He has suggested the Preservation area, but he is not a hunter so is taking a random stab, we can live on the boat and he is going to go fishing and craying during the day, while I look for bambi's loud and angry dad! The wife has given permission for prior exploration trips, but some research is needed.

Had the phone call about buying boat being confirmed at 5pm today, and have been jiggling about with the idea ever since, the wife thinks I'm really only 4 cause I can't sit still!

James (our son ) and I were fortunate enough to be invited to stay at Kisbee Lodge in Preservation Inlet. We flew in from Tuatapere with Dale Green.
James finished his last exam at Lincoln on a Monday, we were at the lodge by Tuesday afternoon.
It is a fantastic part of the country, try googling Cromarty Township, there were pubs, schools, banks etc there. Kisbee Lodge is built on surveyed old Cromarty sections. It is unique in that it is a privately owned dwelling in the middle of the DOC estate.
PM me and I can share some info. Big ocean down there. James and I hunted down to Sealers Creek No.1, from the Pysegur Light Oil store. ( Google that) The Inlet was calm but there was a 6m swell running outside!

PM me you cell and email if you want details and some pics.
