  2. Hi , im just after some advise im looking at replacing my boat with something newer around the 2009 model and was looking for a cuddy or center cab around the 5.5 mark and was considering these brands. I have found a couple of stessl coat runners and seahawks and wanted to know if they are any good and what the build quality is like comparing the other boats that i mentioned below.. Bar crusher 530/560 cuddy formosa southerner or ocean series formosa 5.5 cuddy
  3. I don't think it's a pike eel they get much thicker then that . I've caught a heap of them in the Hawksberry river
  4. What do u use for bait thou? Are the traps worth using?
  5. Hi just wanted to know where people catch live bait at berowra and bar point area. I tried on the weekend and all I was getting were little taylor. I tried using poddy mullet traps with bread crumbs but had no success. I actually didnt see really any schools of mullet around. Is there yakkas or squid around that area or just mullet? And how do you catch them?
  6. Hi ive got a couple of questions regarding on how to mount my new bow mount swrt watersnake that i bought on the weekend. Im hoping someone could help me with the following questions Firstly are you able to mount the motor sideways? (Maybe refer to the photo) or will the motor not steer correctly And finally when I mount the motor to the bow should the boat itself be level and then level the motor up? Is that necessary?
  7. does maguiars oxidation remover work???????
  8. Hi does anyone know what is the best way to restore faded paint on my 1998 475 qintrex ? what are the best products to use and how do i apply them? and what is the easiest way to do this?
  9. i had a simalr issue , it happened when i went to start the boat the finder would reboot. It ended up being the battery, i replaced it and all was fixed
  10. did you end up fixing this problem as i have the same issue.. what did it end up being?
  11. After taking the boat out fishing evey weekend for the past few months my carpet in my boat has started to smell and look dirty now and i was just wondering what would be the best way to clean the floor? Its just simple marine carpet that is glued down to ply.
  12. thanks for all your help , i have bocked it in for a fuel pump overhaul and to check all hose lines . I hope this fixes the problem.
  13. If this keeps happening could it cuase damage to the motor??
  14. Well when i drained the tank the second time becuase of the e10 fuel and this problem i pump 60 litres out and i disconnected the hose off the motor and pumped it out using the fuel bulb . The fuel looked ok and i actually used it in my car and lawn mower and there running ok
  15. Im pretty sure its running on all cylinders because it doesnt sound like its missing or lumpy . It just doesnt wont to rev , its like its starving for fuel i think. If i pump the fuel buld it goes ok , it worked the last time i was out anyway
  16. what are you suggesting is the problem? water in the fuel? or dirty? as i have already drained the tank twice now? When this problem happened last i pumped the fuel bulb when the engine was going and it fixed the problem. any idea?
  17. when i had the service we changed the water/fuel separater filter. but there was another filter in the engine that we didnt change. also last time this happened (surge or loss of power ) i pumped the fuel bulb and it didnt happened again
  18. Hi,I have an issue with my outboard and i noticed it about three weeks ago when i went out to bobin head after a day of use. I was driving back full throttle and then suddenly the rev's just dropped from 6000 rpm down to 3000 rpm and it would not rev harder despite having the throttle right down , occassionally while limping back on 3000 rpm it would rev up then straight away drop back down to 3000 rpm. A couple of factors i can think of are i used e10 by misstake about three weeks ago which i drained out since , and i removed the under floor tank when i first purchased the boat about 2 months ago just to drain the stale fuel and clean it out. Im pritty sure its not over heating as i have just done a full service on the boat and replaced the impeller and plugs and gearbox oil about 4 weeks ago.
