Cyclone gets some TLC prior to sale

[craigie]

Have had my Cyclone 540 for close to 10 years but have now decided to sell it to pay for other projects.
The boat is still in very good shape but needed a good detail to get it to shine again !
I had discussions with Matt Millington from BCGA at Cleveland to do the job for me. He gave me a very competitive quote to clean up the underside of the hull as well as doing the clean and polish on the coloured sides and white top sides. The boat has come up a treat, couldn't be happier ! Check out the pics........might be upside down but you get the picture;)

Just need to add the new windshield, add a length of trim and pop the canopy back on and the Cyclone is ready to go.
Will have a full add up in the next week or so.

Regards
Craigie

mate I just fixed for you
so we all can have good look at this beautiful boat
no many of this boats around
watched this boat few times flying a cross Moreton Bay ,and I use to say F$%& this thing goes like bullet

[craigie]

Thanks Fadil for fixing up my pics. Not sure why that upside down stuff keeps happening ? Sorry guys, no not a chiropractor and I certainly can't do handstands either :)

BCGA stands for Boat Care Group Australia, they operate out of a shed at Cleveland. Great guys who specialise in a wide range of boat and outboard repairs. Certainly guys to talk to about getting any size boat detailed. Got them to do a part replacement on my outboard while they had the boat. As soon as I get a chance I'll post up a business card.........but it could be upside down ?

Yes Mike, I am going to miss her when she is gone !! Normally a few fish scales laying on the floor but now she is clean and gleaming ! The more I look at it the more I weep..........
The next boat will be like a bus compared to this Ferrari !! Yeah Fadil, scooting home from Moreton Island on those 5 kn days was awesome, sit on 30 - 35 knots and hold onto your hat !

Great to see you are so stoked with the outcome mate!
Boat came up a treat, will be hard to sell her now!

As Craig said BCGA stands for Boat Care Group Australia, we are a relatively new company, started operating in July this year.

If there is something you need doing, dont hestitate to call or message, happy to look after Ausfish members as we did with Craig.

Craig,
The old girl looks awesome mate and don't worry, I'll happily trade a ride in the old seafarer for a run in your new project any day! I can't wait until you start posting a few pics of that sweet ride on here and I'm sure a few of the other fishos on this site won't mind either. Time to get to it ;)

[bugman]

OK I'll bite mate.
What are you buying?

[craigie]

Thanks Deelirious, I'm sure we can reach an amicable agreement !
Yes mate, we can't wait to start getting our teeth into the new project........

Yes Buggy, Cyclone is going to help with funding for new projects. Replacement boat willl be an older 15' foot fibreglass Half Cab, currently owned by Sav. Make those overnight trips a bit more comfy. downgrading the boat to free up some serious cash for this project........................................... .......................1968 Dodge Charger rebuild !!
This is a joint project with my younger brother. We have big plans for it ! recently imported and awaiting a cash injection to start bringing back to life.........
