I suspect a replacement reel was sent this morning !

I’ve passed your post onto “someone I know” so let’s see if that helps ! Thanks for that. I've done something similar this morning - got in touch with the distributor - and learned MD are swamped and because it's a cheap reel might not even bother with a return process, just send out a new reel. Bu...

There’s been a few mothership trips that have done it.... some real epic ones as well !

Yep..she’s been a great ride and like Mental has said, I’ve met some (mostly !) great people and experienced some trips and made a lot of memories.... far too many to list on here! Whilst I haven’t been able to do much out of kayak for a couple of years I’ve certainly kept in touch with what’s been ...

Yep... used to be quite a strong club in the Waikato.... if memory serves me right, they would meet up at Canoe & Kayak...

Before the trailer, or when travelling with multiple yak, flat roof racks and tie downs ...don’t use ratchets as you will dent the hull if you get it too tight

Just to add to the discussion.... I’ve got a Reload (& an OK 4.3 !) and I use the front hatch to store broken down rods / reels , fish finder etc etc when I’m doing surf launches / re entries. It can be accessed from the seat as Grant as suggested by just straddling the yak... ie a leg over each...

Welcome back PJay.... mate certainly sounds like you’ve had a few challenges in your life in recent times but glad to hear that you’ve got through it all..

BTW... KFNZ now features on FB as well !

Hi all, with the recent announcements today around how a move to Level 3 will look under the current Covid19 restrictions, there is already a “ground swell” occurring as to whether or not kayak fishing will be permitted. Is a kayak deemed to be a boat ?.... Is a kayak a surf board ? Can I fish 300m ...

Nice...Pt Chev is not a place I’ve fish in the yak or the boat although I hear it can be quite productive

Good on ya !.. yep. ..I think we’re all suffering from withdrawal symptoms of something , so it really comes down to finding something to keep you sane !

Not seen the lanyard before..maybe try AliExpress ?

Nicely set up !

Keep up the great work guys.... people like me who “are removed” from direct contact with healthcare or other essential worker certainly appreciate the efforts you guys and gals are all putting in ! Meanwhile I’ll try and do what I can by staying at home, social distancing and dealing with some moro...

It’s quite likely the wiring...salt water has a bad habit of corroding and killing the wires.... aside from checking the connections and fuse (if you have one) check the wiring all the way up as the corrosion can be well up inside the plastic casing. If you’re not sure, run a couple of dummy wires t...

Looks like a very good deal for someone !

Nice effort !

Sorry Mate, I just desperately wanted this thing. Perhaps someone with the skills will see this and consider manufacturing these things. I couldn't even find anything similar in the US where there are a heck of a lot of old town ad Ocean kayaks floating around. The were designed and made in NZ by a...

Yep... very rare indeed !
Have one in my spare OK Trident 4.3 rig..... wonder how much I could get for it !?
