The New Boat

[bulldogs7]

Hi Wags

what would you recommend i've put extra chains on the front of trailer to hold boat down during travel
but for security i thought insurance was the best thing i could do because if i just padlock a chain that pretty easy and quite to cut with bolt cutters,is there any thing else like maybe Steel wire rope locks ???

brother inlaw just had his 7m center cab knock off by some dirty thief
thanks

Nice boat Scott. Have you thought about a couple of extra safety chains? (added safety/security)

Cheers,
Wags

bulldog, you should get awsome economy out of that 115. We do a bit of water ski/ wakebaording when its to blowy to get out the reef so i put the 150 yammy foustroke on the back. Still pretty stoked with the economy from it.

Nice one Bulldog. I especially like the navy stripes. A word of warning though. I have those navy stripes on mine and you need to really show some love at the ramps as scratches in that stuff stick out like the proverbial. I had a mate hold mine at Viccy point ramp while I got the car and when I came back it was just riding up and down against the ramp with my mate yakking to another boat. Scratched the crap out of it and it dont come out. A good set of fenders and lots of love.
Happy Yaltaring.

Yeah I think I was researching along the lines that you were too lol... but it keeps coming back to the yalta.

Only thing now is to decide on the extras & motor, I know how quick that adds up. I dont know what motor to get as I am used to the optimax and I like the fuel saving I get with it but they only do Yamaha.

They have to have a look at my boat yet to see what trade they will give so that is a big deciding factor too as if its to low then the deal wont work. I have a couple of back up boats if the trade in is to low so will have to see.
