Yarraone Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Hi everyone, Just wanting to make sure that I tried the right spot and will be able to find base when the next social is on.... I will be lauching from Rose Bay ramp and hitting the wedding cakes and around sow and pigs as well as the heads..I am haveing trouble locating Clifton Gardens. I have included some photo's if anyone can put me in the right direction please..Is it inn the same bay as the UNI dive station at Chowder Head? or is it the next bay over and around towards the heads? I have herd that the fishing is hoting up and I cant wait to get amoungst it.. I dont want to be spending to much time searching for base... This is 2 photo's where I thought it was???? "The Red star" In this photo the red star is as above(naval Dive Base Chowder Bay) The Yellow star , Is where I think it might be?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattycoss Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 (edited) hey mate awesome photo first of all; never get sick of seeing the city like that but basically clifton gardens wharf where people talk about being landbased from is that wharf just above/next to where your red star is.......so if youve got a boat i guess anywhere around there's good the wharf in the 2nd photo im pretty sure you cannot access from land as its secured for the navy base or something good luck though im about to head to pittwater myself....hope you catch something Edited December 7, 2008 by mattycoss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yarraone Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 Thanks for the help guy's ...as a AFN map I have marks the yellow star as Clifton Gardens. Which made it all a bit confusing.. Well good luck to all and I hope to be amoungst them all soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flightmanager Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 On the day of the social , just use your nose!! Many Raiders use the smell of the Fishraider BBQ as a navigation marker !! Just turn left out of the main harbour when you smell bacon and eggs cooking!! Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Careful going on the boat around there... ive actually seen people that fish there throw sinkers at boats because of the waves the boats produce.

This will be our 3rd social there , and to the best of my knowledge , no Raider vessel has been used for target practice. Perhaps because we use a bit of courtesy and common sense when we are approaching the wharf area. Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
