Is there anywhere NOR (Perth) where I can buy a fin screw & plate? I'm near Joondalup & can't be ar$sed going down to Nedlands. Would Bunnings sell anything??

Bunnings Joondalup would have bucketloads of em. Just ask one of the helpful staff. The greeting person at the entrance would know for sure.[}:)]

Hey just for fun go into Bunnings and ask if they sell vernier calipers

Or a M6 Tap - or a 1/4 UNF tap and see if they direct you to plumbing (duh)

Retards

No they won't have anything stainless in such sizes, Zed. You may get it at a fixings joint, Blackwoods etc perhaps?

Zed, down at the sail shop on the marina will have the stainless hardware they are R/H side near the sea scouts. Or the big boat shop up on corner Wanneroo and Whitfords have a good selection.

No Zed be really brave get out of your comfort zone...broaden your horizons....I know its hard ..I live in Freo and its like cossing the Nullabor if I need to get something from osborne Park...let alone go to Joondulup..will i need to stay overnite ?

As for going to Bunnings...I know its scary....all the people that go there seem to like queing up for hours at cash registers...I think its to fill in their day..scary when you know exactly what you want and just want to get in and get out...and least they don't force you to move in one direction like Ikea....

Ahh but all the winter wave spots are SOR
easterlies in summer = river sailing and you northsiders can't get a sesh in b4 work (check out Hardie's 17 days in Jan or whatever it was - how many did the NOR crew get )
And all the windsurf shops are SOR bar two - and they are only 1km NOR !!
And summer wave spots are not too far if SOR so it doesn't outweigh the advantages above
