Nice colour, good motor.

*starts scraping foxhole with helmet*

Tim, to explain, there's two things that start an argument on this board - one is boat colour and the other is motor choice. I have the same as you - a white boat and a Suzuki motor, so we obviously share excellent taste. I don't suppose you're a fly fisherman, by any chance?

[Pirate Pete]

Glad to help Timbo

Doug is right about the colour thing but the Yellow brigade have been quite lately.

We all know that WHITE is the only true colour.










Oh the other thing is Doug likes to stir. . . . . .

[Doug]

"but the Yellow brigade have been quiet lately"

I believe that most of them have succumbed to jaundice, obviously caught from their boats. Not that we'll miss them or anything........

[Remy]

There are few new Yellow boat owners (pirate) that wanna play too

[Doug]

Oh, Gawd, not a nother one!

[chin]

Great rig Timbo, same as mine.....except it isn't green :D
Looks well set up too, what do you fish for down that way?

I agree with chin, only problem is the colour. Must be green. I'd be embarrassed to drive a white boat.

I like the light setup. I was thinking of putting some spot lights on my side console, but was going to put an alloy or stainless rail over the top to mount first. Any suggestions anyone. Is there a max wattage one can draw from a suzi 50 4 stroke?

Note to anaemic boat owners: You can't even use your favourite colour to write things on the forum......... That's because it becomes invisible. A white poly is just an attempt to blend in with the background of white-painted tinnies instead of standing tall and proud.....pointlaugh

Imagine trying to be an invisible polyboatowner.....laugh1

And Pete, as owners of properly-coloured boats we don't have to talk a lot to make our points. That means we can be QUIET (not QUITE) just like our poly boats.2thumbsup

Wait until Miss Jane reads your post. Doug, over to you....

[BigFella]

Ah BBB'
a man after my own heart!
Why own a stand out boat if all you try and do is blend in! Go figure!wtf
Stand tall young man, Be "Poly PROUD and Colour LOUD!!!"

That last one is for the orphan!

Cheers my coloured brothers!

G'day all,
Ha Ha, cant believe theres a colour issue on here, thats funny ! I like white but I also
like the coloured ones , if I ever get another one I think I'll go for a blue one.( hows that
for sitting on the fence !!)
Doug, no I'm not a fly fisherman, but I would like to try it. I just dont need an excuse
to bye more fishing gear at the moment.
Chin, I fish alot in the Glenelg river, bream, EP's, mulloway etc.also like to fish at
Portland for flatties, kingies, trevs , snapper etc. , fish for KGW at Pt Mac and other
spots around Mt Gambier.
Dozer, I cant remember the max. wattage for a df 50 , I only have one spottie on
at a time, ones a flood and the other is a spot, work good though.
I would of liked them to be further forward but they would only get in the way.
Towed my boat from Mt Gambier to Merimbula last june ( 13 hours straight )fished
Merimbula , Pambula and Mallacoota , what a great trip, caught some huge flatties and
heaps of other stuff. Going again this June, cant wait !!

They are some thumper KG Whiting there Timbo.
I used to get down that way on surfing trips when I lived in Adelaide, from memory my wetsuit was never quite warm enough. :eek:

[Pirate Pete]

G'day all,

Tim.....

Thats what the whole site is about. FUN yippy yippy

[Timbo45]

Check this out Chin, 3 of us , 36 KGW in 45 minutes..........it was the hottest bite of
whiting that Ive ever seen ! 45 minutes to catch them and 3 hours and 8 stubbies to
clean and fillet them. Great fun...
