Well,
Finally it had to happen, I couldnt take any longer so I went and got a new tinnie. I blame all you guys in Ausfish who have taken me or Bec out fishing or cruising, and all you guys who post those fishing reports. ;D
It drove me nuts which of course drove Bec nuts, anyway its finally in the garage, a Sea Jay Territory 4.55 with a Yamie 4 stroke 50 hanging of the end. Deckie's advice to get a motor support already would of come in handy on the way back home, stopped into the pub to get some beers and promptly drove over the corner gutter, ::) the boys having a beer just shook their heads. Anyway a few pics
cheers

Nice boat mate,, as you say its nice to go out fishing or cruising with some one but to have your own is just so much sweeter, myself i have only had my own for twelve months and have not looked back, as for fitting it out this is each to his own, i have seen some tinnies smaller than mine with more stuff in it than a boating accessory shop, hope it doesnt take to long to christen it with some good fish,
Happy boating,,,,,,

Ill be heading out from Viccie Point, so i reckon from Peel down to the Pin mainly, with the leccie now I have it, might have to try a dam sometime, I didnt plan on the Leccie originally but it was part of the deal, the boat has a couple of hours on it, was setup for some mag reviews, as for anymore fitout, I reckon Ill use a bit then see what I need. Hope to be out this weekend;D
cheers

The first outing will be just me and Bec mucking around a bit, lucky that she likes to fish so well get some of that in too.

Well how would you be?
Who do we blame for this? Poodroo for giving you a run a few weekends ago? Bec must have someone to blame::) :P
You will be very happy with that! Hope to see you on the water sometime, I'll just look for the big pearly whites of your smile, don't need a radio to spot you I reckon. 1 or two K's will still be able to spot you!!;D
Well done.

Well done Mike, flash looking bit of gear, we might have to take your boat to the R&M;D
That thing will absolutely fly with that 50 on it, you may even give that rocket of Poodroo's a run for its money.
You have got your voucher to kick you off for the fitout, let the fun begin!!!!
Look forward to seeing your fishing reports now.
Cheers Mate

Nice looking ship brother!!!! Should be brilliant in the estuaries, and very stable with those big reversed chines. I can see many hours of fun coming up.

Well Bec and I took it out today for a bit of a run and made sure everything worked, boat handled well, motor zipped along, worked out the gps, worst thing was running in motor , already have polished the prop, got that out of the way early ;D Next thing is to get stuck into some fish,
Deckie , yep it does fly with a 50 on the back but i reckon Poodroo runs light ;D anyway talk to you this week about Mud, didnt get a lot of fishing in today as Bec's got the flu, maybe tommorrow ? anyway attached a pic , one of the reasons I wanted a boat apart from fish, no one is ringing you, just this view.
cheers
