Popular Post Bunney Posted January 18, 2021 Popular Post Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) My baby.. Spent so much time at sea with this lady. I would highly recommend. Tipping along at 20knots and not a killer on fuel she's the one for the early mornings and late evenings. Have went nearly 20 miles off for some wreck fishing with great results. Garmin fishfinder and charts I'm in the process of getting it ready for the season ahead. I'd love to change the design of the front seat. Other than that impeccable. Anyone with info about the boats or a good contact for parts I'd be greatful 🙏 Plenty of fishing and exploring done ✅ Edited January 18, 2021 by Bunney More info Geoff, Dicky, suzook12 and 2 others 5 Quote
Andy135 Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Very nice rig that. 👍 What is it about the front seat that you want to change? Quote

Cheers bud ,I think I'm going to have to change the locking system, the latches don't seem to hold the seat in place 100% and the seat tents to lift. Could be doing 20k hit a wave and the seat comes at ya 🤣 I've put wedges in for the rougher days but definetly a latch underneath needed. Edited January 18, 2021 by Bunney suzook12 1 Quote

Yeah, I can see how that would be a downer 🤣 If you post up a question and a pic or two of the latches in the Boat Owning & Equipment section I'm sure someone will be able to suggest a fix for you. 👍 Bunney 1 Quote
Geoff Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 Really nice, purposeful looking boat. nice to see another trailed boat. Thanks for posting. Geoff.☺️ Quote
Saintly Fish Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 Lovely rig Bunny. It’s good to hear she gets used and abused too!! We have a boat meet in July (Covid allowing), Southampton is the venue..... fancy an adventure?? Quote
Plaicehunter Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 A very smart outfit and a good compromise between trailability and usability I should think. I see you have an auxiliary bracket. Do you carry a second engine? The only things I would want would be some lockers and grab rails. Maybe lockers are not so important as unlike me, your boat is not left on a mooring with equipment on board. But safety rails are a feature I would not want to be without, especially when standing to fish or moving about the boat in any kind of sea. The seat forward of the console is a great feature, giving you a backrest. I often think smaller boats like ours get more use than bigger ones. Yours certainly does! PH Saintly Fish and Geoff 2 Quote

PH She has 2 lockers up forward, port and starboard seats are lockers and under the seat on the stern is a locker for fuel. Have a radio and eperb aboard. Have a Mercury 4hp aux. Yeah safety rails are definetly a feature that need to be added I definetly agree. Quote

DanJ Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 Ive just bought the same boat 2nd hand without a motor.. I was thinking of maybe a 50hp. You have a 60 and says it tips along at 20knop. Is that max throttle? I wouldve expected slightly more than that with a 50hp maybe? I wonder if I need to reconsider engine size.. Quote
DanJ Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 Another question.. what size screen do you have for the sonar unit mounted on the steering column? Quote
