  1. You can definitely buy rods and tackle at the show and take them home with you
  2. try and find a quieter ramp. Even if you have to drive further
  3. I do mate. Cant seem to message you. Send me one so i can try to reply or on messenger BJ Halloran
  4. Yes mate i had an 80-60" on my old boat and if out in a bit of swell and i was solo fishing from the back of the boat even with the 60" shaft the prop would start to cavitate. I put an 80-72" on my current boat for that reason. For your 410 Polycraft the 54" would be fine but for the 470 above a 12v 55lb would just do the job but for a little more money (not a lot) the 60" shaft would be a must especially for fishing offshore. Problem may be his windscreen though...
  5. Hi mate i sell both Minn Kota and motorguides. For your boat you would want a 60" shaft especially if fishing offshore
  6. yes just outside the harbour i think
  7. there was one caught over the weekend on another internet page
  8. yes they will do fine mate, i prefer the natural colours and the 3.0 size is perfect
  9. yes saw on another site its still in the bay
  10. I launch a 5.3m side console by myself all the time and i only have use of 1 arm! I do have a ladder on the front of my trailer and being a side console i can walk right up the front and climb down the ladder. I also have a boat catch so i drive the boat straight up and then climb down the ladder. Easy Pezy 🤣 with the correct set up that is...
  11. they do get the off the piers but they also get the proper arrows mate which arent Loligo squid
  12. i think you will find they are Loligo squid not arrows although similar
  13. Far better of with a Minn Kota or Motor guide in my opinion
  14. i think its pretty much only Hobie that have a kayak display at Sydney boat show
  15. Nice session mate, in deeper water do you just run the ball sinker all the way down to the jig or do you use a swivel? I mainly squid in 4-6m but keen to try some deeper water when the new boat arrives...
  16. None of the transom mount electric motors have the GPS feature like anchor mode/spot lock and that is what most people want them for. Im assuming you are talking about fitting a transom mount electric to the stern?
  17. You mean Lakewood reserve on the wonny? If so its not the other side of the river, its a totally different system
  18. Dunc 333 from the layout map i have seen the exhibitor stand sizes look just like any other year mate so im not too sure what your saying is correct
  19. As an exhibitor i can confirm it is going ahead
  20. definitely go the 72" mate. I have a Horizon 5.3m on order and im putting a Motor Guide 80 - 72" shaft on that. My older 485 Horizon had a 60" shaft because 7 years ago when i bought it there was no 72" shaft available. If outside with the 60" i could often here the prop begin to cavitate so im definitely running a 72" shaft on my slightly larger boat when it arrives. Good luck getting one though as they are pretty scarce at the moment!!!
  21. the newer motors are not stamped with year models anymore
  22. All that says to me is its a Mercury 9.9hp electric start and H for tiller handle
  23. Mercury do the 20hp with power tilt and trim but the 15hp is only available with electric start not power tilt/trim. Strange as they use the same block for both engines.
