[tropicrows]

It's official, just sold my boat.
Going to a good home in S.A. gets on a truck after Xmas. So now I'm on the market for another boat, going to be a tinnie but that's all I know at this stage.

Hey Bruce, saw you returning from Raby Bay on the weekend, whoever bought this got a great boat! credit to you with the rebuild.... look forward to seeing what you end up with..


PS.. just dont go with the tinnie dome tent option like Netmaker unless its tiki:D

[wags on the water]

Nice little xmas bonus Bruce. Make sure your next boat has grey carpet.

Cheers.

I have 2 options
1) get a smaller boat so it's easier to get in and out of my driveway.
2) move to another house and get a bigger boat.

At this stage it's option 1.

I have no idea what I'm going to get. I didn't expect to sell my boat so quickly, I didn't even get around to advertise it for sale. I told my brother in Adelaide, he told his son and the next thing I had this guy ring me up and say he wanted to buy it.

Why go Tinnie when you could go Poly? Alot more comfortable and alot more quite than a tinnie.

[tropicrows]

That's a thought, had not considered that option.

[lucee81]

you could always buy mine.....

[tropicrows]

The guy who purchased my boat. Has got it on a back load with a removal truck. However its going to,be towed down 2150 km. Hope it gets there in one piece.

[tropicrows]

The boat left my place late Friday arvo, and I got a txt message early Sunday morning form Simon saying "my new boat has arrived at Adelaide".
At 9 am Simon sent me this photo showing of his new boat.

Alli my partner has put the hard word on me, get out there and buy another boat.

Well done, sad to see it go Bruce, you had a lot of heart in that boat and did a great job rebuilding it. I would often see you in the bay sitting the with Ali and I would think how proud you must be. It looked great and had a lot of great work put into it. Sad to see it go but also excited for your next one!

Cheers

PS I would go for option 2, the house is holding you back!!! :)

If I sold it after putting all that time into it the mrs would sack me!! Divorce was close during the whole ordeal. Maybe that might not be a bad thing? At least I would be able to fish more!! lol
