No fishing......

Fri, 2011-05-06 20:32

Lack of fishing does that to a man, especially when all his mates tell him what a day it was.....lol

You might want to start digging into the "Hello Pandas" to drown your sorrow.

southbound

Sat, 2011-05-07 10:37

i think I,ve the the southbound 4yrs, even though she drives well and handles the sea, id like to go bigger, as we are heading out 30-40nm these days for deeper fish,

centre console?

Sat, 2011-05-07 12:29

Research these:

http://boatsonline.com.au/boats-for-sale/used/trailer-boats/angler-panga-26/91559

But don't take any advice from someone who hasn't been in one - check out pangaforum.com, angler panga.

Hmm..

Sat, 2011-05-07 12:47

I don't think a CC would be suitable for travelling 40nm out from Cape Nat. We get some dodgy weather along with cold winds.

He's looking for something at least 7-8m, possibly a Cat or large Mono Ali  if that's helps you guys narrow down your suggestions

Cmon Matt, 40 miles from Cape

Sat, 2011-05-07 13:12

Cmon Matt, 40 miles from Cape Nat in a CC is character building ;-)

Heres one http://www.boatsonline.com.au/boats-for-sale/used/trailer-boats/pmy-24-centre-console/85903

I`d be seriously looking at glass instead of ali for big trips though.

Friend's dad has one in

Sun, 2011-05-08 13:31

Friend's dad has one in Exmouth but I haven't ever been in it so can't comment on the ride.

His has the yanmar diesel in it, I'm aware of at least one other that had a few problems fine tuning the motor selection.

Likes the boat, says there are a few bugs with it, he is not real keen on westerberg marine after the build experience though.

Jim at Marineline in Gnangara has built a couple IIRC.
