  1. Hey zoran i got a new one prop yesterday and it looks a lot bigger than the original that’s why i was asking about wear on alloys it doesn’t really matter because the one supplied doesn’t fit onto the shaft properly ie about 10mm play between prop and washer /locknut so will have to return it . I willsend old one so they what size i need but with all the postage i should have just got an original just something for others to think about
  2. The hull is i think from 1987 one motor I bought new in 2004 the other a 2002 vintage that i paid $900 for about 8 years ago boat originally cost me $5000 off a mate it only has a top speed of around 25 knots but its only calm water i do that so i cant see the point on expensive props but i see from your name your a hoon😊

    New prop

    So as i posted a few daye ago i had to replace a damaged prop,new one arrived and while its the same diameter it is larger than the old ones my question is would an alloy prop erode much after 20 years i do use the boat regularly but don’t know how many hours also being a twin setup will it affect performance much i dont want to do something that means i cant return new one if its not suitable or do i need to replace both props cheers
  4. Had a good look at both props both pretty worn out $240new delivered ordered one out of curiosity how much to rebush anyone know
  5. I can understand why he says hook it from the front but it’s a bit complicated what he does
  6. Hi all so i hit a submerged branch yesterday and bent the prop i have a spare one but the bush is damaged does anyone know how to remove the bush its on a tohatsu mc40
  7. Noel I’ve been averaging about 6 shovel nose each trip annoying the crap out of me and same for stingrays
  8. I may have still been at ramp my boat has twin 40hp tohatsu motors it was starting to get busy at that time and car park guy when I got back about 11
  9. Yeah parsley bay brooklyn tossers there today no brains
  10. Ha ha couple of weeks ago I'm live baiting squid for kings they kept getting destroyed by tailor gave up and took the rest home for dinner
  11. 5am on the water parsley bay brooklyn headed to pittwater thinking catch a few squid and some flatties for dinner. water was dirty so probably why no squid for me I've beendoing well on them lately but not today ok wife wants flathead as I've struggled lately and ended up buying some a few weeks ago. Drifting pittwater caught a 85cm old girl very wide across the head solid fish well I let her go and caught nothing but stingrays and shovel nose sharks after that. .pittwater has them in plagues lately it's all I'm catching .back to ramp and the clowns are there with ski boats jetskis and all there crap ,dancing on the pontoon even 1 goose has a chair on the ramp to sit and watch as they unload all there stuff on the bloody ramp
  12. Go to a tackle shop not a chain store one that specializes in only fishing and don't think you will be catching huge fish
  13. It's part of the package with these guys not cheap but I can see why. I don't know how they get around the license thing but it is well run and obviously legal and good fun
  14. Yeah we all complain about them but I always wanted to try one. My daughters got me a ride out of Brooklyn for my birthday last October and have finally got round to doing it today.the company that run it is great very focused on safety as you don't need a license to do it.good fun but I wouldn't be in a rush to buy one that said I wouldn't go sailing either if you want to try it out a great way to do so
  15. I got a written warning a few months ago over a rusty fire extinguisher from rms
  16. A warning is a good reminder I suppose but I've never been asked about the water.i always have water onboard and use frozen juice bottles of water instead of buying ice in the esky glad the boys had a fun day
  17. I live in berowra and it's a quiet crime free area but I have heard of trouble at car parks on the river a holes everywhere unfortunately
  18. Sorry to hear that are you talking about berowra up Hornsby way?
  19. Funny I thought about a single cab but nowhere to throw a bag or whatever turned me off
  20. Hey it's you're money whatever makes you happy
  21. Yeah I hear so much crap about towing loads pay loads and then they add every accessory known to drive around Sydney.the old Ute had a bull bar and did save damage when a semi backed into me at port botany but I only used 4wd for maybe 5 hrs in 14 yrs .I got 4wd again because dealer told me wait for 2wd could be a lot longer as there not as popular. I wanted white as it's a work car but that was a longer wait so got there first delivery which wad grey I'm glad I did looks nice
  22. Don't know what I done there but anyway 10 yrs warranty but only If serviced with Mitsubishi any repairs I will do myself or local mechanic. The old triton was the most reliable car I've had but getting too many km.s and a change in working made sense to upgrade.also a tax thing
