G’Day

Another thing to think about is what are you going to tie the anchor rode off to on the RIB. Do not use anything that is only glued on. The glue will eventually fail. Try and avoid running the rode over the pontoon material if possible. This will become an exercise to see what wears out first as...

Love to dive with you, but I think I hear my mother calling me, thank god😁

If we are both thinking of the same person I think you will find it is Iain, not Ian, just to be pedantic 😁

Possibly, the Lee-Enfield Magazine Rifle Mark I was produced In 1900. It had a detachable 10-round magazine box. It was made available for colonial troops. The 303 @clownfish found is severely sawn off, I would be surprised if it was for any legal purpose. No barrel means no rifling marks on the...

. You may notice he doesn’t show getting back on his pwc

I learn something new every day, I always spelt it alpha, thanks

Have fun, hope it all goes well

Just to be pedantic when you say surf I assume you mean waves and swell. A few random thoughts, and I have no knowledge of Florida diving conditions and boating regulations. 1. The thought of drift diving without a competent boat driver scares me, they need to be able to follow your bubbles/...

Can’t help with recommendations on the chart plotter, but have you tested the SD card in another plotter. Lowrance may have some sort of lock on the original card, or can you borrow a card from someone to test in your CP Worst case take your card to you favourite chandler and say I am...

I got hit by a car once when I was crossing the road ( on foot) to get to my LDS, does that count?

I have found that money changers away from airports gave the best rates, but I have never been to Sorong, this web site may help https://www.stayrajaampat.com/ultimate-raja-ampat-guide/information/money-banks-and-atms/

An MOB system is another piece of technology that can go wrong. I think they are a great idea, but another competent person board is a damn good idea. They can stop the boat bring the boat back to you call for help help you get back onboard I have also done delivery trips with one person on...

But who won?

At the risk of stating the obvious, and this really applies to all boats. make sure all the shackles used for the anchor, chain and line (rode for you purists) are tightened and wired so they cannot vibrate loose. Inspect all component regularly. I was once on a charter that suddenly started...

The "contact us" link doesn't help ?

To be pedantic the article says “compression bottle”, but news.com.au has never been famous for accurate reporting. The local paper in Geelong may have more information but it is behind a paywall when I try to access it...

Enjoy Tasmania, it is a really lovely place, the water will be damned cold compared to Fiji. The temperature in Northern Bass Strait is 14C or about 57F at the moment. Just a hint, don’t tell Tasmanians you have been to Australia, tell them you have been to Sydney or Cairns on your way to...

Tasmanians have been known to be a bit touchy about things like being left off the map of Australia, Does Australia/Tasmania mean you will be in Tasmania or Australia and Tasmania 😁😁😁
