I can launch Sweet Honey single handedly at Lymington, Warsash, and Cobbs. I can only retrieve her on my own at Cobbs and Lymington either at high or low water, anywhere in between I need help. Basicly this is because I can tie up the boat to get my trailer and then 'walk' the boat over to the trailer. Only used Baiter once, but I guess I can do the launch but retrieving I will need a very long piece of rope and an anchor to stop the boat from floating away.

I use this site for fish id. Fish ID

You can top up the portable power source between drifts if you wire up a ciggie socket from the battery.

It's ok, they're all business expenses.....

Weever (weaver) fish?

Is/was there an artist called John Dory?

Fuel economy should be better than BW if if can fish 6 onboard.

Is the Latin fish a Conger?

You can pick up a mobile power pack for around

The only citrus fruit I can think off relating to fish is Lemon, but can't think off sole = smoothies....

1 Sauage and 2 (flattened) eggs.....

Ditto....... Wishing everyone a happy new year.

Martin, It's not working the system. Obivously your business is very important to you, without it you wouldn't have your boat, so it must be working 100% at all time. You just can't afford to have a flat battery when you are supposed to be going to a job. Change the battery before it goes dead on you. It's call maintenence . You may then dispose of the old battery in whatever way you choose, the council dump is one place springs to mind.....

Bembridge Marine over at the IOW does a lot of breaking, give them a ring, their no is at Boatsandoutboards.

Congratulation PJ, a well deserved belated birthday present.

The comp is gonna be known as 'Catch a cod and win a prize competition'.......

But Charlie, when we retrieve the anchor using an alderney ring, we never 'run over' the rope. We motor the boat so that the wrap is between 0300 to 0500 or 0700 to 0900. If the anchor does catch solid then all it will happen is the boat does a gentle swing round.

Whenever you want to pull the anchor with your boat, make sure you tie it to the bow and NOT the stern!!!! The former will cause your boat to swing round-no big problem, the latter will cause your stern going under-BIG problem!!!!

Dan, did you buoy the rope? If you have, you can always go back for it.

I got some lines, a bottle of ground bait oil, and some day pass for fishing next year.

I take it from the lack od reponse, that he had a (more than) wonderful night and is still under or has he got a pass fishing? Happy Birthday either way.

Best to remove the cover at the wheel end and seee if you can free it, just a series of bolts.

Nice fish, a wonderful end to 2005.

Only cod will count in this comp, so with the dire state of cod fishing in general, there is every chance that there will be no winner at all

Tell you what, I'll get you your coat ..........
