Plumb

Nice bag. We headed out a few weeks back prediction was slight swell, but as wet popped last jibbon it was at least 2m. Fished close for an hour for a few under sized and headed home. later that day we were off Jibbon with the fam and the swell had dropped to about 0.8 Should have stayed a few more hours lol

Good haul.

That’s a good haul, I’m only just back in a boat so hopping to get out fur a bottom bash shortly

Nooooooo!!!!!!!!, well worth it tho

Great haul, again. A few weeks and my girl should be back in the water. First outing will be bottom bashing for flatties. My 7yo wants to catch two flatheads at once on an over head reel with a gimbel belt on.... one to many fishing shows I think lol

Had this on mine, it’s a setting under the cursor options. I can’t recall exactly now but I’ll turn it on tomorrow and find it

A new addition,, fun for the kids on a junior licence, good for the shallows and not a bad tender to my old girl.

Great haul, definitely no bananas on my boats tho. I’ve come unstuck before lol

As the boats on a Port-a-slip while I do some upgrades, i think i might relocate the transducer to a standard external mounting. I haven't yet tested it at any great depth, but the structure and side scan didn't really work as well as they should have... Any thought's on replacement flooring? marine ply? i was thinking about something like seaboard https://www.allplastics.com.au/component/igallery/applications-menu/marine/seaboard?Itemid=741 but i cant seem to get a price of anyone. I want to insulate it a much as possible from the vibration and noise of the diesel engine. I was just going to replace the marine ply with new, but fixing sound proofing (foam backed left over from a recent job) to the under side. Then ill be sticking a detective imitation teak rubber flooring to the top side.

It hasn’t been tested at any great depth yet. I’ll let you know how it goes

So I installed the standard transducer in the hull. To test it 1st, as suggested by Zoran, i just turned off the beige pump and filled it up. Seemed to work on in the marina so I pumped out out, cleaned, dried it and installed it on a bed of sicaflex, making sure there were no air bubbles. This way I figure if it has to be moved a Stanley knife and some time will be all that's needed, rather then epoxying it in straight away. I had a quick run on Sunday ( in the wind) and it seemed to work well. ill post up some pics of the install once I get back to a few other maintenance items, ( just forgot last time the floor was up)

NRMA got back to me, and its now sorted. cheers

Beautiful

Awesome work, withthe water is still so ridiculously brown.

Hey guys, anyone had experience with New Wave Marine Insurance (RedSky Insurance Pty Ltd) I'm trying to get a policy,New Wave offered the policy, after an online application and reviving a copy of the survey. Nautilus stated that- "Unfortunately we are unable to offer any cover on this vessel due to a combination of the location and mooring type falling outside our underwriting guidelines" Club marine- "that the Cruisers Market Value is required to meet our minimum values or above, based on the length of the boat" apparently I should have spent more, better tell the wife that one.... NRMA have given me a price over the phone but, I'm awaiting conformation once they receive the Marine Survey. fingers crossed NRMA offer a policy.
