Due to the success cruise we had at the Wiseman Ferry, this is going to be the start of 2011 year cruise. We decided to have this activity at Cordeaux dam which could easy fit 200+ cars and a great cruise location for meets and eat. It's a nice area for photoshoots and deciding to have BBQ there.

Any members have suggestions or ideas about this cruise please feel free to have your say here, your ideas would be very much appreciated. I'll leave the premeets up to you guys to suggest.

If you have CB radio please bring it on the day for better communications. Channels will be noticed on the day.

- Try to be at your best behaviour on the roads guys, last thing we hate to see is getting pulled over. (optional)

Notes:

-Car ride height recommended above iphone height

-BBQ so obviously $ (optional)

-Insect repellant (Recommended/optional)

-Please fill tank before meet

-bottle drinks in car

-CB Radio , to some people dont know what CB is, Walkie Talkie. very convenient

that is all.

Thanks members.

(ps. Wiseman Ferry Cruise photos will be finish soon please be patience till its completed) also thanks to the members who contributed photos.)

It's actually in a nice setting. :yes:

The approach is off Picton Rd (connecting Picton/Wilton to Wollongong) with a bit of a canyon feel to it near the dam wall (as I recall).

I organised an observation cruise to the Cordeaux would you believe 44 yrs ago! Haha.... I was only 17 then (& treasurer of a tennis organisation based at White City).

I just want to say jizzles isn't a cop and the last cruise he organised on ns.com was a big success, he even had maps printed off so people would know where to go. No cop trouble at all and everyone was well behaved.

I highly recommend anyone that can make it to come along

cheers Jonny

(BTW jizzles its SDEWYZ of ns.com)

Can we get some Google Maps happening? Not sure where the first location is.

Also, try and work on figuring out some times; eg. meet at meeting location at x, leave at y on the dot, get to dam at z.

That way if I feel lazy I can just meet you guys there :P

edit:

i assume this is the meet? that carpark?

.....as for the destination... i'm ashamed to admit, but my google maps power has failed me :(

sorry thats not the road. the map is not updated. if you follow onto forshore road (left) there is a dry land dotted, which is now a boat ramp that cannot be missed! their is intersection lights and you will definitely see it.

    • interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to. 
    • I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD
    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
    • Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.
