Re: Like your steak rare, not your engines

Thanks for the feedback lads. So it needs a new stator and power pack. Those parts run pretty exxy in Aus but done a bit of research and can get them about half the price delivered from the US. In an ideal world I would just replace the engine, but I don't really have the coin. So I'm thinking i mig...

Like your steak rare, not your engines

To each their own, but for me, there's nothing better than a juicy rare steak. Succulent and delicious. Engines on the other hand, are a commodity best served well done. When I purchased my boat some 18 months ago, I should have been more careful when selecting the motor. It was in great condition, ...

Re: Penfold Marine

Was ringing around and everyone was pretty busy. Alan said if I bought it in straight away he'd look at it otherwise he had a 6 week backlog.

Thought it was worth the trip and get it looked at straight away. I've got an addiction to maintain hah

Couldn't tell you Matt, my old man organised it.

Penfold didn't seem that keen on the business.

Anyone else got any recommendations for a reliable Evinrude mechanic? Anyone dealt with J.V. Marine World in Braeside? That's close to work

Cheers

Fishing Trip For Dads 60th

Gday All, Hope everyone is boating a fish or two! It's my old man's 60th coming up on boxing day this year and was hoping to get some recommendations on a fishing trip to celebrate. He's not big into parties so I think he'd prefer to wet a line. Haven't really worked out an exact budget yet as tryin...

Re: Anymore snapper around?

Went out on the weekend. Deep mud out from st leonards in 22-24 metres. Sounded some of the biggest arches I've ever seen, but couldn't get them to go. Using fresh trevally, squid and salmon. Missed the sunrise though due to unforeseen circumstances so was fishing mid morning. I would play the perce...
