Thanks guys.
I'm an electrician. Domestic mostly...been doing it for about 22 years.
NickH the iceboxes are 125ltr I think.
Great job there mate. Where do you buy your electrical stuff from? Around me it all looks like cheap crap.

Cable from http://cameronselectrical.com.au/ . They also do the good lugs and connectors.
I just grabbed my tinned lugs, heatshrink from my local electrical wholesale -Haymans, CNW, L&H etc.
Ashdown and Ingram are also good for 12v stuff.
Bilge pump joins double glue shrinked.

Oh the fuse box. Ive seen a few places have them Man's toy shop, Auto barn, some boat chandleries, Ashdown Ingram.
Mine are Narva ones. BEP also do one that looks very similar.
The big grey box is an adaptable box, any electrical wholesaler will have these.. They come in many sizes. I have all my mercury harness shoved in there.
Off to the weighbridge today.
Boat on trailer ready to fish came in at 1.82 tonne. Mackay trailer has a weight of 455 kg bringing the boat in at 1355 kg.
Motor height and prop testing tomorrow.
This is my afternoon effort, under canopy rod holders mounted with LED light bar brackets.
This boat is a work of art. Any chance of coming up to Mackay and giving me a weekend
Congrats mate on completing a really nice rig - it looks awesome. Now for the big fish ...
Thanks Saltboy, Fish bait.
Sadly to say that after 2.5 long years of a weekend here and a weekend there boat building I have retired......to enjoy the simple things in life, like fishing. Aaarrgh who am I kidding , I'll die with tools in my hands.

Wrap is on !!!
The detail looks awesome.
Just not this weekend.
100 hour mark reached in 7 months. Boat is running great.
A few changes made. Added another 7 inch HDS3 with a p66 transducer, manual jack plate and a couple of rod holders up front. Had a few fuel burping issues but all good now.
The eva floor has been trouble free and easy maintenance. Lone star winch is great and Mercury 4 banger purrs along nicely.
