Gday all
Not long finished putting my new vessel together and just in time for my big return from nsw to bundy to hassle some barra!
I bought the Makocraft 440 tournament hull with decking and did the rest myself.
I havent finished running it in yet but seems to go great. Will prob upgrade the 40hp to a 60 four stroke a little later but she will do just fine for now. Added a custom console with the makocraft top half moulding and windscreen.
Should be zooming around monduran and awoonga in the extreme near future!!
Be great to catch up with some members when i move back up!!

Mate, she looks great. Bet ya can't wait to get into them barra?? I would have thought the 40 would have pushed her quite well.

Nice little job there I'd have to say and I like your electronics combo.
That's the same as my little setup in the big boat.
Now for some blood and guts hey :D

turned out a treat Rob, well done, and with a 60 on the back at a latter stage, it will scoooot, the bigger the better, and good luck with the barra
