why Sumo THANK U SO MUCH the only way i can convince J G that a poly will last a life time
'

Well peeps I just got word that the Chi Nee Government strongly influenced by

Emporer Nazzi Gorrea

Has just placed a huge order with Polycraft, they have ordered a flatilla of 4.1 meter polycraft fitted with 50 hp 4 stroke Yamaha's

These boats are to be used on the Great Wall of China

To Keep the RABBITS Out

Apparantly rabbits dont like to eat plastic

J G, u are a ripper do u know how hard it has been for me to argue against peeps saying that rabbits eat poly's i can now referee them to u as u have the facts and can put them strait, oooh by the way that should have been 40hp only a showoff would put on a 50hp tiller steer :TazSpin2:

Not My Bloody Fault !

You Got Me Started on Those Bloody Poly's Again

i like that one summo....any way who cares as long as it floats and you dont get wet .......same as cars all get you from a to b ....just a different ride or drive ......tell some one who cares jumpy just because ya grand father dies and left ya 10 million dollars it doesnt make your boat float better than our ....so stick that up yapipe and smoke it..............................

Ouch!!

double Ouch :jawdrop:

Well Well Well if it aint MOTOR MOUTH professing to be a Proffesor on the topic of boats

ps] Just as well as I haven't told to many of your boating exploits Dave cause everyone would start laughing @ you

Now if you could only harvest the Energy which comes out of your mouth & fasten a prop to it then stick your head into the water out behind your transom you wouldn't need an outboard would you ??????????

You'd be propel,ling your boat on speech alone

Jumpy, what's YOUR dream goat?

Frankly, I'd be happy with anything...as long as it has no holes and get's me around, I'm content.

I had a spare 25hp motor left over, after replacing it with a 40hp. Designed this boat for some trolling along the flats, but can't get it to keep the bow up when I throttle back. Any suggestions? I am willing to swap it for a 5m tinnie or poly, if anyone is interested. Also throw in a poly Sorry Poly - just kidding around - as usual.

Dont think I have a dream boat in mind quite happy with the 2 that I've got

The bigger one will get me anywhere & back has heaps of room & is fitted out the way I want rides well & will leave most boats in it's wake in any sort of sea.

Did have a larger moored game boat but like all different types of boats they all have their goods & bad points

With any moored boats you need reliable drew & thats mission impossible

With the 23 ft'er I have now I have no probs whatsoever taking it out on my own & it's got the hp to get me to & fro in no time I've made the comment I always feel safe in it & no truer words have ever come from my mouth.

Good example was last wednesday when we came home from 32 miles out initially took it easy cause it was a bit heeby geeby out there but still managed a comfortable ride sitting on around 15 - 17 knots but once in a bit closer seas settled a bit & down went the throatles.

Now in this boat you cannot broach it runs true the hardtop keeps you dry as & protects all the electronics the boat has very little if any maitanence exept if I get another brain explosion & want to do something else on it it has every gizzmo [ not jasons dog ] on board

Now That's My Ideal Boat

I dont have to dream I've got one & not because I own it either moreso the way it is setup think that plays a big part in having a boat & a ideal boat.

Even with all the gizzmo's [ again not jasons dog ] it still one drawback !

It dosen't allow me to fish shallow places & it's a bit on the hard side to fish SP's or lures & thats the reason I have the smaller tinny it lets me fish places the bigger doat cant having said that if I had to choose only being able to own one boat it would definately be the bigger plate boat no Q's asked

now now J G u are not playing the game, we all know how much u think of your tin thing's but one day u may just have to replace one or both heven forbid so put some thorght in to it and impress us with your insight :TazSpin2:

Spent alot of time & $$$$'s rebuilding my big boat poly think it will be good for anothe decade or so & dont know what my fishing habits will be like in the future.

But if I did have to replace it in the near future I'd have to look around to see whats available did go to this years boat show & was not overly impressed & it's not my arrogance talking either.

I would go plate boat again I'd look @ specs not just material used I'm talking gunnel hight again I would go wet deck & hard top no Q's about that.

After doing reseach & going for a test drive with me behind the wheel I'd order unpainted hull only & fit it out the way I want it.

ok that's what we would like to see u do, i am quite sure what u say about your boat lasting well in to the future is a true statement.
But u are coming home after a days fishing and the boat is hit by a semi trailer at the lights, its back is broken what now, the new one will have to be alloy, will it be a 6mt?? 7+mt??? have a look out there my friend will it come from the west like the old one or will u go to a manufacturer on this side of this gr8 land please let us know what u find.
oooooh and have fun if u must but we await your findings with baited breath ;) ;) ;)

Yep, or say your boat sinks off browns whilst on fire and exploding into bits and pieces and then those bits and pieces are taken to different areas by birds and all the electronics and floating bits are eaten by tuna, and those tuna are then eaten by makos.

OK.....NOW what boat and engine do you want knowing $$$ is no object and neither is storage or whatever. ;)

Still sticking with my landcrusier craft, However If i was to go fishing only boat it would be plate, I would get something in the 6-7m range, Not sur on brand, but would probably go a custom fitout.

Was in the predator factory and they had a great looking setup with hardtop and cabin with door and a massive rear deck, looked awesome, was being setup as a dive charter boat but could easily be changed into a fishing rig.

Please take this the right way.....but

You blokes should be careful what you say,even if it is imagined!!!!

Karma is a weird thing.

The missus and i once told a lie to get me a night off work,by saying that someone we knew was in an acco,lo and behold the missus's best friend died in a car crash the next day :o .

Now i know you's don't mean anything,it's just harmless fun BUT things have a way of happening,i know if anything did happen 'KNOCK ON WOOD',you's would have to live with the guilt just like me and the Missus have :huh: .

Jumpy take care mate,just for a coupla days !!!
SMELLY

ps,i don't mean to offend anyone .but i was'nt laughing when i read that stuff,now maybe if ya's mentioned DIN......arrrr thats not nice i'll stop right there!

Good thing I don't have a boat then! ;)

Now if you wanted a boat to fish creeks, rivers, bays and offshore plus family cruising and activities that was cheap to run and easy to tow what would you choose?

Me, I'd be thinking pressed alloy four stroke, maybe something like a Quintrex 520 Coast Runner.

Can anyone come up with a better allround alternative?
