Hey Team, our alarm module has gone out so wondering if anyone has a GM series ignition panel kicking around they want to part with?
Thanks

Doug Harrison from MMYC built Wizzard along with it's sistership Tarantala?? He is still actively sailing Wizzard and may know the whereabouts of the other one which has some name changes, Andy
Thanks Andy,
Possibly Tarantala is now Seasphrey that sold last year?

Hey All,
Trying to track down any TC 12.5 catamaran around in NZ?
Have been told there is one called Wizard in Tauranga.
Interested if any are potentially coming up for sale in the near future?
-
I think the closest is on the shore.

I have a pole that is surplus to requirements, you can take the ends off that and junk the tube if you so desire. Where are you located.
We are located in Whangaparaoa.
Would you be able to send a photo of the ends?
Thanks
Brendan

Just putting my feelers out to see if anyone has some spinnaker pole ends/beaks they would sell on?
Thanks
Brendan

Kick is racing, don't fancy our chances against the longer waterline length and canting keel boats with current forecast.....

Caught in this as well, so I am asking the obvious lazy question - is it actually absolutely required to scrape back the old Warpaint?
Assuming the normal prep for a like-on-like over-coating is completed, would there be a problem just overcoating the old Warpaint with a different ablative eg #5?
I reached out to Altex and they said would need to remove before putting #5 on.
We put Warpaint over Vivid Petit and the adhesion isn't the best.
When we get barnacles it pulls Warpaint off down to the vivid.

Hi I have approximately 3lts of grey War Paint

Thanks Strath,
I'll message you.

As Warpaint has been discontinued I'm faced with stripping the Warpaint off.
If there is anyone out there with a tin they are happy to part with it will hopefully get me another season before getting the scraper out 🤞

Good to hear Graeme is still doing it after the changes, he did our last cert.
Will give him a call, was great to deal with last time.
-
Was thinking of giving you a call Jon.
Would you come up to the Weiti Boating club or not your area?
-
We are planning on it but still trying to get sorted with Cat 3.

Hotdogger Locked and loaded for tomorrow. Packed start line in the Safety at Sea division- 45+ boats!
Looks like enough breeze to make it back to Eden Park in time for the game 😅
Or not 🤣

Meanwhile the Weiti river is full and has a 3 year waiting list.
Why don't Hoppers provide 10 and 12 metre berths to provide some more affordable options?
Unfortunately it is full of boats that hardly get used or never leave their moorings......

Very few boats have left our river
So far we have had a few showers of rain on Friday and cleared by about 1pm.
Had a nice sail over to Waiheke yesterday and have had no more than 10knots of wind in our bay.
Today has been perfect nice sunny day 👍.

Looks like there is a brand new Elliott doing the race - Liquid Luck.
Will be interesting to see how she goes, think she might be a canting version.

Anyone know how we get to see handicaps before the start on Friday?
-
Can anyone guide me in the direction where I could find some of these replacement hinges?
They are off the fridge door but unfortunately have seen better days.

New channel markers are on their job list.

Is there anyone on here that could help with the diameter of the crank on a yanmar 3gm30f for the front and rear man seals?
Am wanting to get some speedy sleeves to fixe oil leaks but need the diameter to order the correct sleeves?
Any help would be appreciated

Our river is about half a meter above normal and a big high tide due after midnight. Could get ugly for some houses.
Interesting the current is running out an hour or more after low water
Further up the river by the old Stevies yard 15knots was clocked on the speedo, big rooster tail coming off their rudders.
Unfortunately a big piling barge dragged and struck their pole damaging it then impact into their hull leaving a big crack and marks all down one side before dissapearing off to stillwater where it struck some more boats before it was secured!
Spent the morning rescuing 2 boats from broken piles...
Mother nature can be bloody brutal!

With the forecasted rain and wind it wasn't worth us staying out with young kids onboard! So we have just made the trip back from Te Kouma to Gulf Harbour in 3 hours 40 minutes, was pretty wild out there but thankfully we were going with the wind! Top speed of 14knots and average of almost 9knots, boat felt like a heavy tug boat as we were provisioned for another 10days on the water.
We may head out again for a few days if this weather clears up!

Thanks, will take a look into when we are back.
Cruising along at 10+ knots currently so pretty good decision right now 😅
