You can't complain about those stats... would bring smiles at the bowser for sure.... Cheers Z

Mate smiles all around on that effort. Top report and top catch ! Glad you got out there - your dad and his mate must be chuffed to have their own charter boat at the ready.... hahaha. Cheers Zoran

Nice report. Glad to hear Kong’s are still about. I tend to pack and go when seals appear- always fun to watch - except when fishing! Cheers Zoran

Sounds like an Excellent day out. Great photos. Cheers Zoran

+1 for solder splice ... I use them all the time. Fleabay is a good place to source them economically if you can wait to receive them. I also put some heat shrink over the top if used in a submerged location. Cheers Zoran

Rule 360GPH ... I've had 2 in 20yrs ... they last. Mine is in the water all the time and on 95% of the time when i'm on the water - including when underway. Cheers Zoran

Wonderfull ! ... isn't it great when it goes to plan and you are done early with a big smile to boot... Cheers Zoran

Doesn't seem to be such a tough decision....seems like a choice between better and best ! ... Best of luck. Cheers Zoran

Sounds like an awesome trip.... and a great write up mate. Glad you got into some scale despite the weather 👍👍. Cheers Zoran

Well done. Thanks for the tip re live bait. Cheers Zoran

Way to go Rick ! Droolin’ 😀 Cheers Zoran

Yes yes nice consumption figure.... not sure why they are Etecs (seems you guys should call them oooh-ahhh-Tecs) .... would you have any idea of how many kms you covered? For comparison my 200HP EFI Merc, last Sunday Parsley Bay-50-60m flathead grounds-FAD-trolling-Parsley Bay ... over 100km covered, used around 100L according to gauge. We trolled at 1700rpm (12km/h), and punched back from offshore at up to 50km/h (4400-4800rpm), in the river 60+km/h(5100rpm). So I'm still pretty happy with the black growl...but it doesn't have the torque to park the boat half way up the road ! Cheers Z

Very Very nice. Hopefully I can get out and chase some this year... Cheers Zoran

Yup ... would really be a crap end to the day ... so shiny too 😪 You guys are always advocating how much torque the eTecs push out ... guess he over-revved her coming up to the trailer .... darn that eTec ! Cheers Zoran

PM sent. Agree with PaddyT... sounds like a fuse or circuit breaker or even faulty isolator switch. Cheers Z
