Terrigal Boat Hire - Better Than 6hp

[tan the fisherman]

Hi all,

Can anyone advise where in Terrigal, or close to, I can hire a decent boast to get out amongst it? By decent Im talking a decent sized motor, greater than 6 horses? I have a boat licence but no boat and will be in Terrigal over xmas with the rest of Australia.

many thanks guys,

Tan the

I don't think it is legal for any proprieter to rent out vessels with motors above 6HP whether you have a licence or not. This is one of the limits above which you must have a licence and while I can't give exact details about NSW I do know that in Qld they made the Rules and Regs for hiring boats so restrictive that my father sold out of his business.

Secondly there are restrictions about which waters are accessible for hire boats and it does not include open water. The boats available on Brisbane Water (Gosford to Ettalong Point) are not permitted past Half-Tide Rocks.

I hired a boat up at Forster a few years back and as an aluminium half cabin at 16 ft it had a 10 HP motor but it had been limited to prevent speeds above a few knots.

I would think that the only way your going outside fishing up here without your own boat is on a charter.

Or perhaps a friendly FR will give you a run while your up this way.
