  1. Rhino was a death row rescue staffy and went the way of Mac the death row rescue staffy....Mental problems leading to premature euthanisation. We gave him a great life though short. Went through a kitten fostering period, then got Woody. No more man size poos to clear up! How are your 2 Brian?
  2. As a regular (Lucky!) Decky Bitch I would like to add my comments. Before I got my boat licence I was obviously not allowed to drive. Since gaining my licence I have been afforded the opportunity of piloting some craft. At all times I have seeked the skipper's advice on what to do, at no time have I believed that I was the God! The same applies for deck duty. Ask the skipper what he or she expects out of you. This stops any animosity or misinformation ruining the day. Offer to pay yer way, ask what they want and pay it, it's still cheaper than a day down the local tavern. Ask if they want a hand cleaning the vessel. It is just a matter of communication.........Easy as! B)

As your steaks over here are fantastically tender, tasty and big, any bits that are tough on the chew get put in a ziplock bag and into the freezer for any future Colmslie raids! (At home of course, not when dining out!) So to answer your Q; Medium to rare!
  5. This is Mac, the 8yr old rescue Staffy, giving it his best Mad Max impression in the Valiant.........
  6. RayKe, thanks for that cut and paste I'd already checked all the reviews via Google, but there is no better review than from an impartial fisher who has actually bought one and has experience of it.......How di you know I was 5 minutes from Wondall Marine? :dry: I usually get a wry neck or nearly mount the central reservation everyday when I pass by!!!! Thanks for the info, boys! (Where are the boat owning girls??) I've also decided on a name, very close to my heart, but the boat donk isn't anywhere near the size of the donk in the originally named vehicle if you get me drift.....
  7. Now swaying towards a Stessco 4.2 DXL Skipper. Anyone got one? And if it's on a Stessco trailer could I have on the trailer overall length measurement and height to top of screen without bimini, or bimini folded. And a review, please! Thanks in advance,
  8. Had a little measure up and I've got a tad over 6m length to play with, but I'm restricted to 2m height, 2.8m into the garage where the door mech is. Can't change that as it is a rental.....Keep it coming chaps! I can also measure some boats at the swapmeet on Sunday
  9. I am totally ready for all the abuse and comments. Do you own one, Shortie? My basic goal is to get a boat that can take me missus and kids out around the bay and obviously be suitable for fishing with me mates; estaury, river and bay. Interesting stuff, already chaps! I have added the approx weights to my original post.
  10. Hello Peeps! I am continuing to research boats and asking advice here and there. I've narrowed my search down to; Quintrex Lazeabout '88-'92 4.5m. 560kg on trailer Seafarer V-Sea 474 4.74m. 700kg on trailer Or if the money starts flowing out me arse; Quintrex Freedom Sport 490 4.9m. 900kg on trailer.(500 Freedom sport) Here's the question; How long are these rigs on the trailer. Tow eye to furthest point at the back. (I would probably need to drop the outboard down to gain a few less inches) And what about overall height on the trailer with bimini folded down obviously. Would a Freedom Sport 500 5.07m be any longer than the 490 when on the trailer? This is all a fair way off yet, but I need to know what will fit in me garage!! TIA! I aasume I can drag these around behind me Falcon (one at a time of course )
  11. What's the go with catching these big fish on light line (or is that a topic in itself?). Is it a question of taking yer time, ie letting them run, 'til they are beat? Or hoping it's an oap fish and just doesn't have the fight? Perhaps a better thread would be how many big fish landed on light gear as a ratio to big fish snapped off on light gear Great thread Since Shorty started the ball rolling there have been some pretty spiffing reads lately
