Thread: Stockton Beach

Just make sure it's not the weekend of the 18th/19th pleeeeease.

Why were you on the beach for a few hours ?
Small drive & you got stuck ??

Hahahaha no... the disco cant get stuck on the beach... not like a rangie would


I took a mate out for a drive, trying to sell him on the idea of buying himself a 4wd - possibly a disco or rangie. It was another great day out on the beach, very little traffic, saw 2 other trucks out there, and the lagoon is still full up over the section we normally park on!

Gday Mick,

My mate will come along with his ford territory.... he's on the beach up there all the time, get's stuck from time to time because of clearance but the terry has heaps of power so should be alright for most part...... If we go off and do stuff he can't do, he'll probably go for a surf.

We'll have our 3 and 4 year old daughters.

So if first day is pretty tame, I'll also try and convince my wife to come along with our 6 month old daughter...

Second day, I'll try and get out to the forest... just depends on the family.

Hopefully my wife can take the terry and my mate will jump in with me for the day.

Cheers,
Scott

Hi Scott,
I will add him to the list, Sounds all good, with the sunday stuff i doubt the territory would do some of the tracks from the lack of clearance, but we have taken an X-Trail down alot of them!!

I have actualy recovered a few territories out on the dunes before, the traction control they have doesnt seem to like the beach much

Mick.

Thanks Mick... call him Terry... he'll only do the dunes on the first day... he's too scared to take it to the bush

Haven't been on Stockton for about 3 years.
Woo Hoo - I'm in.

Then checked the calendar.
Whale watch tour.
I'm out

Hi guys if its the weekend of the 16th-17th i am definitely out, doesnt matter there is always next time.

I will be there on the 6th november for LROC driver training. But from then on the only weekend i have booked out is the weekend at bryces on the first weekend of december.

I reckon we could organise a watagans/stockton weekend some time over the xmas school hols maybe make it an extended thing or something, we can organise that closer to the time. Matt

Well its a shame you guys cant make it along, We will definetly have to organise another trip, When its a bit warmer, we could spend the full weekend on the beach and if anyone wants to do some surfing, swimming or fishing they will have there chance. maybe sometime towards the end of November or start of December?


And for those who are coming along on this trip, here are a few pics from an area in the wallaroo state forest, its an old quary with a large water crossing and some very nice rock faces to test your truck on, i did a few of these in the disco yesterday, some where to much for my truck though.

This is a video of Me and my mate Brad crossing the water
