Oh yes! I'm an X commercial fisherman as a kid and worked on a biological research ship for 5 years. Spent 9 years in the North Pacific. Love dragging a hook sipping on a couple of cold one's. I'm really busy at the moment building the house but I'm sure I could find time! Please drop me a line when your heading ocean side. :cheers: :thumb:

Me too (Building a house )
That's why I keep asking dumb questions about land fill and labor costs! :shock:

The boats in Patts at the moment so it will have to stay there until I've more time to sort it out!

I had a look at Barry's (Mermaid ) set up and it's really nice.
He's building a new slipway and pontoons and he offers a reasonable package including 24hour security , boat cleaning, maintenance facilities and storage.
The river there is just so nice . He even took me on a little waterside look see on his run about including a look at the fishermen's red light district!
If anyone is thinking of using a boat here it's well worth a look!

Thanks very much for the kind words, Swanks.

Our expansion work should be fully completed within the next 2 months, though we do have a couple of moorings ready at the moment.

We now also have some boats for sale.

If anybody's interested you can find them in Classifieds (Business and General headings) at the bottom of the HHAD home page.

Any if anyone wants to drop by for a look and a chat, you're very welcome - just give us a call and there'll be a cold one waiting in the fridge.
