- Thread starter The Goodwins

water skiing to the next "camp site"
only 2 hours in winter mate
3 in summer
hahahaha, we are 2 time zones west of you, not 2 east..............
@The Goodwins , to show what a great fella I am, when you buy that Most Versatile outfit you won't need to do big mods to your place I'll let you park it at my place, plenty of room, can even build a big shed to put it in............
OK I actually think that this last picture means that the "Great Brissie Expanda Shade Sail Storage build" is finally complete. With regard to the shade sail we decided that a good cover suffices in this instance with the engineering being a little on the too difficult side. Thanks to all particularly @bigcol for keeping me going.....
All painted
All painted
That looks OK........all finished no more to do........ever......all finished.........done........is it?
hmmmmm...........
hmmmmm...........
1) I resemble that remark @Drover
2) I think the cover looks better than the shade sail, neat, sweet & petite - a shade sail will always look 1/2 finished........
3) great job Mr @The Goodwins
I do think the last Pic is overkill - your not in your 50's driving an F250 now are you????
plus
there goes the carport completely to fit that monster in
Hmmmmm this definitely has potential........
Whats the ball weight on that ??
Is that a helicopter on top of the boat?
What about the "over"....is he over it or is for sale.
Does it have a deisel heater?

Does it have a deisel heater?
now I'm starting to panic, @The Goodwins buying that, what with your profession.........................
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm????
So revisiting this report as it appears I need to start thinking about a solid cover or shade sails. As the dog ate the van cover, yes the dog ate the cover, I need to have the van under something. so in terms of this report..........
That looks OK........all finished no more to do........ever......all finished.........done........is it?

This may help?
There's a mob at Landsborough called, I think, the Shade Shed. They make those easy aircraft hanger type sheds ...easy to put up, anchored and give good shade and side protection.
We've had one for years and the van sits under it...just. But the protection is good and if you have access problems you just put it up where it's intended.

They call them Dongers over here @bigcol, I think one would take up 2 blocks of land in town.
Shade Shed would be the go but they look a tad Bogan on your front lawn, sink some poles and string some shade sails up, blend in better and they do a good job og keeping sun off, easy to give van a wash too........................the 3 or 5 mt Coolaroo ones at Bunnings are good I have had them last around 8 years or more before the stitching started to fail, the ones I beeswaxed the stitching they were still good at 10 when we left.
