    War on the water coming up.

    in Everything Else

    Posted

    When this first came up through the "Seachange working group" 2019 think it was. A small handful attend a discussion night as we were very concerned about bring locked out of the gulf.

    If anyone wants to take the time and read exactly what has been signed off there it is. Basically .If Maori can prove a coastal was/is/had supplied the IWI with Kaimoana then they will have for goverance over the area. Which means they can decide on take or no take what species/shellfish can or cannot be taken.Set limits/seasons but cannot lock off access to non maori.

    And you will be surprised who has signed off on it.


    Who are the Stakeholder Working Group? • Jake Bartrom: Coromandel, youth and recreation. • Matt Ball: Auckland, Ports of Auckland. • Laurie Beamish: Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki, mana whenua member. • Joe Davis: Ngāti Hei, mana whenua member. • Katrina Goddard: Waipu, environmental. • Alison Henry: Whitianga, community. • David Kellian: Warkworth, commercial fishing. • Callum McCallum: Clevedon, aquaculture. • Scott Macindoe: recreational fishing. • Dirk Sieling: Whitianga, farming and recreational f ishing. • Tame Te Rangi: Ngāti Whātua, mana whenua member. • Lucy Tukua: Ngāti Paoa, mana whenua member. • Conall Buchanan: Paeroa, farming. • Raewyn Peart: Point Chevalier, environmental. The SWG has an appointed independent chair, Paul Beverley. In addition to the above, Alan Proctor (recreational f ishing) was a member of the SWG from 2013 until 2015, and Nick Main the independent chair and Kaaren Goodall the independent facilitator from 2013 until mid 2015. The Stakeholder Working Group has developed the Plan through extensive engagement with mana whenua, local communities, and stakeholder groups, gathering science and mātauranga from many sources including technical experts, and considerable contributions from local and central government agencies.

    So "Legasea" or NZ SFC cannot object to any changes they were serving on the board and signed off on it,and yes I attended a meeting where a small group of us felt those who were supposedly looking after our interests sold us out.

    Can't say for shore where the zinc came from.  Had if a few years.  Was pretty solid one.  

    Had a kiwi prop on a ss shaft and used proper zinc block never had a issue with prop,well I did,barnicles killed it in reverse,but if the occasion rose again I would have a kiwi prop.

    In this case should Acc pay or Lance's insurance pay compensation for families loss. 5 lives lost through no fault as it was a commercial operation.unlike say a sporting or vehicle accident. No doubt Lance's insurance will pay out for a new vessel as found not to be negligent.Still subject to MNZ possible appeal.

    MNZ are looking an appeal.

    I suspect what we have all read there are some facts that weren't presented.  Conditions good enough to be trolling and dinner on?Question for me would be."was the skipper really at the helm"? If so then wasn't keeping a proper watch as,claimed rogue wave,possibly should of seen it.

    Was he under pressure from passengers to get home?

    I can see MNZ rewriting the rule book.No mention of compensation to families for lose of lives.

    Yes I believed Lance to be in the wrong and still do,looking at where he was and conditions,shallows wasnt the place to be.

    Have a three blade kiwiprop that is a bit worse for wear... Attacked after the wrong zinc anode didn't do what it was supposed to.  So after any of the internal parts.  Not sure what exactly at this stage. 

    If anyone has one that's spare please let me know. 

    Was it one of those new alloy zins,not zinc but alloy compromise? If so they are for freshwater. Many new outboards have the alloy and talking to a marine tech when I wanted new zincs for outboard. First question salt or frresh water? I took the old ones in as didnt have a lot of weight to them,look good on the outside until he tapped them.

    I have a plate zinc for trim motor,skeg and 2 on motor itself. replacement alloy $75 or real zinc $85 worth the extra $10

    I cant help but feel this will be a one off or flop. Too many advantage points to be economical as far pay to view from a grandstand.Depending on wind direction the uper end of harbour,will to flukey unles the course is straight up and down harbour with no wing marks.Take a swnot a lot room to have a windward start. be something like Stanley poit to Westhaven then a very sprint to what Bayswater beacon area? Cannot see it working.Se can only be reaching up and down Harbour. E windward/running. Be great to see but just cant,nor can friends,see it working

    The battery in this photo is from the 65-ft sloop Blue Peter. As the engine was turned on to leave, there was a loud bang and the battery exploded. Fortunately, nobody was hurt.

    lack of maintaince I would say. How many check the water in older batteries or rely on seeing the little green light in the glass?

    Why, oh why, did Auckland Council simple not say "register your jetski by getting a VHF callsign".

    Why not just trailer regristration? If you have a double trailer,as same do,then add a extra number?

    In NZ licensing and registration is a solution looking for a problem

    possably required for trailered power vessels,how do you report/identify white buccaner/sea nymph etc moored vessels mostly have name displayed and easier to track if need be.

    jetskis have to be registered,so why not trailer vessels.
