humkyle Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Sup raiders, i have quite the dilemma... tossing up between putting a new false floor, paint etc in my old small 12ft tinny. OR, sell that, maybe sell the outboard i have with it (25hp) and buy a bigger new (2nd hand) boat, which i can comfortably fish off etc. I need EVERYONES advice cheers, HK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micksfishn Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) if your happy with it now just put a little work into it just remember the more weight you put in the more it will slow it down so you may want to look at upgrading the motor Edited July 17, 2009 by breamhntr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tan the fisherman Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 depends on your age mate - I find as Im getting older - 38 now - that comfort is getting heavier on the scales!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humkyle Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 i was looking at trading 2 old motors i have for a newer model, but i would rather invest in a bigger boat. the tinny has a shallow hull, and i would like a boat i can take trolling along the coast or out to close reefs without any hassles, and have a clear floor. haha, im 22, but comfort is still a major purchase influence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tan the fisherman Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 go the bigger boat mate! you'll be better off in the long run. Tan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewgaffer Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hi Humkyle there are a lot of good buys around not just because of the winter but because of the lack of buyers with enough money to spend on boats at the moment... It would be a good idea if you make a check list of selling prices for when you are ready to buy..... Cheers jewgaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olitay Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Flogg it mate, like Byron said there are some bargains to be had at the moment so get out there and grab one. Dont forget the boat show is coming up also, so maybe a good idea to do some research there.... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
