Anyone been there lately? Has it been producing fish? Thinking of going for the long weekend, have a mate's boat with me.

Where I go, and I am no expert. The beach side of The Entrance where the lake opens to the Ocean, people always fish there. See some good flatties come from there. Under the bridge where the Boat hire place is, people fish there for blackies all the time, but not sure if they are there anymore. But people always fish along there.

No fish there mate

Small reds hey? Wonder what my Reds are in your eyes!

Congrats mate! I have the Mitusbishi Challenger and for the money you pay, I couldn't be happier. Used to tow my 1600KG boat like nothing. But I love the big mirrors and reverse camera. SO handy!

I will never forget when that happened to me at Jervis Bay but I let the rod and reel go. My mate on the boat doesn't know how to drive the boat so I thought I better not risk it. Was a Kingy that took my rod.

Sounds good to me. Last time i had other brands for bilge pumps and all burnt out. Got the rule and never stopped working. I will look into them. Thanks gugs!

Hi guys, What are some good brands here for reliable bait tank pumps? I am thinking Rule or Johnson. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Just want a pump that is going to last. Reliable. Thanks!

Hi Guys, I called up RMS and got it figured out. So both boat and trailer are registered in QLD so it's not too hard. I am getting it down here via truck. In case anyone needs to know, these are the steps: Trailer: Need to get blue slip Interstate papers Current license Hand plates in Fill in two forms Pay the amount Boat: Hand in Vessel rego papers from QLD $29 transfer fee Purchase new numbers, need 5 of them. $10 small or $20 large And that should be it.

Can a moderator plese put this in the boating section? I made a mistake!

I looked up somewhere that you have to get the boat off the trailer, go to a weighbridge, get some sort of certificate etc. If so, I think that is too much of a hassle. Need someone to confirm the trailer bit.

Hi guys, Has anyone recently bought a boat and trailer from qld? What exactly is involved in transferring the boat and trailer to NSW? Any information would be appreciated here, thank you

Awesome, thanks mate!

Found it. This is the product code if anyone is interested. Google that > Australian sites and you will find it. CG2-6W-F - SWITCH PANEL, 6-GANG, BLACK

I've been to several boat shops and I can't find this exact switch panel. Anyone know where I can buy it from?

Hi mate, is this the tyre reef you are talking about? Or the other ones? I didn't find any of those spots any good when I went.

Hi mate, I have been there twice within 6 years! I don't have a family but I still have a couple of mortgages and it was tough. Like some of the posts above, 6 months later and there are no regrets. Mind you my packages were way smaller as I was only in the company 1 or 2 years max. The amount you are getting is quite a large amount and should be enough to carry you through to another job. If you are concerned about the less pay by staying within the company, and you know you are worth more, then why not take the risk, accept the redundancy package, have some faith in yourself and begin looking for a new job?It will happen!

Where is this? How did you get out? Or are you messaging from there?

Where was Fab1?

Well did I have an exciting weekend! Been wanting to check out Newnes for quite sometime! I have a 4x4 but it's fairly new and wanted to see what the roads were like first before I took it down. Got to the beautiful creek crossing at the very end. There was a wombat drinking water. There were a bunch of guys across the other side what sounded like chopping some wood for the night. After a few photos made my way back to the car. Reversed out, saw the ditch but was distracted by putting the heater on. I had a quick glance and thought I reversed enough to clear the ditch as in the dark didn't seem that bad. I always reverse more than enough to see the ditch but this time I thought - I'm sure I am fine. Start to take off slowly with my eyes on the heater settings and I hear a bang. Thought I hit something! As I looked up I realised my car had completely fallen into the ditch! Geez it was hard to get out, I tell you that!! On the inside it feels like if I moved any more over it would of tipped! By the time I got out and was thinking - ok - WTF - now what! ( ) Can't believe I put the car in this hole! I am such a good driver and normally really alert! I spot roos before they jump across the road! - I remembered seeing some big 4wd's as I came in which I'm sure had winches. As I was about the make the trek back, I saw this white Patrol approaching. It was the boys from across the creek. They heard the car roll and the horn go off as I bumped it by accident on the way down. Lucky for me they had a winch that was just recently repaired. Couldn't thank them enough for their time and help. They came to my aid so quickly! They knew what they were doing too! I've been eager to get into 4wding - who would of that my first recovery would of been in a corolla! I will put this up on the 4wd action forums later! But if they are reading, thanks a million!

Hi mate, I am sure I read one of your other stories! You are absolutely right. Nothing beats helping someone. It's more rewarding to give than accept. As for being redundant, I have been there twice. It's hard, and I am sure the right job will come along!

Good to hear

Good tip if you park it outside.

How are you finding the suzuki?

I am sort of in the same boat! Looking at these units and remembered the RayMarine ones at the show. Are they any good? They are within the same price range depending on size. They look good. But have no knowledge of them. I was set on lowrance.
