maybe a superyacht anchor if the omakiwi / rawhiti area is ground zero?

Sorry may have misread the post. We have moss exemptions for our club owned chase boats

you can apply for MOSS exemptions in this case - https://www.yachtingnz.org.nz/clubs/moss-exemption not an expert by any mean but our club as been through this. a few hoops to jump through but all possible

have you seen the thread on sailing anarchy?

Howdy.... anyone had any real world experience with one of these? https://vakaros.com/products/atlas2?gclid=CjwKCAjwo7iiBhAEEiwAsIxQEaQhS1LqxOZxxsVX2jB_FzAJ3XXAx1DR8e9v4Cp_N94hrHOvndfEyRoCEsIQAvD_BwE need to replace my speedo (the old navman s100 finally gave up). All I've got is a raymarine a series MFD downstairs with no network at all at the moment. Was thinking of adding a raymarine i70, but would also need to build a network to add it so ends up being reasonably cost neutral. I will add a speed transducer in time as well (probably the airmar dst810 with the wireless c

I could be wrong, but had a funny feeling peidy's could get an exemption for lifelines as they are classic - that was a few years ago that I heard that so might have changed

Was like that when I brought it - had never had a sail drive before and got a bit of a fright when i pulled the boat out of the water the first time to find no boot. Has been like that since the engine was installed in '05. Got some advise, and used Sikaflex 291 as the sealant when I re did it.
