Will get them next time i am over, so no postage 🙂

give you a tenner for both 😊

Thanks for all the advise 👍

Thanks

My leisure batt may have given up the ghost, what is recommended for a replacement, i have a 105ah 1050 cca as my cranking batt

i often take my 28ft out on my own, sometime struggle to get her back in between other boats back on to my berth but pull her in using ropes.

Welcome, i really have dogfish envy 😊

I Have all next week off so will be out from Scarborough hopefully the weather is ok and this easterly drops off a bit

55lb off cornwall, gonna see if we can tempt some off the north sea wrecks

Had a day out last Saturday to the Wrecks, these Navionics charts are a game changer, as soon as you are on the edge of a wreck on the chart BOOM it shows on your sounder. Brilliant for anchoring.

Driving to work this morning saw a frog broken down at the side of the road........................................ it's ok it got Toad away. BOOM BOOM

well it's 80 ish miles but had to go to check batteries were ok and keeping pumps going to avert a environmental disaster (that was my story if stopped)

a good day , it looks like 😃

it is very sad that this happened and 3 lost lives but as previously stated "why didn't they bouy off the anchor" especially as they had 1km of vision. whilst the correct result of the prosecution it should have been avoided . please people be more aware of what is going on around you

Well the weather looked good on Friday so decided to have a day out fishing (first of the year). Got over to scarborough and set sail at 8.50am after rigging anchor and making sure we had enough water for coffee. Came out of the harbour and turned North (thats all you are getting) set the course on the AP and off we went. got to our 1st mark in about 50ft of water went over it a few times and dropped anchor, settled back on the anchor and Shit we were off the mark (oh well) up anchor and have another go) spot on this time (i had not taken into account the length of the boat and the fact we were letting go around 20ft from the bow, lesson learned) over went the baits i was using cart & squid and my mate using squid on a single hockeye. then wait but not for long had a steady stream of small codling (40cm) and 1 keeper. After having a fresh bacon sarnie we decided to move off a bit into 80ft of water where a bit more tide was running same sort of stamp but had 2 more keepers, fished to slack and first bit of flood then motored home back alongside for 1630. had a great day out can not wait for next time, where we are off to some wrecks to anchor up.

I too got into fishing early, used to go to Mevagissey every year in the 70's and go out with the Legend that was Bernard Hunkin, oh the days of 25lb pollack and coalies on the early red Gills (made in Mevagissey) loved plain Black. joined the RN and fished (drunk and sha**ed the world) caught Dorado in the persian gulf along with sharks, used to go on deck at first light to pick up flying fish for bait. caught a 35lb baracuda in mombassa harbour (which i traded for carvings). left the mob and lost my way a bit !! first boat was a Mayland 15Ft with a 30hp mariner on the back used to fish the solent and pompey. latest is Maria berthed in Scarborough , she is a 28ft Colvic Northerner. i love my fishing and its great to go where i want and when just great to be out on the sea.

Dunno Forgot ?

Send me all your details please 😊

You have to do it a few times and expect to fail sometimes, so many factors to take in to consideration. practice makes you better at it and gives you a feel of how your boat handles.
