[straddiebrad]

we might need to have some kind of list on what people tend to bring such as lights,bbq,tarps ,just so we dont take to much of one thing, apart from the grog.you dont want say ten lights and no tarps,that sort of thing.brad

was thinking the northern side of caruso island????

the best spots are about half way or further up carusoe island from the pin bar

there is one spot with 4 big trees in a square to sling a tarp and a long sandy beach in front

[straddiebrad]

i think there heading down this weekend to sus some spots out,but a good boat anchoring would be a must with a few glass boats going.brad

brad north side of carusoe if protected from the predominant se-sw wind

the best way i've found is fore and aft anchor stern to the beach

lift the motor and let the boat sit on the sand at low tide if its low over party night

[Davo_Dinkum]

well the guys in small tinnys like mine can just drag the up the beach .more room for the bigger boats .

that 4 tree spot sounds like it could be a good 1 jeff.

i'm thinking taking a small 2 man tent and 2 sleep bags as i don't have a swag.

fishing gear ,grog and esky and more grog .some type of food .luncheon and bread or caned food i can eat cold .something that don't take up room in the esky.

[straddiebrad]

yer davo its going to be great i will take a small tent i will buy a cheapie and heaps of food i love my tucker eggs bacon snaggs beans the works may even con the wife in making a big stew

[Davo_Dinkum]

i got 3 small tents in the shed .i'll check if they are all ok ,and if so u can use 1 of them .save u buying 1 .

cheers mate,i was going to get a real cheap on from anaconda,and for the guys going on the friday u think dry ice would be the go or just grab normal ice from the big boat that cruisers around if its still running.

[dassa]

I'll bring my tarp 30x30 enough room for those sleeping in swags or for cooking under if that stuff falls from the sky.Camp oven for cooking stew or a large roast,a small bbq plate and last but not least morepiss ,morepiss and morepiss.Along with any thing elsewe might need.

Cheers Dassa :woohoo:
