Mate got to agree with Robbielies it might be to "too expensive" even for free.

Congrats Nathen, hope you enjoyyour new boat.

Congrats, well done.

Nathen I think I know where your 1st pick is coming from. Nooooooooooooooooooooooo. If your experience is like mine (admittedly a S/H unit) you will get sick of driving back down the M/F5 freeway repeatedly to get work redone Mate go to Craig at Huett for the Stacer. The guy is genuine as, is a site sponsor and will look after you. The small HP etecs may even be available now which would be a great motor in a 30 IMHO. And for the record, i am Yamaha nut. Its just after my exprience I would rate dealer trust above anything else in buying a boat! Feel free to PM me if you want to learn of my experiences with the other.

I suppose with all the red tape it just leads to "losing' them overboard!

Booma to fishraiders and congrats on the BC. They look an excellent fishing platform. Both cars you mentioned should pull the boat well espiecially if you are using good ramps. Thing i like about the AWD on ramps is it is just so surefooted even at low tide when you drop a trailer wheel over the edge. Ditto stewy the interior finish is fantastic, mate has the model below with same driveline and loves it.

I agree re the storm. But NRL (perfer ARL) finals = dogs. Weel be there.

Mate, You are the only one to predict the mighty dogs in the top 8! How many times do the dogs get there. I reckon now they dont have those fat forwards to rely on they will work harder and get the results?

Have given my out a date flares to the Sea Rescue organisations. They use them on training ops.

Congrats well done.

Miller i want come fishing with you

Great idea fisherboy. I am a bit suss of the open stove in a smaller boat too. Is this it?

I like the massive fuel capacitiy of the prados something 180 litres! PLus you will get both base and GXL for under 60k.

I like the diesels the torque is awsome specially as mentioned above, and am going to look hard at the Turbo diesel Prado and Pajero next time.

The 4100 & 620 use the same transducer! Is it the 4100 doesnt output full power?

The last model Kluger drives every bit like a car and IMO handles better than the territory, even better once the OEM Toyos are replaced with something else. The older Kluger is built on the Lexus RX330 floor pan with identical drive line so it is very smooth and quiet. Yes they are ugly but great value with last model you could get the CV seven seat with alloys on the road brand new with all options (B/Bar, Net, Racks, T/Bar) drive away for $39k. All this with Toyota quality, which is brilliant on these. Don’t know if these are still on run out or all gone. I would take FM and others advice re the sand driving. Kluger is not a full blown four-wheel drives. I think the pathfinder has Hi/Lo range? Consumption is great, have recorded 10l/100km on trip. Usually 17-18 when towing. Towbar goose neck is not long enough. Vehicle rated to max 700kg w/o brakes and 1500kg max towing. Don’t know about the new Kluger but it is certainly not ugly! New Kluger has the 3.5 liter out of Aurion which is like 190-200 KW!

is it usually anygood?

Hi Ceph That looks like a pic from "uncle chop chop" guide to fishing for whiting. Just need to lose the freindly demour

Pete Count me for a future Brag mat. Now i all i need some fish to brag over

Blu ray is not yet finished developing and unless you spend up huge on the latest pioneer. You will be paying money for a player that even if Bluray survives will not be able to play all features in a year or two. Most future proofed BD (blu ray) player at present seems to be the PS3. But it has no HD analog audio outs, and does not do the DTS audio codecs. The Sony up scaling player (can’t remember number but is approx $200-230) was a solid unit with reasonable reviews. I will send you a pm re another option FYI.

Sounds like good advice to me.

Welcome to fishraiders sounds like ya got a great boat there look forward to some reports.

Can you get u bolts through the mesh that would then go around your cross beams?

Have heard of crays in botany bay and JB. Have never targeted them or know any more. I think there is still commercial lobster fisherman in BB?
