    40 to 30 years ago this was known to the few locals who had 4WD's in the Geraldton, Northhampton area. It was paradise, pluck oysters off the reef while casting out for Spanish mackerel. Series 3 Landrovers and 70's Toyota's, sleeping bags and a tinnie, ice box for the catch. Those times were free. Wish you could have shared them mate.

    Love it Harry... we have one of these in our set up. Our dog loves it and we use it mostly in the blackwood River down south. We have a 2.5 horse Mariner Two stroke for it and it hammers along nicely. Don't think I would take it anywhere in the ocean or wider water like an estuary but in sheltered water they are great. Takes a while to get used to the water bed feeling underfoot when moving along but I can say that they are definitely stable. Perfect for two people and a dog.

    Yep, I can tell this is your first time. 50 seconds in you're already huffing and puffing, at 10:50 there's seamen. Couldnt handle the blowie conditions at the end. Overall, surprised you made it to 34 minutes. Commendable.

    It's hard to keep sand out of everything at the best of times, when the wind is up it's a complete nightmare. But on the rare days where the wind is down and the ocean is flat it is absolutely magic!

  • @reefnscapes8533
    @reefnscapes8533 6 месяцев назад

    It’s good to see both the typical fire cooking videos as well as the behind the scenes type adventure videos. It’s no fun camping when the winds up, the SAND is soft and it’s a warm day. Certainly have made the most out of a frustrating situation. You’ve had a great few years of fire cooking, the fire ban had to hit you at some point. Really looking forward to the solid fuel fire yes/no explanation video. As you said, it’s not always an easy task trying to determine if you can have a fire. Seems that even within the same rural shire, some localities have stricter rules. Good job mate.

NSW boat rules are 5ho or less you don't need Rego on the boat, 10 knot or less and you don't need a licence. Also here you need ti he wearing a life jacket when ever you are solo in the boat. Different states, different rules just like for your car.
