Try OZZI CHAINS they have G43 chain and Sydney lifting brings a drum of their chain down from QLD regularly .
Ozzi is very open to specifications I have no connection to them I just live on my yacht and will be buying some.


I will second the sydney lifting chain.👍

In NSW you can rub the bottom clean. You are not allowed to scrape off shell!


Nah osshifer, that's my protection against sharks, not a scraper.😀

Hi All,
I noticed a post dating back to 2023 for North Sea Inflatables (division of Red Dot Technologies Pty Ltd) regarding his inflatable boats. This is a total scam. I ordered a boat in March 2026 and paid in full. They came back with one excuse after another delaying the delivery (raw materials, freight delays, etc.) and dragged it past 120-days when I could claim a credit card chargeback. Then all communication stopped, with phone calls unanswered and emails unanswered. I lodged a complaint with NSW Fair Trading and they could not contact the company either. Do your own research and you will see that other trading companies (Omnipack) under that entity have court winding-up orders against it. They did sell boats at one stage apparently, but it looks like they are now trading insolvently and are scamming people like me, as they know the talk and everything about inflatable boats. Don't be a fool like me and stay well away. It is a SCAM!


thanks for posting your experience with this entity, I was considering them as a replacement for my ageing inflatable but no longer. 👍
