Ah yes but now you have it and it looks sweet.

If you want a B.O.A.T. then you'll need sub26ft on a trailer, and even then.........

In the end it's all Bucks. $1000 = 1 'Boat Buck'. Your windlass cost 3 boat bucks. Some times you are actually lucky enough to do a job on a boat and it cost less than 1 boat buck. So next time the wife says "What did that cost love", you can say "Just a couple of bucks dear"

I'm using metric Vietnamese Dongs on my B.O.A.T even I dont know what Ive spent


And Instead of a condo rates and management fees South Ace which you have to pay annually the $3 b.o.a.t would not even covers those rates. So you are well a head
Now can I repair your old Windlass??

Don't let anyone see your anchor Southace, they might get all excited!!

South Australian anchor. What are you going to use in NSW waters?

Obviously the correct answer was that when in NSW you would use a NSW anchor if you are using a SA anchor in SA.

I don't believe that are any regulations regarding the type of anchor you use, excepting maybe some environmentally sensitive areas.

My comment about using a NSW anchor was more directed at Ramona's comment as it almost (but not quite) inferred that an anchor made in SA would not work in NSW

It would not work in the river here. Clear sand and strong tide, not enough blade area. One of the spade type modern anchors is the go. The Marsh is meant for ribbon weed.

If your not short of a quid go for an Ultra {or make one}.

Wow? Plough/cqr the minimum around here. You learn something new every day!

No bait the shark 5mtr followed it up on retrieval from 30mtrs just as it got to the surface the shark took the whole anchor in its mouth! It peeled some chain off the gypsy and got me fairly wet!

The only problem I encounted with the Supreme is that the stock is flat bar as opposed to the March which is rod so it only comes over the roller upright .......the March can be brought up from the cockpit remote and no need to go forward.
