El Toro

Thanks for this. Do you know if Peron Pearse is sailing and what boat he is on by chance?

Wild Thing

How many are there??

Thats BNG's isnt it?

All mangroves must die

House of Elliott didnt do it I dont think...hmm or maybe they did but not the prod. Addem, yea that is PCs 3rd bulb...Trubi cut of the jandel and put on the Kick type bulb. I then cut the whole thing off, moved it back 7400mm and relaid new fin and bulb to what she has now diablo.pdf

Pretty Woman, high Voltage and Gale Force and maybe one other? all had same keel and fin done around same time. Kicks looks a lot like the bulb Trubi put on Pork Chop after he cut the jandle off with a chain saw at Pier 21.. or so a couple of old diggers have told me over the years.

That unit on Pork Chop was brand spanking new and a replacement for the previous brand new Raymarine touch screen which they didn't honour the warranty on. I will never go touch screen again, nor Raymarine, and nor Lusty and Blundell for that matter. And Im very sorry that that farken thing failed you at a moment of need Bazza

Squealer is ex The Butcher and is a 10.5, not a 1050 Bottle of rum to whoever eventually buys her and changes the name back...

This is hardly new, both parties have known for years this was coming up and the rescue guys cant fit their two new choppers in the shed anyway. Beating up on Poal is riduclous

Amen

Davis, they are dogshit to handle with one engne, so I discovered when I blew one whilst Bad Kitty sucked on a beer in Nagels a few years ago

Adrian, are the 30's? I have a mountain of spares I was about to sell on trademe including injectors. Found them hidden away on board, since i dont plan on island cruising Ive no need for them Happy for you to come and have a look if you like.

We have lost loose vehicles off the back of her before, twice from memory...right through the rail

Awesome photos I can see myself in 3 different bays, on 3 different days. And the first time in living memory Ive gone an entire weekend not rafted up to one other boat

Ahh ok, thanks Mark, good to know. Will converse with the skipper

Thanks Mark, Ill chase with Suellen. We have one, but we have taken out some weight so prob need to reweigh? Apprec it

Hi does anyone know if there is an IRC measurement day/weigh/lift coming up in Auckland in lieu of Noumea race approaching? Cheers

I watched Trubi the other day go out and win a rum race single handed, against at least a dozen boats, including a couple of sharp ones. Go that man!

I know a different type of boat, but one from the 80s still, but Pork Chop used to scare the sh*t out of me in anything over 18 knots with a kite...and even resulted in a new shiny mast one coastal next to Rangi Light. I jumped on Positive Touch one race and was on mast/piano, at once stage I was hugging the mast for dear life, to which the crew laughed and asked me what the f I was doing. I fully thought we were going in to the death roll that I was used to. I think it may have scarred me for life now I think about it. New keel helped, moved it back a whopping .74m but did not fix alt

Remarkable coincidence....which reminds me, we are probably due for a beer...

It wasnt dangerous I guess, as it was flat calm and all in slow motion and all 3 of us were on station...but there was no need for it... and it was close

Id have to say that the Lady Margaret didnt endear herself to me or the Benny she went between going though Tiri Passage on Friday afternoon. I wish I had though to take this photo 90 seconds earlier.... there was just no need for it, plenty of room all around us and we were only doing 7 knots. Sorry not sure why that photo is 90 degrees

Anarchy I guess with be there, as well Clockwork

You're starting to piss me off now BK! Feeding cats crayfish and now this.....
