    Recommendations please for live aboard hunting,diving and fishing trips to Fiordland

    HI GUYS,

    I am looking at organising a trip to Fiordland looking for recommendations of live aboard boats that cater for fishing diving & hunting trips.

    Any information you have would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    I remember a thread on this forum on a trip like that from a couple of years back. Maybe search using Fiordland.
    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

    Possibly. It would depend on timing and cost.

    You will only have to pay for you and I, and our flights. Mohawk can pay for his own.

    mohawk 660 I'll ask Grant as he and his mates went on one last year. Had a ball - Shot, dived and had a great time for a week. Sent boxes of crays home. From Te Anau I'll get onto him before he goes to worlds in Portugal and get the details for you.

    Ok - Messaged Grant and he came back with the name ofd the outfit they used and had a brilliant time (they have another trip booked for 2017 also)

    :: Genesis Fishing Charters - Fishing, Hunting, Diving - Fiordland, West Coast and Marlborough

    A 73 footer live on board they put them off to Hunt / fish / dive from had tenders they could go off and do their thing and looked after them magnificently...
    @Barefoot - I think that's a nice pressy @Rushys organised for you
