Hi all, First time chatter. I've been reading everones posts for the last week so I thought I'd finally get in the spirit. Have just sold the Allycraft 4.1 TopEnder and upgraded to the new Alleycraft 5.4 Platey. should have it next week, Just waiting for the 115 opti- Their suppose to arrive in Oz this week. I'm looking forward to getting out further afield, haven't been outside since I Was a Kid 30 + years ago. Parents had a weekender on Coochie in those days. Unfortunately started working for a living and only rediscovered fishing a year ago. Lucky for me the wife loves it more than me and it was her idea to upgrade. Hope to give the boat a test run over to the sand hills next week. The weather better be good as my 3 boys are getting sick of the "when I was a boy" stories about fishing Morteon and outside. Look forward to seeing some of you at Viccy Pt ramp.

HI there chromedome. Welcome to Ausfish. I know you haven't gone into any great detail about your new boat but the two magic words "plate" and "Opti" already have me drooling with envy. Look forward to your posts and as Great_White said earlier make sure you post some pics of the new rig. ;)

Welcome Chromedome,

Make sure you use your boat frequently, especially if you have boys wanting to go out. I think it should be a unwritten rule to use a nice rig like that , more than once or twice a year like some..... :-/ Carefull going out of Vic point, the ramp at Vic VMR can get shallow at low tide. I'd hate to see you ding your prop on its maiden voyage. ;) ;)

Hey scalem Thanks for the tip, have been out in the old boat on average 3 times a month for the last year. hope this won't change. As for the Viccy Pt shallows I think I've found most of them by now. I will still be leaving from there as I swing past my parents place and keep them in fish when I can and better still use their tank water to wash the boat. Sure beats bucket washing it in brisbane.

Mate,

I don't know what we are going to do if the next level of water restrictions happens. What's your parents' address??? ;) ;) :o :o ::) ::) ::) ::)
