Here's a couple of 480's we have just finished. Both are powered by Suzuki 115 hp 4 Strokes.
One is runabout and the other an aft console with front and rear casting deck.
The following pics will tell the stories.
Merry Xmas and A Happy and Safe new Year to all from Col and the Fisher Boat crew.

more good work Col, no wonder you don't need to advertise ;) Nooks and cranny's everywhere - and all it looks like it is supposed to be there.

Col,

Two more "Specials", and still the new ideas continue to flow. Like the set-up on "Smile", especially the rear casting deck that turns into a snooze spot. Gota be able to sleep on the rig !!

Spent a week at Caloundra over Christmas, the place was full of Fishers !!
Saw "C-Boy' 6m ext, a 580 maxi in blue built recently, passed Eddy J's "Dee-light" 480 side console ?? on the highway and others without remembering the names. Breeding like rabbits !!!
Prior to that ran into Gibbo (MichaelG) in "Queenslander" 480 Tiller for a day out on Moreton Bay.

Cheers
Craigie.
