  1. That's correct with the handbrake only engaging the rear wheels. Lucky my mate had quick reflexes.
  2. Hi guys wondering who maintains boat ramps. Today I was at Foreshore drive ramp retiring my boat after a days fish. We noticed the ramp is so slippery and getting a build up of oysters about a metre from the water line. As we were retrieving the boat the car started sliding into the water. Luckily my mate was able to dive into the car and pushed the brake with his hand. Is there anyone we can complain to about it. Surely they have maintenance programmes for such things
  3. I have a hds5x. Do you have to purchase a separate Ethernet cable to upgrade software. My sounder came with a power/Ethernet combined cable but don't know how you use this. Can anyone tell me how to go about this.

    Fuel tank

    Hi after leaving home at 430am fueled up only to get to the ramp and discovering fuel pouring out the bung holes. On further inspection and removing the tank I found about a dozen small pin holes in it. My question is where would be the best and possibly cheapest place to get a new one. Probably go around 60 liters and plastic. My current one is a 60 litre cruise tank
  5. Thanks Anthony the big 4 is where I am staying. What about outside boat fishing. Is there many reefs around??? Where is a good boat ramp to get out from
  6. Hi I am going to Umina this weekend. Can anyone tell me the best place to wet a line. I will be both off the beach and a mate will be up with a boat so any pointers would be great. Cheers
  7. Mate I recently built a trailer to go under my 15ft Yaltacraft. I used 100 x 50mm RHS all round. You could use 50 x 50mm for your cross braces and the boat would sit lower. Also I used pre galvanised steel that was not much more than plain steel. Dearest part were all the rollers. I used my old trailer as templet.
  8. I have a 85 Yaltacraft with 75hp Suzuki towed by a 98 Nissan Patrol. Boat name SNOOPY
  9. Mate check online shop I am sure I have seen them on there or try a trailer place. You should be able to just take the winch post and they can make it from that. Another place to try would be Mascot Steel I think they can make something up for you.
  10. I am putting the final pieces on my newly built trailer and putting the boat back on and hopefully putting it in the water on Monday DGF whats wrong with the trailer
  11. Thanks guys for the replies.I ended up getting all the rollers and brackets from Bias a bit pricey but I have them now. I will ing trailer city tommorrow. I need to get the springs asap am sick of reading about fish being caught and my boat sitting on the ground lol
  12. Hi I am currently rebuilding my trailer and need to purchase all rollers and springs. I know Bias supplies all these but wanted to know if there are any other suppliers around at a better price. Thanks in advance
