Had a look at the icebox and seems not to have slime/weed growing on it.The water temp is a lot hotter there than here in Carnarvon and we get weed/slime on after 7-14 days and its even quicker in Exmouth.So after 25 days you would expect to see heaps of it???
Would have been interesting to see them have a crap,"excuse me can you go outside to do that I'm eating my seagull"
One thing though. Eskies are easier to come by. I was told there was no 406s available in Oz and there is a 60,000 waiting list. Anyone heard the same?

Cheers John
Hmm, sounds like the guy that told me might be off track then. Interestingly, the BCF down Albany have run out.
Glad I bought one earlier.
At around $400 I take it that was the GMC base model John - the manually activated one?
