will be quick Just got back from beach and misses wants to speak but mates wanna see pics... weather was great first few days up there and then wind squalls and swells turned up bringing less boats to water and more beer in bellies,,,,
Unsure if this has been posted yet but John Gooding had a mishap and ended up landing on beach 2 days ago and yesterday after only 13 boats launched a 6m glass boat rolled over.... and another 6.2m tinny also through a few overboard both supposedly due from a new sandbar forming at south waddy gutter entrance.
Gale force warning given to us last night confirmed we were to leave earlky this morn for a run and we took only 1 hour 40 from champange to Manta ray passing a line up of cars / boats behind sempre ant chards,,, Great week..
Will explain pics when i load em up
few boggings and pics of the boat park before surges
these are shots from return trip home ... people we kow left last night at 930 and it took 4 hours to get to hook to find surges up to the sand walls / dunes and had to run through inland track... after tonights surges it will be worse for sure...
First shot is line up at Chards , 2nd is reason for line up, remaining are the 2nd option way around.... last shot is a clown at the barge trying to head to fraser in a little jap car bogged to its hubs.....
few more boggings....no more other then vids of which i have no idea how to post or YOUTUBE..
Adam,

Yeah was his trailer, Turtle used his winch on his chevy to dry pull it up the beach and then winch it onto trailer using a clip/shackle in addition to someone winding in slack from hand winch on trailer,,,,, ..
Prob confusing what I just wrote.... Johns Cruiser was hooked up to trailer and chevy was beside it...
and some more
the shallow entrance to the gutter, i was hitting bottom all parts of the tide,
note the marker bouy to the gutter
fraser , not for the faint hearted
Well great to be back and dry. Trip was great but I did head off on Wednesday as I couldnt see the weather improving. This year was almost a splitting image of last with all the rain. Never the less managed a good day out and picked up quality fish on the edge of the shelf. Nice to meet a few of the boys up there and a shame it is the last year of the comp.
