Somerset in Jersey

Hi prowler long time. not been down to halcot place lately then, full of the blighters...

Been away a while so hello all. I have after many many good years of service decided my reals need to be replaced. question is what with? recomendations (not gold plated) for 1 fixed spool for spinning and beach work 1 x mulitpier for same and boat work help appreciated hello to the Jersey beans will have to have a bash very soon. If tide no good the beer.....

Thought you would be ok with this, surely you would send down 4 skin divers would have clmed the critter right down.

Thank you simon thought for the moment was going mad, we spent a lot of time on this before pity people do not seach and read.

As the site and quote "While a steady white light or hand held flashlight is all that is commonly required of kayakers, navigation lights add to your visibility. Check your local boating rules for more info." This is the from the US not UK. Remember Nav lights are for information of what you are, and confusion can create accidents.

Loosing your cool, in that manner only reinforces the bung poing of view. Then again George and zippy from memory were were controled by someone elses hand, and they bungled around. PLus it does not matter how many posts people have. Seems you gang thought you had the biggest conkers in the play ground. shame they were only acorns. And i thought this site liked criticism. remember in posts gone by someone got a red card for coments like you have just made.

OMG the mind boggles at the thought, and theres me just finished a Balti. two belts required tonight and nail down the douvet.

i agree mate just having a laugh, have you read neils post?

Dave do we need anothe rwarning such as neil posted, how many farts does it take to give more bouyancy?

May be so, and saying so is ok but i feel that stating who will sell them is a sales pitch and if they wish to sell then their is a way of doing it without using a forum like this, may be Agent might just wish to place a sponer link on the forum instead of posting as such. But how nuch would that cost? We can all make our own mind as to who and were we purchase items and post links to sites that assist.

another sales technique, can this forum please be resticted to none sales or assosiated posts for the promotion of sales and deal with the issues requested.

please read the previous exaustive post on Navigation lights. You only need the white, unless you are going to add an outboard or full rigged sail to your yak. If you are please add images for our amusement.

I agree great trial and conclusion as such i enclose a slice pie for those who wish to eat some.

after 20 years experiance in lead acid batteries and Yuasa, the recomendation is to have the battery in the upright orientation. they will still work but with experiance it pays to follos the rules. Please note that this applies to the charging position. constantly check the battery for deformation, i.e. swelling as this will show signs of overcharge and cell degregation. Yuasa is my prefered brand and manufacturer though people do use yucel, from tried and tested experiance these are far poorer quality cells and the charge held fails more. As the previous comment allways ensure the right charger is used.

Hope all goes well for you if you still need the local melitia just shout.

welcome to the Mad house

tried MFI?

No they had them on the Oceans as well. 15% saved a small fortune on tackle. And no haven't been out since last time but will be if we keep getting some calm nights. plus looking a taking some overdue holls so am checking the tide so i can pick the best week.

May Day May Day Calling OKreilley Johnson back up required

why which one has he got the hot one or the cold one ? Normally find they are followed by hot flushes: well thats what the wife blames them on...

shout loud and long. Wonder if they buy them through Johnson outdoors?

If this forum is anythink it has a direct link to NZ. So as long as the supplier bought it through the UK you should see a new Kayak arriving on Condor soon. Complain big style mate. Was in Iron Stores on Sat and noticed the major discounts on the NOC kayaks. Bad show...

As i posted in a previous thread, go here and get the new RNLI booklet http://www.rnliseasafety.org.uk/resources/...articleid=80463 it covers all the points above clearly and precisely. If you dont beleive the RNLI then you are beyond redemtion some screens from the disk they supply. please get the booklet. Even the none UK people.

never tie the wader tight. when you go in (if) they will fall down with the weight of the water. remeber not to struggle as this makes things worse. As has being said try the recovery out in a safe place. you will find out how every thing works. And beleive me practice makes perfect And if you can take a life saving course it help. My son has recently received a comedation from the state for saving a boys life whilst being on a safety boat in jersey. ANd i can only say that all that work and toil on training and the Sea Cadets paid of. I would never have beleived that he would be able to carry out the Heinlick (?) manouver in open sea but he did. Thanks to the Sea Cadets and the St Johns ambulance for training. You never know when you may need it. And as my son says i just did what i new and that was it. That says it all.. a VERY proud dad

following on from the most usefull tips and advice my wife has just started to take the RYA level 2 power boat course, and we have now received a booklet from the RNLI, titled "Sea Safety the complete guide" It includes a cd with all the information and games and practice on every stage from navigation to first aid. A must for all. seen a lot but can now say the RNLI have now done the dogs cahonas. Every one get one. Have been going through the Cardinal Marks for a revise and its good. Well done RNLI for releasing such a great cd and pacage.
