Paul J

The boat looked good as you passed me in the harbour, i was on the yellow Kayak. Thanks for slowing down as you passed PJ

The spare towels is a good tip PJ

One to watch on Monday http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00v7tmd?ref=nf

Happy Birthday Nige and Mick PJ

i predict there will be a ban on anchoring in the sensitive areas. Us drifters will be ok PJ

Happy Birthday Paul PJ

reading between the lines Charlie, i suspect you are hinting that im a short arse. No, although i was even shorter back then, those are humbolt squid wieghing aprox 25lbs each not calamari. We did used to catch calamari at night using spotlights, you could litterally scoop them up in a landing net, a dozen at a time PJ

Heres a couple of small ones from a while ago

I was on a 21 last night - cracking boat PJ

Rob, It seems to me that your crew are doing a tad better than the skipper on JoJo these days. Time to book a trip with you soon i think PJ

It's just your bog standard Johnson/evinrude connector I leave the tanks on board but switch ( single fuel line) from one to the other , however i use them more than most http://www.force4.co.uk/5430/Moeller-Johns...-Connector.html PJ

Well, i've had 700+ hours of carefree fun with my etec 60, it still starts first time everytime. I did have a slight scare the other day as i was returning up the harbour, the motor started surging as if it had a fuel starvation issue. I had to keep putting extra power on to keep it from stalling and much to my relief made it home ok. Fuel filters at the tank and the engine checked out ok so i was a tad worried and contacted Paul at South Coast outboards. I was lucky to catch him the day before he went on holiday and he kindly came over and hooked up the laptop. No error codes found which was a mixed blessing, it wasn't serious but what the hell was causing it?. We eventually found it was the fuel hose connector, the seal had failed so it was sucking air. A quick fix and it's running sweet once again. Just wanted to pass this on as this was a new one for me and not something i would have normally thought to check. PJ

Wel done Brian, Top skippering PJ

Happy Birthday Colin PJ

Well done Charlie C a 5lb fish is a good one and not bad for a conger basher Sneaked out this morning to check things out, not a fish in sight, on Thursday they were all over the place PJ

Wow, Well done boys, i hope the 8 -6 bags you both trophies Charlie - a cracking photo and very handsome fish, one to treasure PJ

Theres a lot to be said for a mooring up the river PJ

Joe, Was your anchor rigged to trip correctly ? eg: attached at the bottom and cable tied to the shaft? If not do a search for previous articles, if it's not there ask, there are no silly questions on here and those questions can save you lots of time and money PJ

Dads birthday, brother over from Aus, lots of familiy stuff so i cant make it PJ

Sorry to hear this news, can you give us anymore details so other boat owners moored on the quay can be made aware cheers PJ

One to watch me thinks

All reports are useful, for me this one confirmed my decision to stay home yesterday. It's always good to know what conditions and fishing were like , good or bad Thanks for taking the time PJ

Well done Thomas PJ

Very well done to Rob and his team plus all those who chipped in PJ

Rays released at the PBSBAC Open comp weigh in
