![]() How's the fishing in Perth? We've been planning to move there for the past 10 years 😂 |
![]() MB - unfortunately it just wasn't being used. I bought it new in 2007 as a toy for my retirement. For the first 4 or 5 years I would tow it up to Exmouth (1,250km north of Perth) for three weeks or so each year and fish with the wife and other family. I was unable to keep the boat at my home address in Perth and therefore it had to be stored elsewhere where access was by appointment only. This just made it difficult and when I did use it, I would park it on my verge 2 or 3 days each side of going fishing. Add to this a serial complainer in the street and I would have the local council knocking on my door within 24 hours of the boat being on the verge telling me I had to move it. I just became too hard!!! The last 4 years I think I put less then 40 hours on the motors. |
![]() Hi FA I also am in Perth and have to agree with you about the new Regs, it is a "Dog's Breakfast" The "shinny pants' have no idea on fish stocks. We have to adjust or fish outside the Zones they have set like Shark Bay and Exmouth. just a pain. I am a bit like you, have a boat since 2014 and that has only seen 65 hours, not like when I was in NZ. DD |
