What do you mean when you say recalibrate your gps...
I have never heard this term and the only calibrating I know of is the correct Datum being set. Or is this a "technical issue" the wife wont understand and you get to go out fishing if so, I may bneed tocalibrate my GPS early next week.

My GPS is out by about 10 meters not to bad in PPB but have run aground several times in WP, I have to park it next to a recognised mark
= Channel marker and screen shift till its in the right spot.

:-) I am not sure I am comfortable with my **** being anywhere near you shoulders!
Its my anniversary ont he 23rd, so If I do go you will have to give me a bed for amonth a well..
Thanks fo the offer, I am so keen to go its nto funny. But I have spent so much time / money / effort on all things fishing I am restricting myself for self preservation reasons.
You have to go to the mates day on the 16th at pattersons lakes. We can ghost boat and fish the same spot.
