow this weekend. 3 to 4 m swell predicted for Mercury Bay. Just as well I got plenty of fish on Monday.
  3. Just use plastic folders as IT does but store in purpose built chart storage rack.
  4. Had the same thing a week or so ago at Great Merc. Turkey turns up in big new gin palace, slides tender out of stern locker , puts dog in dinghy and takes it ashore for a stroll and crap. This is at a crowded Peachgrove bay. Was going to give him a Billy Graham but he must have seen the way I was eyeballing him and gave me a wide berth on the way back out. Not long after he picked up the pick and left. A....hole.
  5. No need for the cleats. Use the top of the winch drum, that's what it's designed for.
  6. What's it like up there now. Our son was heading home this arvo to Pine Harbour.
  7. That's funny because I was wondering where the hell Oranga Bay was. Always known it as Shark Bay. My daughter always wanted to know why it was called Shark Bay,. Could never think of a good story to tell her.
  8. Sounds like Bon Accord is very full.
  9. You will certainly be able to join PYBC. John Bennett may be able to give good advise on pile line setup. Good club and good hardstand facilities.
  10. You could go to the eastern side of Coromandel. Don't know how many at the Mercs, Opito area.
  11. I heard that a while ago. Provisioning would be an issue I would think.
  12. That boat has done a lot of miles. Don't think the comport level would be too high.

    Xmas cruise

    Where is everyone heading for their Christmas cruise. Anyone heading for the Mercs I will keep an eye out.
  18. Alinghi back in and Burling and Tuke haven't signed on with Dalts yet.
  19. Yep, had to do that on my Cav 32. Had a leak in the tank and had to remove engine to get tank out.
  20. That design was more like a big version of the R31.
  21. Owen Wolley did design a Raven 36 and a few were built but I'm not sure how many. Just looks like a stretched 26.

    Lotus 9.2

    Not sure how it is attached as was like this when we purchased the boat. Was the main reason for buying this particular boat. It is all foam core I think.

    Lotus 9.2

    Feel free. It also adds waterline length when going up hill. Have watched all your youtube clips. Great viewing. The cockpit drains come out at the highest point underneath the scoops.
