Hi All,
The new toy is nearly ready to get wet, hopefully ready for the weekend.
Just waiting for the motor, guages & electrics to be installed.
A big thanks to all who uses this site as it gave me a wealth of knowledge during the buying process.
And credit to the dealer "Mr T Tinnies". They have delivered on everything they promised.
I only hope I remember to put the bungs in on the first trip
Many Thanks

Nice TonyG,
Have you named her yet ?
Red hot tip ! After you hook up the tralier on the Nissan before a fishing trip put the bungs in ! Oh yeah and don't forget to pull off the flush muffs after flushing the motor they don't like being spat out the back via the prop on the next fishing trip if you forget to

Attention TonyG....Yes double check your bung's...It sounds silly but there are lots of peeps that have done this..As late as sunday my workmate launched his brand spanking new poly into the broadwater and noticed water gathering around his feet...much to his horror he FORGOT to put the bungs in.."too excited" he said, about launching his new toy...he whaled and whistled to his dad to get the f@#kin car and trailer back to the ramp and they hurredly took her out,, grabbed bungs from in the back of the ute and drained her and all then off they went.....no fish either on that first excursion.... but hey thats fishing eh!
By the way your new boat looks a scream!!! go for it dude!!!

With naming the boat, we thought we would try a bit of democracy. (what a silly idea of mine)
With any name that was suggested, all 5 family members (kids included) had to agree to the name, & if one person did not like the name, then we scrap that name & start again.
So after 8 weeks & about 50 names, the boat is still nameless.
Many Thanks

Tony,
Can I ask why you went to alloy after owning a very similar Poly?
Just interested to know the train of thought about that decision.
Regards
Darren
ahh yes, i remember that feeling when you see your new toy when its not quite finished , every day feels like a week, every hour feels like a day, you cannot stop thinking if you have got everything right on your new tub, and its the last thing you think of before you go to sleep..... maybe it was just me...
We also bought our bluefin bowrider from Theo at Mr t's and are very happy with it and his aftersales service.
The boat looks great.....
I took her for her first spin on the weekend.
She is an absolute beauty, The 115 optimax reach about 38 knots. I was wrapped
Many Thanks
TonyG
