Hey guys ....me and lucas were talking about a habour ride from birkenhead one day this weekend....will update
Will be up in Auckland Sat arvo (or Sat morning if surf is no good).. Flat water is kinda gay... But let me know via text I might tow up!
....that boat ramp at birkenhead http://www.dalusionfwx.co.nz/auckland_habour.html i think lucas was thinkin sunday .....but what are people keen for?
i can do sunday. hey knoxie if you get that bracket done in time could you bring that chinpad with you
They chase you in their inflatable and tell you its a 5 knot zone in the whole of the auckland harbour and if your ski is registered. If you stay to the Birkinhead side of the Bridge you should be sweet and jump the boat wakes from the launches coming from west harbour but all tthe descent wakes come from boats and ferrys out from west haven heading towards Rangi.
Im a keen bean, Ill try and get a few other mates along as well. Sat arvo or sunday sounds good to me.
Far out, you are right....actually, it looks like its 12 knots :-( Heres the arc pdf showing where it applies. http://www.arc.govt.nz/albany/fms/main/ ... 20Zone.pdf
Well that sucks, Can they give you a fine for an unregistered ski? Most of my freinds reckn they cant legaly give you a fine and that its bull shit...? Sat looks good for me, sundays probly out for me.
They can give you a fine, Just ask rick he got one sometime last year They usually just give you the papers and tell you to fill them in when you get back home. I think you would have to catch one of the officers on a bad day for them to give you a fine.....
most used excuses are as follow: *Im on holiday and live south of the waikato region *I have just got the ski and havnt yet had the chance to fill out the forms *I didn't realise it was neccessary for them to be registered all work rather well apparently
Mite have to make-up some numbers for my ski :lol: weathers looking bit nicer for sunday at this stage.....
Supercross is on saturday so hopefully if I get a chance to my ski back together il be good for sunday. If there are heaps of people riding it should reduce the chance of being the dude that gets the fine from the cops when we all scramble!
