Made me mind up ::) :-/ :o ;D

Didn't like the idea of planning me fishing around whether the boat would fit on top of a Jayco, in fact, didn't like the idea of planning me camping around a Jayco. ;D

Decided that the Jayco could come when I am a *really* old fart, till then, I'd continue to camp canvas, crocs or no crocs and spend the money on a bigger tinnie but still manageable. It'll also double as a trailer for the camping gear :D

Settled for a 3.95 stacer sea sprite pushed by a 25 long handled merc. Fancied the pro-line punt for the stability at rest but it can get pretty sloppy at the pin so the sprite won by a whisker when it comes to cutting through Bermuda chop :D. Can't wait to get back to basics and might even try them new fangled rubbery things that wobble :-)

Seems an eternity since I sank a crab pot.........Hayes inlet........look out! (Plenty of catties in there) ;D
