Hey, a while ago a member here shared details of a decent size lithium battery, Chinese, that they got at a decent price but somehow I have lost the details, buggered if I know how, but I would like to reconnect and gather the details if possible. Would value any info if anyone can let me know, thanks.

MSN, I'm shocked, surely you know that by he year 2000 circular quay will be awash, much of the eastern seaboard will be submerged etc etc all from rising sea levels due entirely from climate change.
So sayeth the climate scientists, all heil the experts. 😀😀😀😂

Time has come to replace anchor & chain. I'm reasonably sure I'll go with the excell #5 anchor. The quiz is chain size, originally issue was 30mm of 10mm, which weighs 69kg, 45m of 8mm weighs 68kg, I have both 10mm &8mm Gypsy's, the 8mm is $130 cheaper, either way a 14mm top rode will be onboard. Thoughts about 10mm v 8mm ?


Hi, I would go 8mm high test galvanised, readily available from Sydney lifting located at Mount Kuring-Gai NSW 2080. I have used them and it was an easy experience. 👍

Thanks guys. That's a good rough starting point.... Anyone know if it's cheaper outside of Sydney harbour?



Our experience is that www.endeavourboatshed.com.au at BBYC Kogarah Bay is more cost effective than anyone in the harbour. They do good work.


Will second that.

The mad monk has been described as fundamentally ignorant over his suggestion that Australia is weak for not joining trumps " war", who would have thunk it.

Or... let us know if a problem, so we can tweak! 😅
