That is what I thought It was scary

About 5 years ago A mile east of Ballard Late summer Caught a blue buoy travelling north at 6 knots, probably a set of pots or a net. Managed to capture this on the boat. It managed to pull the boat backwards, at 4 knots until the handle on the buoy broke. 3 ton boat, 9 foot transom, 4 knots, backwards, some power!!! Tony

Try red rocket fuel on the bearings and a piece of innertube to hold the spool like the beach casters. I am using this setup with my sons uptidet now arthritis has set in Tony

One day does not make a 48 hour comp I was looking forward to dusting off my son and getting some serious commitment from him Sadly I think we will have to go for another weekend Tony

Serenity :- Tony, Martin D, Luke .W

Great competition, caught some Mackeral, some good Tope but no Bass despite travelling msny miles go obscure marks. Well done Chris

Welcome to the club Mel. There are quite a few of us at Cobbs so will probably bump into you in the clubhouse What pontoon are you on, as you can see from other threads on this site that there are several people on F Pontoon, but there are also quite a few of us on B. You will notice it is much more civilised than trying to launch at Baiter. Tony

Hi Are you looking to navigate with an iPad Not sure how this would manage a long passage I use my navionics plotter around Poole arbour if driving MVS boats but it will switch off after s time It may be worth going out we with someone with installed kit for s comparison Happy to help if you share fuel eyc. Tony

Terry is this still in date I have one but they are begging for mor money Tony

Come to a club meeting at Parkstone Trades and Labour Club, Ashley Road, and meet the guys. There is a lot of knowledge there you can tap into about the club, fishing, boat handling and safety,. Meetings are 7:30 for 8pm on the first Thursday of the month. See you there Tony
