queensland Wavebreak island Mackerel to Marlin Social 2

[tugger]

March the 2/3/4th will be the date to kick off the next camp at the island unless the weather is shocking then we'll go for the following weekend. Everyone is welcome wether you have a battleship or kayak as the island is well protected for any size vessel and most throw up small tents just back from the beach.

Bring firewood if you can and don't forget your fold up chair to kick back on the beach with a coldie or 2. The early mornings will see most of us heading offshore after the speedsters but there is plenty of broadwater to chase fladhead etc.

There will be a large tarp to get under and out the sun during the day and plenty of beach to have a swim or fish from. These trips are blast and the company couldn't be better with the AFO Wanderers group welcoming new and old freinds each time

[sehrguht]

I already have more firewood and will be taking the friday off from lunch to get down there earlier.

[AZZA]

We will get down there Friday arvo can't wait to get amoungest the razor gang this weather is doing my head in so far this year

Would I need an epirb?

[haines490slc]

Under Section 9A of the Transport Operations Marine

Safety Regulation 2004, a ship must be equipped

with a 406 MHz EPIRB if it operates beyond smooth

and partially smooth waters and if more than two

nautical miles from land.

[tugger]

Not at the mermaid reef where the mackerel run no epirb needed

[Bri The Pom]

Could'nt find too many photos from the last ones sunday session.

[tugger]

Got a few mates and there boats outside of AFO showing up for this one now as well it should be another cracker of a weekend

[Bri The Pom]

Were going to need a bigger island soon.

[mick fillet]

:whistle: the big russian???

[Snaggers]

Hey guys,

I'm pretty keen to join you all, I may even be chasing a couple of deckies. Just a couple of questions.

Where do you launch from?

Is the parking secure enough?

Any camping fee's?

[tugger]

You can either launch from the spit ramp just past seaworld or the ramp opposite the grand hotel at southport for the closet ramps if you want security there is runaway bay marina and its 20$ a night there is no camping fees on the island

[aussie123]

Most boats are launching at the ramp near Seaworld and all cars have been safe there for the 3 days so far.

Camping is free on the island as well.

[mick fillet]

Hey guys,

I'm pretty keen to join you all, I may even be chasing a couple of deckies.

hey leave the deckies alone they need all the rest they can get for pulling our anchors up

be good to meet you snaggers cu there

[crazywalrus]

Hey mick is it to late to put in for the roast Goat? if not count me in.

[haines490slc]

Hey mick is it to late to put in for the roast Goat? if not count me in.

bring a cut of meat to chuck on the spit, I will have my camp ovens too if the spit gets overloaded. As the head rotisseri chef :whistle: please PM me for tips on the best cuts of meat.

[mick fillet]

na we should be able to do a few chooks on the one rotisserie. brad is organising the goat (thanks to madmullet). small chooks are definatly the go i was jus guna grab 4 small chooks from coles. i dont mind buying a med bag of washed spuds to wrap in alfoil.

hey eddie bunnings have replacable rotissorie shafts 1400mm long for 15 bucks might be a good idea.might get the ends away from the heat a bit more.

main thing we got to watch is the weight capacity of the motor, may be worth getting a bigger one??

[tugger]

I'll have to go and hunt up some more wood to for this trip and if anyone else can it will all be handy

[Malcolm]

[haines490slc]

I'll have to go and hunt up some more wood to for this trip and if anyone else can it will all be handy

[Eug]
