  1. Crikey Metservice can finally landscape, it's a miracle. https://www.metservice.com/
  2. Bloody loony irresponsible planning relocating all craft from Okahu to Hobson with no upgrade of the decrepit pile breakwater.
  3. Australia has moved away from two stroke carbureted small engines to comply with EPA emission standards in favour of direct injection and four strokes. Are there plans afoot here to follow their move.
  4. Crikey Aleana last time I looked out of my cockpit armchair nostalgics were in short supply. If it works don’t diss it.
  5. Stick with the Seagull ,Aleana has obviously crossed over well away from the heady blend of wood varnish and paraffin which in my view are the soul and grace of yachting. Yup you can sit on your yoghurt pot revelling in your enclosed in clears power assisted cockpit flight deck auto anchored electric furling bow thrusted wonder but it will never deep down inside ever have the feel of a wooden log.
  6. And some glasses too, crikey amateur out of focus ,repeated photos with poor range selection not how one should present a Clark/Wilson beauty.
  7. Did that change his disparaging view of his Beale. One of my favourites Wilson kauri logs has been on the market for a while Quintessence. The broker deserves a keel hauling for such a poor effort on the listing and really should sharpen his pencil. https://www.trademe.co.nz/trade-me-motors/boats-marine/yachts/keeler/auction-2385946296.htm
  8. Wooden log artist. https://www.pressreader.com/new-zealand/boating-nz/20170301/283523681160486
  9. Not necessarily environmentally friendly but hey it’s a boomers thing. I love the smell of two stroke in the morning....
  10. A cruel cruel slur on British outboards. 40 years of idleness and one pull bingo. The trick is making sure all your pants are the same colour. http://youtu.be/-adwm9K77pY
  11. Emergency out of sight storage facilities for damage craft hit by Sealink ferries?
  12. Got a seagull for it this year. A brilliant British combo enjoy
  13. Crikey Erice that convoluted spaghetti you script as posts beggars belief. Try expressing your opinions in a format that most can decipher and maybe someone will actually be interested. Ok so you are special needs well enjoy it but give us a break. I know it’s a complicated world but that doesn’t mean you have a free pass to add to its complexities.
  14. Outboards should be mandatory with inflatables. Had Zodiacs for years but rowlocks were are and still a joke. Avon in my opinion had one of the more reliable set ups.
  15. Crikey $850k is quite a chunk of change.
  16. Older RH design Rehab always appealed to me along with the 10m displacement powercat.
  17. Something not quite right with that tale. Phones husband to inform him she is returning to boat after shopping completed then drifts for 2 days without calling him back. No sign of any shopping in that dinghy. More likely he cast her adrift rather promptly after she put on those ghastly yoga pants.

  20. Love this photo, crikey you wouldn’t need any anti foul at that altitude.
  21. Crikey this has turned into a seventh movement symphony, and what a pack of neurotic moaning dribblers those Little Shoal Bay residents are. Unfortunately this incident may well fuel the fire for the hard stand haul out facility to be removed like the one under the harbour bridge. Couple that with demise of Okahu and the Devonport thinning one must wonder about the future of mooring and maintaining yachts outside the commercial interests.

  23. Crikey the skipper isn’t Kermit by any chance.
