spaners Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 My top 10 rules for a deckie 1. Must be able to reverse a trailer. 2. Must be able to drive a boat in-case I'm over the limit. 3. Must have a strong back to be able to pull up the anchor in 60 mtr of water. 4. Must be able to cut bait and cube all day long. 5 .Must hand over his rod to the skipper if he hooks a Jew [that's for you Mercer 007] 6. Must hand over his rod when he has to re rig the skippers rod. 7. Must re rig the skippers rod. 8. Must jump in the water to hold the boat at the ramp. 9. Must be able to "gut n fillet" without butchering the catch. 10. Must wash boat and tackle at end of the day to skippers satisfaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
