Hey Poly,

You will have to send Jumpus an invoice for research and development soon

J.G. have you seen this mob they seem to be Sydney based which may be of help in the building process, having said that i cant say i like the look much but is up to you have a look

Our Postal Address is PO Box 558 WARNERS BAY NSW Australia 2282

That's the problem Bees this guy has given me absolutely nothing, I 1st rang & left a message last tuesday, same day I sent an email niether the ph call was returned nor email replied to.

Finally got him on the phone thursday, told me he'd email me some pics , cost etc

Heard nothing back, rang again yesterday, said he was doing it right away

I cant handle Porky's



I know this very well 3 hr difference & another reason I'm piss'd off with him cause I've been hanging around in the morns waiting for time difference so as I could ring him instead of doing some work.

Allready ahead of you poly

Had a look @ this one

http://www.bodenboatplans.com/power/detail...=135&page=0

Looks OK, I even asked a Q in the members section on the boats specs



It's those 80 x 6mm frames I'm not that raped about, you prob wont understand what I'm on about but I reckon the boat would be a pain in the ass to put together here's a pic of the frames

Not what your looking for. Just a link i found that you and some members might want to look at.. Nice boats

well i did say i didn't like the look much

J.G. i still think that your idea to complete a semi finished hull the best one

No different to any of the other goats poly give that one a coat of paint & finishing touch's & it's a completely different boat

That one was set up for an inboard & didn't have a hardtop

Said it earlier all these plate boats virtually are the same hull wise, cabin etc are mere cosmetic formalities

there is an other way for peeps that can't build there own boat, so taking the parameters laid out by J.G. "ie" 7.mts, hard top, twin out boards and all the fruit I found this on the second hand market, it looks like a top rig

J.G.did u come across this mob in your search

http://www.southerly.com.au/

This is the Striper, my sisters stepson imported from the USA. Don't know what he paid, but I am just showing it as a design input.

that is one nice boat kk, how about some facts and figure, like how much to bring it out all that type of thing, in a new thread of course

Glass boat kk

And yep I know of quite a few peeps who were bringing in boats from the USA last few years esp with the high ozzie $ & poor US economy

Put it this way a 6 meter bayliner with motor for well under $10 k

Well peeps picked up plans/templates today

Nut them out tomorro then I'll get a start on the project

ps] caught up with salty & another mate I hadn't seen for 20 years today & boy have I got some stories to tell

Got any pictures?

Jeez, it's got some nice clean lines Jumpus.. Bet your proud

DON'T LOOK Danny boy. Oh, never mind, I know you will only see the water and the boat...

thank heavens, now i can put Google back in its box

Pretty sure there wont Bee any shortage of fisho's que'n up to get a ride on those curves huh ???

Still no email from that guy who was supposed top have emailed me & I didn't think he would either.

O.K. i will ask the question, who's the designer

Bloke by the name of Mat Collis but the boat will have alot of variations to the original designs

It will be very Jumpus orientated

Cant wait to see it
KK, that Striper. is that Tony's boat? What did it set them back importing one? THey are my favorite trailerable boats, just wanted to compare import prices to local prices.

Ang, what did you end up getting? what boat? let me see!!!!!!!!

4 Man tinnie with fold down canopy

He is off picking up the metal right now..

But you all know how he drives. He left to come out our way at 11am, i rang him at 3pm to tell him i cant wait any longer, and he was still on the road He was in the right hand lane as well i suspect

Hope his driving ability doesn't reflect his work ethic, or this will be an 18 month project

Has he turned up yet Bees???

Yesterday we went for a drive and i took him down the Wakehurst Parkway instead of Pittwater rd so we can save time.

No traffic lights and 80 km/h road.

Save time my ass. I had a looky in the side view mirror and saw a car up our ass, followed by a convoy of other cars.

Had a looky at the speedo and he was doing 50 in a 80 zone!!!

Had to give the old timer a nudge and tell him its an 80 zone!!!!

Wouldve been quicker to catch a bloody train!

AND WE DONT EVEN HAVE TRAINS UP OUR WAY!!!

Put it this a 6 meter say Bayliner 1 - 3 yo ready to hit the water complete with motor talking around $8 k no trailer, container to ship $2,800

Deal with a shark over there like someone I know, paid for the boat & lost $12 k cause the dealer refused to give him the boat even called the cops who warned the buyer he could get arrested for tresspasing & should consult with lawyers being a civil matter.

Where's Judge Judy when you need her ???



All I got was a set of plans no boat yet

Spent this morning redesigning the cosmetics & shortening the boat length down from &.5 meters to 7.1 meters

Stop telling Porky's Bees

Stoped off @ It'll do's 1st to sort out Jigging material, then I had to wait @ Revesby to gets some blades sharpened, one was ratshit so had to buy a new one along with some router bits.

Reckon I made good time getting out to Whoopity Woop Woop land of the Big Brown Moo Moo Cows & Sheepies

ps] You guys must have alot of Kiwi's out your way cause I saw heaps of SHEEP



No salty you didn't take me to see Throw Momma from the train we went & saw Get Shorty ! Remember ????????

That was pretty lame.

I normally have a giggle at your replies even when theyre aimed at me.

But that one was ratshi7!

no salty, its just short of the mark

hmmm we are off topic again, now whats happening with the goat herder,errrrrrr I mean goat builder

Well I'm stuffed

Worked out 2day that this work thingy takes it out of you

You got that right.

Come on guys. He can not be that short. I think that Jumpy might be jigging the photos.
