My new boat

[FishFinger1977]

Well I finally got my new boat after quite a bit of time saving, it is an Allison Angla 195 and came with the following 150 EFI Merc, Koden colour sounder (mounted in rather a peculiar way but it is fixed now) X45 sounder, GPS, cassette radio, outriggers, fresh and salt water deck wask, storm covers, rocket launchers and well you get the idea and to boot it came with the service history and was quite well looked after. Oh and it had 292 GPS marks left on the old GPS which I hopefully will get to try soon. I may even have enough of a catch to put in the reports section..that is when I figure how to get these photos to look good at that 100k size :)

Oh and a word of thanks to the guys who replied to some posts i had about Allison boats as it was quite helpful.

Regards Scott

Scott,

Looks the goods and it's got all the gear - coupla Pakulas and it'll be on! Sure is a step up from the Savage - I just hope this ones got a bit bigger tank!

See you out there.

Brook,
The size of the tank in the savage was not the problem...it was the guy holding the coke can funnel ;D Or maybe that greg fellow who had to hook the longtail on the way home ;D Cheers guys

Thanks guys and yes I am very happy with it just need a decent cover until the rocket launchers are modified to fold down.

Corry the outriggers attach to the mounts welded to the rocket launchers i'll put a pic up over the next few days for you.

Dale, the trim tabs are awesome and well worth it for any larger boat I reckon, the old days are gone when I had to shift things around to get an even ride and I am quite amazed at how good they actually are well worth it.

Kev/tony I hope to blood it this weekend if the weather plays the game, don't know about the beakies though.

GO TEAM ALLISON

I used trim tabs for the first time last week when a mate let me drive his Riviera. They are so cool, especially when you've got people running around the boat while underway!

Might be a bit of overkill on my next boat (5.3m) but I'll certainly have them on my cruiser when I can eventually afford to have one ;)

Good luck on the weekend!

[bidkev]

Agreed on the trim tabs. Make you feel like you're *really* in control *and* helps plane at slower speeds. I just love 'em with my mob always shifting about :D

Dale the rig is going good, just a few teething problems to sort out. Leaving Bribie this weekend early if any others are going. Roota it's CVS 106, an old crt colour one. Seems the goods but the zoom function has a few limitations. Regards Scott
