    Mate,
    looks awesome I'm sure it will be the ducks guts.

    From memory you were towing this North, did you pass through Towsville on Thursday morning around 10am by any chance?

    I saw a Nissan Patrol towing a boat that looked like this on that day. The comment at the time was "ooohhhh that's a nice boat".

    cheers, Evan

    Cool, hope it is windy! good choice in purchasing a 6m craft, long enough to stradle that never ending 2 foot chop!

    One day I will race you to the Green Is wreck, although I want a 20 minute head start or it will be no fun

    Good luck in the testing.

    cheers fnq

    Re: new boat preview

    took the tub for its first run, 4 PPL and a belly full of fuel topped out at 52mph @5750rpm, have to change the prop, im running a 19p laser11, will be swaping it for a Enertia 19p or 20p to get the revs up to about 6300, also lifted the motor up 1 hole, these Verados are some pice of machinary, the boat was like a dream 15-20knts and 3f chop so very happy, still have to do a bit more wireing and a basic tidy up now than its complete

    Daz that's too fast! where is the punishment going for a fish on the reef will be like poping down the corner store for some milk in the saab!!

    Sounds great and glad the fisrt run was (I suspect) better than what you expected.

    cheers fnq
