G'day Greg,
I reckon we should have a full boat by now , can you confirm, all thats needed to do is pay the amount, and see if the weather will be good for that day.
If the weather is against us and the skipper pulls the pin, what is the option, refund or place towards another date?
Cheers, Peter
Paul and Craig,
Its an open invite..which is why I posted it here. Skipper Doug was consulted (drafted) by me to provide a charter for the Ausfish crew.
The way I organised the last charter was 1) when full crew was confirmed I pm'd all with my bank account details so that money could be put into my account (set up for this purpose) with reference being your Ausfish username. 2) I confirmed with skipper at midday the day before the trip that weather forecast was favourable and if so I drew a bank cheque for trip. 3) if trip was canned because of weather...money is either refunded back to you, or we rebook for another weekend - your option.
These guys are safety first all the way...with the comfort and enjoyment of the punters their first priority. I have fished with Wazza (owner of Firebird) and Doug (skipper of Firebird) In a few boats Wazza owned (non charter - but serious gamefishing/comp fishing) and even when they were in it for the fun of it...they were only ever worried about making sure the people they had on board enjoyed themselves...and this has carried through to the Charter operation.
The only thing gauranteed on this trip is that they will work their butts off to make sure we enjoy our trip and catch some fish....plus a few laughs along the way.
Greg

Yeah Peter......looking forward to putting a few fillets in the fridge. There must be a couple of Ausfishers out there who would enjoy this charter.

My Humble apologies guys. Had a phone call from Wazza (owner of Firebird) today. He has just got back from a couple of weeks overseas and told me he had already taken bookings for the days we were after (Dougie didnt know about them). The next available dates are 30th and 31st Oct.
I am a goer for the 30th, but I will understand if you arent.
Please indicate if you are still interested.
Once again apologies for the stuff up.
Cheers
Greg
Hi Greg ,
Doooooh .
Not to worry it will probably be blowing on both the previous dates .
I'm Ok for a rebooking for Sat 30th .
Also a week after the full moon so still pretty good moon phase .
Thanks
Peter
Searaider 2
Funny you should say that Pete...Wazza said pretty much the same thing lol. One of the guys he was fishing with (Claude) in New Caledonia is a bit of a weather guru and he is predicting a very windy summer season due to the La Nina we are going in to. Predicting some serious cyclones this coming season.
Ok - so thats 2 of us for the 30th.
Greg
Heys guys I'm still keen. Those dates are good with me
Paul
