14ft thats amazing, thats as big as a great white. Once me and my uncle and cousin were out on a little tinnny of a couple of ks off the Western Australian coast, we had the anchor down and we were berlying the water hard out, me uncles a butcher so we were chucking in buckets and buckets of meat slurry, fish heads and oil into the water after half an hour a huge great white at least 6m long and probly 1.5m/2m or more wide came and bit our tiny motor (sharks are attracted to the electrical signals or some $hit) We started pulling in the anchor as fast as we could as this shark was circling the tiny boat. We got the motor started but the boat was going at like 1km an hour because the prop was f*cked by its jaws. It swam around the general area for about 15 mins then f*cked off. It was the scariest thing thats ever happened to me i reckon. We had to call the coastcard and get a tow. The next day a guy on a surf ski was taken of cottosloe beach and blead to death. We all felt a bit guilty we didnt tell the shark patrol or anything or they might have spotted it.

yea watto that would of scared the hit out me in a hurry. You would of had to clean the boat. Sturgeon don't have teeth just what they call grinders down theie mouth aways. I've had my arm 8 to 10 icnhes down their throat when they deep swallow a hook and the grinders will give you some red marks. But definately no teeth. I would kill just to see a Great White!Merry Christmas. Check out the link it is a 8 1/2 foot my partner helped me with. we used the spud gun to launch the bait on this one. Its about 3 in the morning so not the best picture in the world

I don't know about he being back in form.....he got a duck last innings and he's got 100's before while he's been out of form, For New Zealand's sake lets hope he's not as we're versing you guys in the Chappel(sp?)-Hadlee ODI tour soon. BTW I think Hussey's average is closer to 100 then that,pity he's old as its taken him a while to get into the aussie side.

Well they think its cool but just don't try to explain how it works to them then they get confused. But they do think I'm weird because I'm gonna be making bp with some of that and they think if you like have a little pile of it you could blow up a house.

yeah, when I show people how the piston valve works, they get confused. what really pisses me off is when people refuse to believe I built the swat from scratch, and that I bought a "kit" or "plans"!! :evil: :x
