G'day all, i've been here for a while but havent got around to introducing myself. I'm from Geelong, Vic. I own a Spearfish 21 centre console/cab. 200hp Yamaha, furuno gps/sounder, custom clears (due to Geelong being a cold-ass place to own a centre-console :D ), with all the other good bits one needs (and doesnt need, but has). I dont use it anywhere near as much as i should/would like to, but thats life i guess.
Over the past few months i have been contemplateing selling it and getting a cat of some sort. But yeah, i like my Spearfish. The only "issues" i have with it are that is a 2-stroke (granted, its alright on fuel for the amount i use it), and the trailer needs break-away brakes. And for the $20-30,000(+) it'll cost me to upgrade them, i was thinkin of tipping it into a new rig. Still very much undecided on that. Either that, or getting another smaller boat for river/lake work. And that'd be a Spearfish 15. Yeah i've read all the posts about the "issues" they have. Yes i still want one cause they look awesome ;D .
Anyway, enough of my ramblings.
Cheers
Ash
