did a heap of trips on aquasition with jimmy, for sure he was a meticulous owner and it is fit out for serious fishing, got us home in some heavy weather too. ask jimmy about the next raft up at tangas.
would have to be the best patriot around.

Thanks for the comment everyone, to say I'm happy would be a under statement jimmy handed over the boat in perfect condtion it looks like it just come of the show room floor. Now with the help of Grand Marlin (Pete) where removing the the furuno radar (which is up for sale) and installing a new Lowrance radar to my HDS 7 which is going in, structure scan also.
Now the fish in the pine river wont stand a chance LOL
Joe
PS: I know how much of a hurry you to get this on the water Pete just in case i have to come get the cat if the weather turns bad LOL

Probably the best maintained boat in Queensland.
Look after her!

When Joe had his Yalta 555 you had to wear sunglasses to look at it, as it was always beyond pristine...
I quote:
Joe: "I know it's dead flat out there, but I am not going fishing 'cos the boat needs another polish"
Me: "You're kidding? right?"
Joe: "Nope, I can't take it fishing if it has dust on it"
Me: "... but the boat lives under cover ... "
Joe: "Yeah but it still gets a few specs of dust on it..." :o:-?;D
I think Aquasition is in good hands!
Cheers
Pete
