  1. I have 3 tanks with quicksilveer tank connectors in the boat, one went with the Mercury 100, but I got a new one with the Tohatsu. the dealer very nicely changed the connector on one of the 2 old one to the Tohatsu type, but the Quicksilver tank I cannot change because the connector is part a big 'blob' which also includes the fuel left/level window. What should I do?
  2. Wow PBSBAC the place to be....
  3. Coddy, can I have a copy of the 'Hang Frog' please, I think my missus would love that. I will bring Sweet Honey, so crew needed.
  4. Should have gone to Specsavers......(sorry couldn't resist)
  5. I didn't get the chance to take the boat out today to break it in. So I'm available to crew if anyone wants crew. On the other hand if we are stick for number of boats, I'll bring her down but I'll need some marks as I haven't any around poole.
  6. Duncan, the water should still be fairly cold so you can onion sack the beers and daggle it overboard, regarding food, you'll just have to eat what you catch

    What is tactic and bait for giltheads? Personally I prefer the black bream, gilthead has a courser texture than black, however, red is much nicer than both. Can we get red bream in our water?
  8. Thanks Paul.
  9. Wow busy next few weeks for you James. Now lets get all the fishing in, you won't be able to once the little arrives....
  10. I would agree with 'Size matters!' It's acknowledged that large crafts take longer to stop and the highway code of the sea is that you watch out for larger crafts. There isn't much point of arguing who was at fault if you are dead.
  11. Fish have names? Whatever next/!
  12. Where is Sconse buoy?

    Do giltheads come as far up as the Solent?
  14. RE: 48 hours window? Are you guys planning to spend the whole time out at sea?
  15. 535 has really small deck space compare to the other 2. Although hull is good, consider the Sheltie as a fishing boat lots of deck space.
  16. Well done Jack, you're braver than a lot of us.
  17. Sorry, just been (politely) pointed out 31st is half term, and my sons would like to see me sometimes especially I'm already fishing the 29th, 3rd, 5th,11th,12th, possibly 18th/19th.......
  18. Tuesday is my day off, I'll come if I can get crew. Spoke to Rob Thompson on Tuesday and he said no smoothies yet in the solent, and plenty of weeds.
  19. The 18/19th is mid tide so shouldn't be much of a problem. Because the weather has to be absolutely perfect, why don't we pencil in a few dates, just incase the first one doesn't work out.
  20. Cheap(er) petrol and diesel over at Jersey and Gurnsey...... The 18/19th is mid tide so shouldn't be much of a problem. Because the weather has to be absolutely perfect, why don't we pencil in a few dates, just incase the first one doesn't work out.
  21. It's here. All about the rips.
  22. I have 3x25l tanks plus a 20l jerry can, so I suppose I will have enough gas, will give it a go if weather is calm.
  23. Here's another fishing club up 'that' way, not sure how far is it from Shetland. Stornoway
  24. Can I answer you once I have the outboard sorted, and see how much gas it comsume.
  25. How far/where is the rips?
