    Wanted - Tractor to hire - Minnie Water

    From Fri 24th Aug for a week. Beer or cash currency happily paid

    Have a 4.4m Quintrex Hornet wanting to beach launch in the lagoon - unfortunately although my X8 crewman is all wheel drive, it really doesnt lend itself to this job.

    If anyone can help or knows anyone I can contact who might be willing to hire us their tractor to put in & out would be great

    Thanks
    Cindy

    Cindy, I have only been to minnie once a year or so back and used the lagoon there with my rig for a few days. When I was there it was as hard as a rock and most normally like that I was told by the locals. If you do no good on the tractor and given the size of your boat I reacon you would get away with just running it back on the jockey and pulling out with a bit of rope either on the trailer or just snig boat out on the sand and dry load it. My experience was its more like a boat ramp than a beach. Just avoid the spots where the soaks run out, bit soft there.
