  1. Time your trip so you are never returning with the tide going out as this makes the waves stand up and break, with the horsepower issue my boat is a 5 metre plate ally rated to 70 hp, when setting it up the dealer recommended a 100 hp motor because it is the same weight as the 70 and also because the transom is built like a tank and at times ive used every one of those horses getting to keep up with the wave in front with 2 and 3 people in the boat, I would never consider 4 or 5 people in that size boat outside that is a recipe for disaster.

    2 chains are only needed on heavier trailers, my mini excavator trailer has a gvm of 3ooo kg and by law the 2 safety chains must be crisscrossed the idea being that if the trailer was to come of the towball the chains could cradle the trailer.
  3. G/day Paikea I bought the Webber gas lookalike from BBQs Galore and it can be used for smoking, they sell the flavoured wood chips and holder for the gas type webbers and probably have a instruction/cook book for sale as well, hope this is of some help regards bloodshot.
  4. Hi Make sure you check the kill switch at the controls where the key goes in, I have seen this happen to my brother, hope this helps
  5. G/Day Raiders Most of the man made lakes in these new suburbs are stormwater retention lakes and when they get to a certain level will overflow via stormwater pipes that flow to the nearest creek, river etc that could let the carp start breeding in other waterways, just a thought Cheers.

    I put mine out about 25 metres, the length of rope is cut to this length with a loop on the end which fit nicely onto the back quarter cleat of my plate ally boat. Check the strength of the cleat if it is a fibreglass boat.
  7. Hi there Doog Check out the kill switch at the controls, ive seen this happen a few times before Cheers
  8. I voted Didn"t it used to be that all Aussies owned the coast & river systems. I dont think this as changed therefore we should be allowed to recreational line fish where ever we please as long as we stick to the bag & size limits. I believe the Americans can rec fish where ever they like be it marine park santuary zone or what ever How can a state government change our federal constitutional rights. Cheers & Merry Xmas to all Bloodshot
