Graham I think you will find the guys at Rockley flush your engine with muffs and quickly rinse the exterior of the boat. That has been the policy until this year but may change due to new management. There is water and power available in the yard should you want to do it yourself. Re cost in additional fuel with Rockley being at the wrong end of the harbour. In the summer months its 1/2 hour each way to the entrance in the winter its around 12 mins Make you own calculations but for me its 17-20 litres a day before we get to what I would consider to be a starting point. That said there are no stack and store facilities close to the entrance that charge sensible money I must say that this year the new yard manager has changed systems and tried to get the boatyard on a more professional footing, he is winning slowly. If he gets the funding from Rockley that he wants/needs to update things the yard should come good within the next year or so Martin

Only day I can make the boat show so sorry can't make this one that should give all you others a chance Martin

Rob Yours link doesn't work Martin

Alun Enjoy your holiday you deserve it almost as much as I do See you when you return Martin

Hi Lofty Thanks for the report. All reports short and long, lots or no fish are all helpful in building a bigger picture Cheers Martin

Last call before they go to the bin Martin

Well done again Thomas Have a look at our home page..... your getting famous Martin

Well done Thomas keep on showing the wrinklies how to do it and you never know one day they may even catch a fish Martin

and the comp winning fish came from 6 or 7 hundred yards or so off of Ballard with my blonde rays coming from a bank just 2.9 miles off ballard along with some bass and other bits. BTW nice report Adam and thanks for being the press boat, we needed one and you undertook the task admirably Martin

Really strange how scales can vary over a range of weights. We weighed the first blonde on the boat at around 21lb when finally weighed onshore it came in at 19lb 6oz so the original weighing was over. When Dean caught the winning gurnard it was weighed on the boat scales at 1lb 6ish but when weighed in ashore on the club scales it went 1lb 9.5oz so on this occasion the boat scales weighed under. just goes to show different scales are suited to different types of fishing Martin

I would like to thank on behalf of the whole club Rob and his little team of helpers, you are all stars. It may not have been the largest entry we have had in our opens but everything went smoothly and without a hitch, how do I know this? easy really as I didn't have to do anything and that for me was pure bliss. And if any of our club sponsors are reading this an especially big thank you to you. Without your support our comp would not be what it is and thats HUGE Thanks again Martin BTW Rob whats the date for next year

Paul If you don't go fishing on Sunday but still want to go on your boat a couple of us are planning on rafting up and having a picnic and drinks. You would be more than welcome to join us. We are thinking of going to Arne a very sheltered part of the harbour. Regards timing we will be out from about 11am untill we get fed up or run out of wine If you decide to come call up either AWOL or SERENITY on Ch6 for our location Same offer to all club boats and will post elsewhere Martin

I use the infamous wallet After beating the boat a few times with my trusty wallet everything seems to get cured. Also on the plus side after beating the boat with it a few times the wallet strangely seems to get lighter and easier to carry So the moral of the story is use your wallet and save headaches and back pains
