i took my folks out for a river cruise seeing as the wind was blowing too much to get them outside (they are getting on a bit with bad joints etc;)). cruised up the nerang river past budds beach around past the titanium bar and came across this anchored in the channel.
a 37 foot sucker with 3 x 300 hp mercs sitting on the back;D.
83911
went on a fair bit further and came across a dredge in one of the back channels and the fishfinder went beserk all around his outflow tube area and heres me without a rod on board to try my luck:(.i didnt get pics of the couple of topless sunbakers on their pontoon but the old man and i copped an eyeful lol;D
on the way back out downriver heading to loders creek the guy driving the 900 hp beast pulled anchor and moved off in front. when he was putting power on all you could see from behind was the cabin of the boat - the motors all but disappeared behind a wall of water as it dug its bum in before getting up and going. i guess he hit the 40 knot mark pretty quick:P the guy drove responsibly and even waited for big gaps in between boats
till he could give it a squirt - i would of struggled with the temptation myself lol.
came across him later on in the broady as well must of been out and had a little play - half his luck. my oldies had a great day out and i was just happy to be on the water midweek with so little traffic and not a muppet in sight;)
cheers ryan
