To pick a winner in the Epic Safety Tips thread competition I made life easy on myself by putting a bunch of names into a hat and the first name drawn would be declared winner, which just so happened to be Rollerboy. Congradutions mate, you now own an MTI Riptide Type 2 kayaking PFD, as well as a packet of Ikado 102 rubber squid jigs and the new Rapala Mini Charge and Glow. Thanks to Rapala and Maclean Outdoors for supplying the prizes. I'll be in touch via PM to get a delivery address from you.

Although the draw was randomly picked, I was pleased to note that his tip was a good one and simple as it is, is well worth repeating. It was:
Keep emergency gear in dry bags, have a snack that is high in energy and become familiarly and confident in using the emergency equipment you have as there is no time for this in an emergency.

Bream Reaper!

Today is the day where we announce the winner of the "Name Dunebuggy's PA" competition. We had some very imaginative entries and it was difficult to pick a winner. Quite a few tickled my fancy and a couple of entries had me wishing I had another kayak to name. That could be on the cards too. So, who is the winner? Well, it was a tough choice and very close between a couple of entries but in the finish, it came down to a choice between "Bream Reaper" and "Driftwood" but my congratulations must go to yakass member "possum" for her entry of "Bream Reaper" . Thanks to everyone who entered and helped to solve my dilema. The "Bream Reaper" will be adorned with it's new name soon.
Congratulations possum. Josh will be in touch with you shortly to arrange your prize.

Ever wanted to design a lure pattern… and actually have it manufactured? Well now is your chance! To celebrate reaching over 30,000 Facebook fans, Rapala VMC Australia has launched a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for one lucky fan to have their ideas manufactured by the international Rapala lure factory; the same factory that has been manufacturing Rapala lures since 1936. There are some great prizes on offer!
