Show & Shine

[Fitzy]

OK folks,
Here's your chance to post up a pic of your boat for all the world to see. Doesn't matter if its a cruiser or a canoe, we'd love to see it.
Just use the new "attach" feature below the text box to post up your pic.
And don't forget to give us a few details about her either.

Mine is called "Tarcoola" (aboriginal for river bend)
She is a custom built 4.9m Sea Jay Barra Masta (built to survey). Centre console with front & rear casting decks, rod locker, twin live-wells, under floor ice box, CD player, 65 lb Minn Kota bow mount, Zercom sounder, Lorenz GPS & plotter. Currently has a 70 HP 4 stroke Evinrude but will be changing over to an 80 HP 4 stroke Yamaha soon.

Cheers,

Fitzy..

Re: Show & Shine

Am sure most have already seen her on the site, and most have overtaken her on a weekend. This is our Roberts Longboat, 21ft, 25HP 2 pot Yamaha diesel. Cruises at 6 knots, downhill, with the tide and wind at her back. A very comfortable cruiser with good overnight facilities. A steal @ $27,000.00.

Re: Show & Shine

brett your boat been watching that invisible man series
too much, re name had a friend who was a graphic artist
and few yeas ago ask him to paint name on boat, when i
came back to get it , heres this enormous name on the
side, he has since reduced to a lot lot smaller, has a 140
suziki on back before yammie, she goes like the clappers
especially when crossing the bay, had her up to 40 on
somerset one day in those nice calm waters. probably run

Re: Show & Shine

Hey Webby,
Is that 40 miles or knots. My current donk (70hp 4 stroke)pulls just over 30 miles/hour with 4 up in it. Ran a 90 2 stroke for a trial & she absolutely hauled then.

Cheers,

Fitz..
