Maiden Voyage

[Ryan.S]

Well finally picked up the new vessel yesterday arvo. Took it for its first trip this morning, (before the rain set it). Not the best boating wheather up here in the bay at the moment but i was more than impressed with the handling and comfort. Took the wife and daughter over to the Maheno Resturant on fraser for Breaky and would you believe i didnt even wet a line. Promised her id just take her for a cruise on the 1st trip. I did actually throw a baitcaster combo under the towels. Just in case. Any way here is a few pics of the newest member to the family.

Ryan congrats on the new boat, looks sweet in black! Hope you and the family get to spend many enjoyable hours out in her. Whats the go with the Brekky at the Maheno mate? Can you just rock up off the boat or do you need to book? We are coming up to Hervey Bay for a couple of weeks and I reckon a Brekky over at Fraser would be a top idea! I will keep an eye out for your rig while we are up that way, if you see us say g'day!

Cheers and Beers

Will do scott. Yeah mate you can just cruise over and walk in. I have never booked. But it probly might be a good idea in busy times. 30 Bucks a head all you can eat and everything you ever imagined ettable for breaky. And some more. I just tie up at the jetty during the week but if its abit crowded or i have gear in the boat i anchor out and swim after dropping passengers off. Make sure you go far enough. Nearly ended up high and dry in the old boat after a few beers at the Sand Bar with my brother on state of origin night. Mrs would not hav e been happy!
Give me a call if you see me mate. Ch73 Burnin Midnight
