Does anyone know what is happening on the old oil farm docking area?. Containers and PVC shelters being placed.

I commissioned (fitted) a Raymarine element 9HV recently which dropped its position randomly but quite frequently. We resolved by reducing the resolution of its position output. It was a setting well hidden and I am not sure if it looked at less satellites or used a less intensive algorithm but this worked and may give you a lead. Had earlier tried to reducing the plot to 5 second separation and problem remained, after reducing resolution it now also accepts 1 second plot separation happily. Brien

You might have to justify why you would plan your trip to arrive when and where you could not safely navigate.

Thanks for the information Waikiore. I was just crew but will pass onto owner at that time who I am still in touch with. Cheers

Thanks Zozza, My first overnighter was on a 25 footer to Mayor Island early 70s. "Aurora" Bought back memories.

Most of the people I know who have had trailer boats for a few years have stories to tell. LOL.

Swell landing!

We spent a week around Gt Barrier after Cyclones. Only went ashore at Fitzroy wharf to store, and for diesel. All normal there. Never saw another boat down the eastern side except two in Arid Island. Will be back later this month.

Panel steel guage?

Back on with the yellow shorts should do it.

😀Made me smile. Nice

So long as the one behind got no closer to the one in front than 2 metres LOL
