I was down at VIPER boats the other day and another crab boat had been finished and was heading North.

From memory these boats are being used by the pro's up there..

Well that little boat would have more uses then just been a rough little crabber. The freswater and briney rivers etc fella's would love it.

What sort of money are we talking about matey??

We were ready to get an original Fisher 4x4 but they stopped making them.
A good, truely HD tinny will always sell IMO.

PS...not a critism but I reckon those seats would be a tad uncomfy.
My butt is big and well padded BUT.....gees they'd hurt after a little while bobbing around in the water.:-/

;D

Nice looking rig that Viper.

Hey finga, Col and Richard at Origin Boats are doing a re-design of the 4x4 and planning on making them once again. They should be a pretty great crabbing, offroad etc boat hopefully.

Cheers
