  2. As a Tech for the main supplier of 28 years working on new installs and Adsl repairs I work in the New sub Divisions of Kellyville and the Ponds and they are not installing fibre to the node in these areas so if you think they will be installing this in the next year or two in Sydney in established areas GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS
  3. USE STAINLESS TYPE NO BREAKING PROBLEMS
  4. How lucky are you I own the same boat including the colour first bait board was a Bermuda Type but after the rod holder brackets where broken on 2 trips decided to buy the genuine Ally type BOLTED ON WITH STAINLESS BOLTS AND SICA FLEX

    Grand Final

    I have watched the game 4 times and still can't score a point
  7. Best wishes to Donna and yourself Swordie in these painful times
  8. After installing the Radio next job the tank Aerial for the boat The biggest disappointed was most brands Gme and also the Navman brand didn't give the option of the main pole being removed So I ended up using this type The one thing I have found is the more holes you drill the more paint corrosion problems occur under brackets So after I drill the holes I Then hand touch up the inside of the holes with paint I also use Sicoflex under the brackets and this has stopped all my paint problems
  9. Though Id put up a post Re Installing a Radio in Dashboard I always crap myself at the thought of the Dash cracking whilst doing this type of work So hope this helps future installers I started with the setting of the template and the measure to fit Using masking tape as a bass prevent the drill slipping and fiberglass cracking Next job was to drill out the rounded corners using a smaller bit at first and working up to the correct size After the drilling was done out came the jigsaw make sure it's sharp and not to course I found that having a variable speed type helped also. Also support the cutout to prevent it braking off The fun bit now use stainless screws and wire to fuse box and pre drill to mount to dash
  10. I have 1050 on my475 Bar raider used a spacer block to lift it a tad and Stainless bolts and washers also Sicoflex to prevent salt water getting under the bracket
  11. This fella is mobile His name is Carlos Ive never used him but read good reports 0419 251 066
  12. Woody I had the same prob on my Allycraft I went from a 4500 on my genuine prop to 5200 max rev by changing the prop size/ pitch and height of the outboard also picked up a extra 10km
  13. This is the polished stainless type on my 75 Yamaha

    Happy Birthday

    Thank's a lot people I wish I didn't have the flu
  16. You have some Classy Mates Oz
  17. This is what I hope to see this Sunday coming
  18. Go you good thing Just hope Parra and Melbourne smash each other and go into extra time
  19. Gday We both own the same boat I would recommend you install in the other side as your ladder will be in the way Just relocate the battery on the ladder side and your sweet If you want a look at mine your more than welcome
  20. If you move the Draw bar forward by unbolting the clamps that would push the boat up closer and shorten the over all length 40 cm shouldn't make to much difference

    Paint Bubbling

    Mate sorry for the late reply Over all the paint jobs on the Ally's are good There biggest problem is at the welds or under the gunnel lips or where bloody bracket holed are drilled But the biggest thing that really pee's me is Why the hell do they drill hole in boats for aerial brackets and rod holder Yet Don't repaint unprotected edges or sicoflex every thing to prevent salt water corrosion If you want a cheap anti corrosion solution spray fish oil inder the brackets that crap goes off like honey and Ive found also helps heaps
  22. Gday I have the Lowrance Lms 339 which has a internal antenna I have had occasions where it hasn't lost reception at all And other times when the bloody thing has driven me crazy I would go the external if I had a choice again I have been told that the angle of the finder makes a big difference and If there is a lot of dried up salt on the windscreen can cause reception to be lost
