https://www.gulfusers.org.nz/petition Have had a read through it,and this is nothing new,IWI at Pakiri have been wanting a total ban on fishing/gulf use for yrs. May not agree with the proposals but we have been going around in circles for yrs and no agreement by advocacy groups/enviromental/mpi/greenpeace etc Sure it will or may impact my activities but do we want to leave a legacy for the next generation or 3?? Does not have to be total closure but limit fish /shellfish take and activities as to pumping vessel waste in to the sea,but need to install waste infrast

Quoted from a fishing site. talking to a guy who man’s the Coast Guard boats in Auckland. He says there were hundreds of assistance given over Xmas. I asked the biggest issue and he said broken down boats first time out after they had just been serviced. Ha, I’m always nervous going out after a service and that info confirms I

Ok I pay annual membership + a monthly top up. Last night got a call asking if I could top up my top up.Unfortunatly NO. It appears they are short of $75 per rescue. Lotto gave the some $$ and they recieved for free 1 or 2 ex Americas cup chase vessels. So my question is,Should C/G raise from $115 to $150?? Should be funded by Government.( yeah can where that will go)why am I funding rich pricks to be rescued?? Do we start paying a licence fee and certs for vessels to help reduce cost/recues?

quota is an on going issue for all stock,but I believe the top of the South island has been closed for over 5yrs and no sign of improvment. We should be looking further afield,Whats running from the land to the sea from subdivision works??silt smothers the stock and move off,heavy metals,coromandel way with all the loging works washing in to the sea,storm water. They have seeded mussels in to Okahu bay to filter the water but my way of thinking the will unedible due toxins they filter. Top of the south interesting read from a ex comms. https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/123730152/scall

Would you support this action?? and I do but its not just scallops that should be saved.There no is inshore beds of shellfish,pipi/cockle etc should be total ban Nationally as this just puts more pressure on other areas. Will Minister Parker bow down and support?? The MPI latest questionaire regarding stock is a call to ban recc dredges but not commercial.I say make commercial use air like their counter parts in Australia with their Ablone. Ngāti Manuhiri placed a rāhui on all scallop harvesting across their rohe moana due to a decline in scallop populations. The c

Try Henley propellers on the shore,be a starting point. or buy a bit of brass and file down 6mm square??

maybe replace key 1st. 2nd go to a model shop and buy some thin brass sheet and use as a shim,last resort cut the slot in clamp.

The Mother load was found west of Coromandel about 5yrs ago.Thought was it was the breeding stock for the gulf,wiped out in 2yrs not by you and I but Commercial dredges.Perhaps they need to start diving for them like the abalone divers in Aussie using air
-
No problem with rahui to save scallops.But the MPI want to recc dredges fair enough but they don't intend to ban commercial.once again the reccs bare the brunt of doing it right.

Couldnt get 3rd party for a trailer boat,but at AMI full cover rate,cheap as. Insurance is getting harder due to broken moorings ,vessels causing damage and not claimable from those that have broken free.I asked if they claim against the owner whose vessel took mine out .Nah deemed a act of god.Through no fault of mine cannot get insurance for a swing mooring in Panmure but would insure if we went on piles. -

Before parting with any $$$ see whether or not .you can get insurance. The way insurance companies operate with old vessels now. Most insist on survey, so a friendly boatbuilder comes in to play, where you are mooring or marina/piles or just on anchor. They all have varying rates. Some crippling and some silly exclusion clauses. After having several yachts of varying sizes, sub 20k we are slowly saving for the over 40k market to eliminate those replacement issues. -

"Vin" what is your definition of liveaboard?? a place to live in a river on piles while still attending full time work or liveaboard and go cruising without the worry of work?? If its just afloating apartment then no real attention required to sails,rig,etc but if cruising as a lifestyle with a budget of $20k limited choices really h28 d28 , they would have adequate sails and motor and a resonable motor,but sorry if this is going to upset you but really need $40k + with all the work done is probably where you are looking at,no or limited income why spend it on motor rebuilds/sails etc wh -
