first fishing trip

Went out today for a run, took Jesse and Lisa (wife) to catch some bait. Jesse was outfished again by the girl , got some whiting and parrotfish and snook.The boat went great, cruised through the chop at 24 knots ,no bashing around nice smooth ride. looking forward to the first big trip.

The guy i got it from bought the boat to get the pen ,this is the reason for antifoul .When his boat arrived he sold this one. Haven't done a long trip to work out fuel economy yet. The motor run sweet, and i don't find it as noise as my 135 merc. (deckie spot as soon as weater soughts itself out Alfred)
