Marcus,

Nice rig, well done mate, mine is the blue one as I mentioned b4. I just got on here to PM you in regards to where the photos were. She looks awesome. I asked my neighbour about making the full body cover, however he said it would cost you about $1000 to make it.

Would be worth it in the long run though. Ill take a photo of mine for you 2moprrow with the cover on it and post it here so you can see the cover I am talking about.

All the best Ryan..

That's a flash one Marcus you wont be sorry there mate they make a "big" five metre boat,I got the common as bums colour identicle to Reel Magics but wouldn't swap it for anything..........well maybe a bigger newer Explorer.

I put a Yamaha 115hp 4 stroke. I put the centre bunk in which gives enough room to sleep.

Nice one Marcus,

Great looking colour scheme. I have just had first service on mine after upgrading motor from 90hp 2/ to 100 4/ yammie. It will be going back as the motor is installed too low on transom. On plane the anticav plate is under water and sprays everywhere, and performance is down. Ideally that plate should be skimming top of water. you may want to check out yours as may be fitted the same and the F115 is heavier again, so will sit slightly lower. Hopefully the installers water tested and got that setup right for you.

Has any one played around with props as the std yammie 19K prop seems to be underdone

Ryan,

I had this cover made by Currumbin Trimmers. Great job. They have indicated that this will not scatch the boat and is trailerable.

Marcus

Great looking rig Marcus. What sought of dollars for the cover? I have a 575 outsider and am looking for a similar one.
