Re: Aussie OffShore members
Cheers and thanks for the welcome GlassDave.
When you are out it's always great...I been passively browsing for a few weeks now and have been getting loads of info.
I would like to get a Scarab 34 (III), just deciding on associated costs / running costs etc, real hard to get an answer from owners trying to sell as the $$ are a bit fudged.
Any examples of average yearly costs would be great

Hi Gotime34,
I cannot PM as i am a tighta$$ with standard membership,
Would like to know / learn more about your boat, engines, drives,etc . The types of mods you have done, if you ever considered bolting on a whipple etc,
Living issues with the interior and how well the accomodation holds up for 1 or more nights stay.
Appreciate info and will probably have to upgrade to look at piccies etc.
Thanks

Re: Aussie OffShore members
One of my girlfriends and I will be in Sydney during two weeks Christmas to right after New Years; are you near there? If so, what can you recommend for New Years Eve plans? We've looked into Charter Boat Companies for a Harbor Party, but wanted to make sure that was the best for our money. We're staying in Cronulla.

Re: Aussie OffShore members
Hi,
If you can get anywhere near the harbour on NYE then it is well worth it. I grew up near Cronulla, it is about 1+ hour by train to the city. As with anywhere the charter boat prices are well inflated for NYE and i would suggest that they would be all, or close to being booked out.
Party wise there is plenty to do, just depends on your flavour

Thank you for the information. Looks like we'll try to do the NYE Harbor cruise if still available. If not, I'm sure we can find other "trouble" to get into elsewhere.
