Hodgey Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Amazing transformation Chris I like the way the space in front of the console has been utilised. There is a mile of fishing room in that boat. Very nice ride, mate Cheers Hodgey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinkymalinky Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Awesome looking job Ceph. If it's one of the boats I think it was, I always thought they'd make a great fishing machine. Well done on picking one up and turning into a sweet ride. Cheers, Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gretsch Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 It had great bones when I first saw her!! I went out on her a few times. She had a hard life being a charter boat for 11 years. Anyway, with all the damage stripped away and some reconfiguring inside, a new donk and electronics, she is an awesome fishing platform. Thanks for the nice comments lads.

Josh88 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Thought that hull and layout looked all too familiar to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnno Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 great stuff Ceph it should serve you well looks like a weapon now what colour is it metallic black or just solid black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewgaffer Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Ceph I saw that boat in boating only yesterday and honestly mate I thought just you had just shipped it over from the States... Geezus mate rather than having a skeleton of a boat recycled into sardine cans just look what you can finish up with By the way mate I hope you have plenty of ash trays on board as it looks like if you flicked out one of your Havana cigars at that speed, it would finish up in someones lap on the Manly Warringah bus Cheers jewgaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregL Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 G'day Ceph She come up a treat buddy. Saw her a few times down at the shop and man, what a transformation! Congrates Chris on the new vessel and hope to see it out on the harbour as much as I am! Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first coats were matte but it didn't feel right. It was like wet and dry sand paper and no good for a marine environment. The satin was a good choice as it tends to cover the imperfections in the hull reasonably well and provides a good level of sheen for cleaning etc.. G'day Ceph She come up a treat buddy. Saw her a few times down at the shop and man, what a transformation! Congrates Chris on the new vessel and hope to see it out on the harbour as much as I am! Greg Cheers Greg. I saw your beast up there a few times too. I will be on the Harbour every weekend and a few mid weekers too. If you see me, come and say gidday.

Diesel1 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Hi, boat looks great are they sturdy? Do you have any paperwork with the boat when it was used commercially. I am looking at buying a Mutimer boat 7mtr but need documentation on this vessel and can’t find the boat builder as I want to put my boat into survey. Any help on this would be much appreciated as we have hit a brick wall on finding any info on this boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
