Finshed yesterday and the winds blew so the bad weather was due to my boat being finished. Went last week to Bias Boating got everything I needed to fit out the boat and head offshore with the big boys. Costs as follows Boat and trailer $1300 + Transom and allfiberglass and shelving paint $500.00 + Trailer fix up rollers, winch, tow hitch, paint $200.00 Trailer welding bottle of bourbon + Fit out 150ltr esky,bait board, 27meg radio, epirb,flares,v sheet,rod holders,bilge pump,swith pannel,sea anchor,marine bat and two way switch + 2 bat boxes,100m 10mm anchor rope sand anchor, reef anchor and retrive ball, all nav lights and inside $1500.00 + Misc $300.00. Approx $4000.00 and heaps of hours of labour but was worth it. Took it out for a spin this morning no dramas went well went for a look out the shipping beacons ran around the passage for a couple of hours and went through 25ltre of fuel. So I got on board a 25 ltre tank and a 60ltre tank should be ample. Wanting to get out to cape morton next sunday morning or murphies or hutchies anyone heading out that way yell out wouldn't mind following someone out I am taking an experancied guy with me on my first few trips.

mate you have put some hours in on her, now comes the fun bit just one thing DO NOT call the fishing trips to soon a spiro will go right off and snappa well he is laying very low, looks to have all the right stuff and if you put rods in all those holders you are a rich man like the idea of the esky as the seat to save room.
The Undertaker has arrived people
