And the inside, crayman's hand has met that bait table so many times when starting the motor. I have a nav-man fish 4100sx. It runs on a battery that I got of a golf buggy ( not a driving one ) so i can re-charge it. I also got 14 in volvo tyres on it so i can take it long distances.

Thank you

Here are some pics of our tinnie, 3.95 Allycraft Avalon. Since buying (2nd Hand) I put in the front casting deck, hinged with storage under. Made up the rear casting deck and had 'Holt Marine' weld up the supports, at the same time they welded an infill on the transom for the electric motor and a bracket on the bow for the same electric so you can move it around depending on the conditions. It is quite stable with 2 people throwing SP's.

Regards Cameron.

This is my SeaJay 4.55 SP.

At the back I have got two boxes that have battery and fuel tank. And with enough room to store a few odds and ends. They are made from construction ply and a few coats of resin and the corners have been reinforced with fibreglass matting. Simply covered with carpet. Very solid and can be used as seats when more than 2 on board.

Above them I mounted some extra rod holders that screw to the transome.

Down the left side I put some rod holders to keep light easily broken rods off floor.

On the right side I got a storage box that is mounted up off floor to throw a whole heap of crap in. Sinker box, spools of line, gaffs, dongers etc.

Above that is a mount for GPS. Note the bracket is broken and currently using drink holder. The mount also been made to fit VHF in underneath. I used a clipsal fuse box for boat electrics switches.

Under side decks I have mounted 3 fluro lights around boat that reflect off sides and fully light up floor without shining in your eyes.

For up the creeks I have a 3.6m Aquamaster cartopper which has just go a heart transplant with a new 9.8HP Tohatsu. It does 38Km/h with it on the back which is quick for such a small boat.

The next stage of fitout commences now I have more power but at presnet it still has rod storage, sounder,GPS chart plotter, racks for oars.

My other boat is a 4.8m Fisher with the 60HP 4stroke Yammy and Minnkota. I can still use it up the creeks but I need a bit more water.

4.10 Brooker with 3cyl / 3 carb 30hp Yam...

Fair bit of custom work - floors, casting decks, switch panel, sounder, bimni, bilge pump, lights, hatches, live bait tank etc.

Good little rig which keeps surprising me where it can go comfortably!
