Nice one James another great report with quality pictures. You kayak guys certainly get about and seem to have some good days out Martin

Greg I also hope you do as I am looking forward to meeting you again. One thing is for sure you will get all the help you need from our end. Martin

Bump Don't forget to fish this one guys Martin

Jon If it's still available I will take it. Give me a call on 01202 721955 Martin

Happy birthday Terry Shame about the weather but I guess you still had a good time Martin

Hi Stephen and welcome to our clubs forum Regarding Cobbs Quay I would say its as secure as any others in Poole. All marinas attract thieving gits on occasions but MDL (owners of Cobbs) are a pretty responsible company and at least try to look after their punters goods. Martin

That's a good idea. We used to have a photo comp just for fun and without polls but we can do a poll along with the photos. Another idea could be to have a photo loaded and members put forward captions, could be fun. Any other suggestions? Martin

Those of you that have been using this forum for a while will know that we have in the past held competitions with prizes available for the winners. Well we have an amount of funds that could be used for forum prizes but we need some ideas regarding competitions. If you have any ideas of a competition format or even better if you could put a reasonably taxing competition/game together we would be pleased to hear form you Post here or pm either Paul D or myself Martin

Greg Your amongst friends here you will always get a lift from the station (bus or train) to the boat and we may even be able to find you a berth. Alderney is in the planning with no date set yet but Adam will be putting together our competition and Alderney dates soon (next week or two hopefully) We usually go during the early bank holidays but more info to follow soon. A few fellow members (me included) are hoping to get to Weymouth this year so may tag along with you on that one. Crew should also be no problem especially as may/june are top mid channel times Martin

Well your on here so it must be true............ oh btw I'm on here also so back up for your theory Martin

Yep WOW and here is the link to the article http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13...o=feeds-newsxml Martin

Welcome Stuart, enjoy the forum and the club. Loads of members keep their boats in Cobbs so as said above it shouldn't be to long before you meet some. What boat should they look out for and what pontoon or are you stack and store? Looking forward to meeting you either on a club night a social do or maybe if the weather is kind on the water sometime soon. Martin

Just looked at windfinder and the outlook for Sunday looks ok Dean and I are chomping at the bit so if at all possible we will be out after the cod. If the weather holds up anyone else going? Martin

7:30 for 8pm start Martin

also important is to monel wire your shackles to avoid them working loose and coming undone which is bound to happen at the most inappropriate moment Martin

I have a 6kg delta anchor attached to10 metres of 8mm chain with 140 metres of 12mm octoplait. I rarely have holding problems although in very large tides it has happened especially when I don't let out enough warp. I used to own a warrior 195 on this I had a 7.5kg brucealike with 7 metres chain and 210 metres of 12mm nylon and again rarely had a problem holding I think you 5kg or Duncans 7.5kg would both do the job but you will suffer less problems with the 7.5kg bruce Martin

That's great news Dennis Hope all your cod are bigguns Martin

I had a call today from our friendly rope supplier so I may have some 10mm rope coming in see my other thread in the members chit chat area Martin

None on the horizon for the foreseeable future and I doubt Mrs B would put up with all those spools of rope about the place again Martin

Haven't a clue but at least everyone that uses this board will know about it Martin

Graham Your first pictures are perfect size wise but don't go bigger that will make panning across the page a necessity to view any pics and wording Easy when you get it init Martin
