    Our winch rope on a 2 year old Surtees has broken at least half a dozen times, and a Surtees weighs a fraction of a Haines Hunter. But it's always strapped down plus a chain/d shackle

    Had this a while back.
    Little rain and a little wind and because all the trees are planted full grown they only have a very shallow root system.

    There was actually a smaller tree that fell on a young girl and put her in a coma for a couple months.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    It is surprising how many boats you see only held to the trailer by the winch rope and maybe a safety chain with nothing tieing the boat to the trailer tho.

    not mine, I have seen a 6. something surtees on the ramp here at Nelson off the trailer but still attached to the winch with car and trailer further up the ramp. No safety chain and rachet failure on winch. Looked nasty really felt for the guy who owned it. No one needs that

    Visiting Auckland for the weekend, driving on the motorway and I hear one hell of a bang rattle and squeal. I start looking around with a wtf was that look on my face, to see that the truck moving a digger in the lane next to me (and 1 car back) was a little too high for the bridge. He made it through but trimmed some concrete off the underside of the bridge.
