Hounddog

Hi all, need some info on Brizzy waters,never fished there before and am spending a week at saint huberts island. anyone who can give me some good tips would be appreciated. have a boat that is capable for blue water so was thinking maybe west reef for bottom stuff but would like some good GPS marks if we decide to venture . inside or outside I will take all the info you can give me . heading up there Tuesday so come on guys,give me the speel beforehand. Just want to say Merry Xmas & Happy new year to all the Fishraiders and there Families, Hope you all bag out on your favourite species over the holidays . Cheers All Hounddog

Problem fixed,turned out to be a loose magnetic washer on the float in the oil reservoir.This tank is a sealed plastic unit and costs over $100 to replace. Therefore I cut the float unit out of the tank,resecured the washer and plastic welded the float back in the tank Cost ? 30 minutes and a stubbie of VB. Thanks to everyone for your assistance with your replies

Sorry Bashir if you thought I did not appreciate your reply,but I do thanks. I had a few and waffled on a bit much (so I have given myself a right uppercut for sounding ungrateful) You helped to confirm that I think its a minor fault,but what I should have said outright instead of rabbiting on is that can anybody remember the name of the Mobile mechanic that was mentioned on this Forum some time back Its better to get somebody thats recommended first rather than just pick out of the phone book. Thanks again "Bashir" ( thats 1 slap on the head you owe me ) I will make sure I am sober next time I post

Thanks for the info Bashir but that don't really help me. I am not prepared to take the boat out with the alarm still going off. I need to find out if there is a problem and get it sorted because unless I am sure I don't want to chance destroying my motor.I am pretty certain the motor is in A1 condition as I always looked after it,thats why I think it may be an electrical fault(probably at the control box) unless I get a professional opinion or a on site diagnosis I will have to stay grounded &*^%$$# . I am not a happy boy at the moment,cause all my favourite haunts are fireing,so i need to get a fix quickly,because I am having withdrawal symtoms from not bein able to get on the water LOL. Please someone give me the name and number of a good mobile mechanic before I light a bonfire under my boat out of frustration. Come on Mr A. surely you can send me in the right direction otherwise I will rent your bed out next time you come to Sydney ie* were is the spell check for this forum Can you tell I am a grouch since I have been unable to get on the water

I have a "95" Mercury 60HP that has run like a dream since new. I now have a problem with the ALARM. As soon as you turn on the ignition the Alarm go's off. The temperature sender,oil sensor and Alarm modulator units are all in good working order as I have tested them. If anyone has some Ideas I am all ears. I feel it may be an electrical problem but I have no idea when it comes to this. If anybody knows of a good Mobile marine Mechanic in the Concord Sydney area I would appreciate a contact number. As I recall ,some time ago on this forum there was a recomended mobile mechanic that some of you guys gave the thumbs up. But because Mr Ken keeps changing the Web Site I could not trace back for the info But that is understandable because Anyone who moves from a great allround fishing spot like Calounndra to Tarree makes you wonder??? So I guess Ken you have burnt all your good fishing gear and just kept your box of plastics so you can still rape and pillage the Taree mangroves LOL Regards Hounddog. Have a great Xmas Everybody and Same to you Ken (give my wishes to your Mum and Porky for me )

If you know anybody at SWR ask them about the "Prawn" He lost a Haines "Breeze" and all his gear trying to negotiate the bar there. It pays to Listen to the Forecast from the Coastal Patrol and know the capabilities of your boat before you venture out.(will try and post a photo of this later) TAKE Note all Fishraiders we want you to have a safe and happy xmas this year HD

Every one should know this, its a breeding ground for nav markers. NB* the juvenile marker in the background, in 5 years time he will be a fully grown South marker. Gee's you blokes are stupid?? :-rod
