hi harold i was the old bloke on the house boat ,that gave you the hairtail ,glad you and your family engoyed them .thanks for the bottle of wine ''very nice ''also those under water lights at the back of your boat look great.i think they attracted the squid.hope to see you in the bay again cheers ray and boys.

in your case your impeller has position memory.
-
that video shows to me that motor is jumping out of gear .cheers ray
-
hi ,just a thought are you sure it's not jumping in and out of foreward gear ? cheers ray.

yes tie straps can be used , but you must have the correct strap gun to torque them.do not use garden type straps . it is recommendedthat if you change the v.r.o you run the first tank of fuel at 50 to 1 mix to safe guard against a fault in the system . also do not prime the oil to the v.r.o by hand ,after connecting the oil line ,in must draw it up it's self .another reason why you run a 50 to 1 mix .you can disconect the vro and use it as a fuel pump only,or you can fit an earlier type fuel pump and run 50 to 1 premix i hope this makes sense ,if your not sure p m me .cheers ray p.s i have done all this many times .

p.s once it's loose remove the hex screw all the way out .
-
this the way i do it ,control box off .hex screw loose [out about 3 or 4 turns leave the apex bit in the hex screw and hit it with a sharp wackor two .if you only have an allen key ,then with the hex screw loose use adrift or blunt punch and a sharp wack willdo it .cheers ray.

its the wrong size motor fitted from dealer ,maybe huey might pitch in,to me its a dealer problem created by the dealer.

looking at the recent photos of myself and my boys reminded me of the bfirst time i took then hair tailing ;not far from the recent trip /but how things have changed ' the boys have grown up 'i have got older and the hair tail have got smaller /i can still remember the look of horror on the boys faces when i landed the larger one in to the boat they both took off in side the cabin and pulled blankets over thier heads and the smiles on their faces when they landed the smaller ones /the old photos were taken in 1985 the recent one this year [sorry about the quality but the photos are coppyies of photos .times have changed but what has not changed is we still love fishing together and the smiles are still on their faces every time they land a fish be it big or small . cheers ray [i hope that never changes .]
more photos .i stood 5foot 7 inches at the time [shorter these days ] the big ones were great bto catch and eat but the smaller ones not worth keeping 'better to return them for another tims cheers ray
-
ok this is a first for me one of the boys [paul] caught a hairtail on a lure ;the first bight took out the gut area the second bit hooked him .unreal .sorry about the poor shot /late at night and too many beers on the house boat cheers ray

over the long week end while fishing for hair tail 'in cowan creek a surprise visitor / ia tap tap tap ,thinking it was another baby hait tail i held off striking /then tap tap bang over goes rod bent unlike the other times ;arrrrr maybe at last could it be a 6 or seven footer /after a short run and a tight drag up he comes on board in the dark .cries of its a rat kingie /no its a fat mullet / no its a salmon who thinks hes a hair tail 'quite a nice change from baby hair tails /but i was wishing it was a full grown 7 footer /all small hair tail were released except for damaged one that were b.b.q ed the next morn .ing .the salmon went about 5 to 6 pound cheers ray
