  2. Well done on the fish mate, ive been fishing for years and come home empty handed many a time. Doesnt matter though its just great being out there.

    Once you get your first boat you'll never look back. When i got my first boat it was a s@#$ heap and i ended up rowing back the first 3 times. Slowly upgrading my boats from time to time gaining confidence and experience. Im on my 4th boat now!!

    cheers

  3. Yeah bring it on!

    I live a couple of minutes from Roseville ramp and intend on giving the tinnie a good work out chasing MH kingies this season. I have a 3.75m quintrex Dart with a 20HP. Seats and floor with plenty of rod holders. I am gonna put in a basic fishfinder shortly. This little tinnie moves along pretty good for its size.

    Trailer is getting fixed up tomorrow and the freezer has some freshly caught and snapped squid.

    I am gonna concentrate for them during the week days this year as it seems over the last two years that my local MH spots are getting pretty crowded on the weekends.

    Any other local week day kingie fanatic who is boatless and can tolerate me smoking should give us a PM.

    I will be back on the water from next week. Hope to see Dan and Greg on the water this season. I am sure ive seen your boat around.

    Cheers

  4. Hello all,

    I was wondering if anyone new where I could get a cheap or 2nd hand boat trailer?

    My trailer is fairly rusty and needs a little work. Id be better off trying to trade this on the purchase of a new one if its possible. So if anyones knows anywhere good to go some advice it would be much appreicated.

    My boat is a 4.66m Aluminium Dehaviland.

    Cheers

  5. well done tiger shark.

    I have done the hook in the finger trick yet. Ive done most other boating mishaps likes forgetting the bung, petrol etc but yet to do the hook in hand.

    tailor looks unreal!!

  6. No worries mate. Murphys law can work in your favour sometimes. With a multimeter and a small amount of electronic apitude its easy to check the basics. Well done to your neighbour.

    Im not sure how common practise it is running wires under the floor though (unless its a centre console)

    cheers

    Hi Rod,

    yeah its a centre console dehaviland. When i brought the boat the cables were running under the floor so i followed suit with the fish finder and did the same.

    Do you think i should be running them above?
