nah she didnt turn up,good 2 sail reach all the way to te kouma,too shy for a kite,start was 11.00.first boat in 3.00pm farr 1020 we finished 4.15 cav26 so awaiting handicaps.not looking good though

about to go to boat,race to coro 11.00am start,nw,will be a kite ride if no2 gets out of bed?

due to the climate change event we have put start back 1hr,why who knows

face it,your an easy target,you don't honestly think noise control are going to turn a stereo off at a sunday morning gang pad??

You do realize that noise control cannot enter your property to measure the noise.It must be done from the road side.Did you ask to see his/her decibel reading machine??cannot go by ear alone.

wonder if you could cart wheel one1?

awesome footage though http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11834968

windyty i find useful www.windytv.com

Had a davidson m20,pretty much go anywhere boat,had we not had a compound to leave rigged,would of lost interest real quick,rig park trailer,get trailer,wait at ramp,derig nah.

$25 average tamiki river

Twosail, why a trailer sailor??any particular reason. At that price you can find a perfectly good raven,reactor or tracker with change left over to make what ever improvements you want. as far as taking Farr 6000 to Gt Barrier no problem at all,like everything else weather dependent. All the toys you have mentioned are great till they pack up.learn to use a chart and compass first Just re read and you need to store at home?how often do you plan to use it?? rigging and de rigging every weekend becomes a pain and if launching westhaven and leaving trailer overnight becomes a cost.

Boat owners are such an easy target,according to the ACT leader David Seymour,we are all "rich pricks" made that statement last April the 9th 2016 at fish symposium meeting I attended,will never forget that comment.

whats there to spy on??we know who will come a distant 2nd

Chatfield for me,and I have one,shot of grease every 6 months if I remember. if seal does go can undo 2 flange bolts and use normal packing and retighten pss from memory can undo bellows and give faces a very light sand,will get water in hull

Ha Ha we have a 35 mile drifter sunday. Any way fan worm I have noticed,it will grow on new antifoul,we did it 6 weeks ago and can see it starting already,probably attached to silt on hull,Tamiki river, Another overlooked problem is the asian crab,type of paddle around nungaruu? and marsden pt,destroying shell fish beds. Nz cut its biosuruity budget about 6 yrs ago and now we are paying the price,remember the AK harbour bridge clipons??thats where the pacific oyster came in and has taken over our rock oyster/The fan worm may not be attractive or useful but do not think it will do much ha

fan worm is merely a filter and poses no risk Uses[edit]The European fan worm is able to bioaccumulate bacteria and has a profound effect on the marine bacterial environment. Microbes build up in the worm and are present at much higher concentrations in its tissues than in the surrounding water and this means the worm can be used as a bioindicator. It is efficient at filtering out Vibrio spp. bacteria that are pathogenic to fish and shellfish and can cause foodborne illness in man. It can also potentially be used for remediation of polluted water near sewage outlets.[6] en.wikipedia.org/w

depth sounder is a must. The last night sail I did was 4 weeks ago to north harbour ponui island.Thought we were far enough off the little island (the bay before)but when it read 2m new we were way to close,so changed course towards waiheke when it 6m knew we were safe. I drive at night on country roads and love it,but out on the water it seems darker,my night vision does not work.

At least the owner of single handed yacht who hit 3 others owned up,tamiki river

not the first time,a launch went through the mullet boat erine back in the 80s

I believe that un anodized ali masts etc that get that salty tarnish look is the ali defence against corrosion,but i would not sand it,polish it till you no for certain

What's the problem using tig welder in bayswater marina?no sparks unless you need to do a bit of grinding,can you use a gas bbbq or have a petrol vessel in the marina.

bbq would be s/s would it not?so a magnet wouldnt work

after checking ynz safety check list 2013/2016 i see a laser flare is acceptable in conjunction with other flares (d) Two red hand flares or laser flare. X X X X X

love the part about the chainsaw onboard, Every yachts crew seems to have one.
