    wiring

    The devise you are wiring up will have an amps rating and the wire you use should be of that rating or larger. The fuse you install should match the rating of the devise then all will be ok. You will only melt wire if the wire is smaller and the fuse is larger than the amps rating of the device you are powering up.
  2. Here is one that just took the car.
  3. The total weight of the trailer and boat should be on the ID plate on the trailer.
  4. Hi Caines The height between the winch and the roller seems to be wrong. I can see what they are trying to achieve with the roller and the two hook positions with the roller locking in between them. really locks the nose of the boat in tight. You could get another piece of steel tube and put it under the winch to allow the rope to clear the roller. Regarding the towball weight be carefully as this will affect the way the trailer tows less weight will cause the trailer to sway at speed. More weight will upset the ride height of your car. On my setup I am towing 2000kg, I have 170kg at towball and it tows beautifully. A small movment of the boat can make a big difference so all you can do is move it a bit and take it for a drive.

    Boat Races

    March 8 & 9 http://www.aopc.com.au/race_calendar.htm
  6. I wunder how they made those videos, because the filming is so stable, maybe from a chopper.
  7. Safehaven Marine boat testing CLICK HERE FOR VIDS
  8. Agree with all your comments Pelican, they need to deal directly with the target and use things like the rego mailing and other places boaties frequent , such as taking up banners on sites like this and other boater sites.
  9. Hey Jig, Nice bit of Engineering that mate, very innovative putting those products together to make a great looking adjustable mount. Patent to Jig.
  10. This is where the GPS comes into play, just follow your out going track home.
  11. The Waste Transfer Station in you local area will take them and any waste liquid - Oil, petrol, paint etc.
  12. A Removalist company would be best bet, If you used a normal transport company you would have to strap it to a pallet to make it safe. A removalist will wrap it in Blankets and strap it in the van.
  13. Well done Blur, look forward to seeing the pics.
  14. Americian company developing Deisel Outboard. Only be good for replacing the big Outboards on large boats around the 6 metre size due to engine weight. Be interesting to see how this progresses over the next couple of years considering the outboard technlogy thats around at the moment. next will be an LPG conversion for 4 stroke outboards. http://www.megoutboard.com/index.html
  15. I think you only have fuel problem to much of it, that is why the spark is intermitent due to wet plugs. The spark is there but drowned in fuel.
