They take 3 to 4 to come back to the boil.
Try it.
You're right mate. Depends on how good your cooker is and how quickly it comes back to the boil.
As for the shelling business, have done that for a while now. Guts'n shell into a bag for snapps berley. Usually chuck them from the pot straight into a salt water ice slurry.
I'm off to Gaganis Bros to grab some new jars after all this talk about pickled crab...... 
In fact, downright dangerous and even suicidal if you attempt to head back to the ramp if you get caught out. You're better off sheltering between the islands and riding it out. A lot of ppl get in strife trying to outrun it in small trailer boats. N/W's aren't too bad as long as they are 15-20, you can find shelter inside Point Pearce, inside the Bay. SE's are just plain annoying, especially in my 4.5m tinny, you just have to take ya time and end up getting SOAKED by spray coming over the starboard side.
