Hey Everyone

[Nick175]

Hey guys,
My name's Nick, I'm 16 and I am from South Australia. I like spending time on the water and having a fish. My Dad and I usually go out on the weekends and have a good time fishing.
We have an Allison Fisherman 21 with a 175 Mercury OptiMax on the back.
Here are some photo's of her.

Hey,
We mainly go for squid, crabs and whiting but also get a few leatherjackets and gar aswell.
Yea we do get some big squid down here Dave, mainly from Marino rocks.
Sorry Greg, we havent had a lot of luck with snapper, last time we crossed the gulf to Ardrosson and only got 3 decent pan-sized snapper. We got quite a few big ones when we went on a charter at Pt. Broughton though.

[pursuit001]

hi mate nice looking rig they sure do have a shape of there own .
mind if i ask how much you picked it up for .
cheers

[Nick175]

pursuit001 - I think she was $64,000 from the dealer (just the motor, boat and trailer with some extra things like radios and that) Then the canopy, GPS and sounder were all added on after and my dad added a lot of extra things like bait tank pumps and did all the lights, wiring and fitting out himself. (He's a perfectionist)
So all up I recon it would be between $70,000 and $75,000.
