We often find our boaties have forgotten to bring “this or that”, when they turn up for their boat-hire. Never mind; Brendon and Robyn can usually find something to help them out. I thought I’d write up a list of the most commonly needed things:
Bits and pieces that can usually be borrowed from Bribie Island Boat Charters, when you hire a boat:
Eskies
BBQ tools
Hand-lines, basic tackle kit, landing net, bait board
Fish pliers, knives, hook removers, scalers, burley bucket
Crab-pot hooks, bait bags, floats
Boarding ladder, swim toys, sand toys, beach cricket set, water pistols
Spotto game-sheets
Bird books and fish charts
Rain-pants, jackets, wet-weather phone covers
Balloons, party streamers
Pretty much anything you’ve forgotten to bring and really need.
Things that you can hire:
Fishing rods: $5 each/day
Fish-finders: $10 each/day
Things you can buy:
Bait – good quality, frozen.
Ice – cheap, 5kg bags
Fishing tackle – a big range that covers all of your needs
Crabbing supplies
Sunscreen, insect repellent (including fish-attracting insect-repellent!)
Thongs, hats, sunglasses and great wet-weather jackets at a very cheap price!
Boating spares
Gifts- come in and look at our range of books, mugs, stubby-holders, etc
