  12. Depends on size of your boat and tide !   I have 15 metres of 8 mm chain and 100 metres of 3 strand 14mm warp with 10kg Bruce on 7mtr. boat.   The tides can be very strong round there so the more warp the better.     Mick

  16. Thanks Dave for the trip, we certainly had plenty of exercise with the congers up to estimated 50lb, only 4 dogfish I think, so that was a bonus ! Was only saying to Dave last week I had never caught a spurdog, and surprise, surprise 2 came along so was well chuffed ! A few whiting were caught but not big enough to weigh in, seems like we should of gone back for the weigh in Dave!! Well done to Stuie and Kev for scooping the prizes.

    short trip

    Gave Marichelle a run out today to charge her batteries, cruising at 16 knots in the main ship channel when the boat had a drastic loss of speed.........and a loud sucking noise ( behave boys !!!!) Turned the motor of immediately, lucky no big ships coming or going ! Engine is a VOLVO D3 160 and the problem was the rubber hose about 4 inches long connecting the aftercooler to the metal pipe that goes to the turbo had come off !! Managed to get it back on and limped back to Cobbs. The jubilee clips still have the green volvo paint on and it has never been taken off by me or my mechanic, but they were really loose on inspection , as were the ones at the turbo ! Tightened all 4 up and all appears to be ok now, turbo working etc. So if you have one of these engines or similar I would advise you to check how tight the jubilee clips on the hoses are !!! Mick
