Hi Stuart I use black Micron extra with biolux which seems to keep the bottom very clean even of weed and sludge (no affiliation with these guys). It is a high...
I use the Micron extra too. Seems to be good so far. 2 coats 11 months. I pull up on the beach a lot so the antifoul on the pointy ends of the floats gets worn...
Same problem with wear on the keel and I was thinking a small tin of something like that copper epoxy stuff may be the go for these high abrasion areas......

Hi, I am a new member and new owner of a tt680. Wondering if there are any members on QLD's Sunshine Coast firstly, and secondly if they would be willing to...

Hi Michael, I live at Mount Coolum on the Sunshine Coast. I have a TT720 currently on trailer at Glenwood north of Gympie. How long have you had the 680?...
Hi Russell, I am at Sunshine Beach. I bought the boat a week ago, and am a bit daunted regarding the setup, am going to try this Saturday. It is on the trailer...
Hi Michael, I was briefly behind a Trailertri last friday evening going up the motorway towards Noosa. On Saturday I noticed a TT in the storage facility near...
Russell, Hi, I'm a Tramp owner and am spending two weeks over Christmas at Maroochydore (15th Dec to 30 Dec). Can you advise me of a good place to put my boat...

Hi Daniel, Mooloolaba is the best place to launch your Tramp to get out into the Ocean. There are 2 Ramps One on the Mooloolaba side and One on the Kawana...
Wish you all the best Michael. It all gets much simpler after time. I am also interested to know if Lake Cootharaba is deep enough for a Tri. We often go...
Lake Cootharaba is semi-tidal in the way that phases of the moon and rainfall help it oscillate with varying period and amplitude in ways that mere sailors can...
OK, Thanks for the offers of help Russell and Peter, and thew advice re Cootharaba. I might play it safe this weekend and just try to put in somewhere on the...
tiller pilots; nothing to report. I sail often by myself and can see that fitting a tiller pilot would be a hoot. Not when steering around waves but in...

I have forgotten what the problems with that boat were. They have started it low this time so maybe they have realised they aren't going to get $9k for it. As...
Have a look through the archives. I had a look the rot in the boat was substantial, it was waterlogged and half finished. might even say it was only suitable...
Thanks. I looked back but couldn't find much, just one post. So you think it's not worth even $5k ? I'd love to buy a nice one and have the $ but finding one...
Russell, Thanks for the response. We're actually going back to Brisbane on December 30th so will miss your arrival back on the Sunshine Coast (Australia). ...
The boat has made it to $3,550 but hasn't met reserve. That's probably what it is worth in it's current location/condition. If it was in someone's back yard...
G'Day Damian, I reckon the most important thing is to be patient. If you can't find the right boat for you, it may cost you more in repair work. If it has ...
It just ended, reached over $5k and still not hit reserve. Yeah, I take your point. I am not going to just go out and buy anything. I know too well what a...
