Do you have any solutions on installing a descent Baitboard on the 455?

I have an unbraked small boat trailer where the rego papers states it’s weight at 260kg. I took it to a weigh bridge and it actually weighs 210kg. If it were registered at the correct weight of 210kgs it would not need a safety inspection plus the cost of the rta maa registration fee would drop significantly. Can I take my weigh bridge weight certificate to RTA MAA service centre and have the weight details changed to the correct weight which would drop the price of the registration fee? I would be most interested if anyone has done or tried this. PS. Not sure what they name themselves these days so just called the RTA MAA.

Hi Would you consider the Webster twin 4.3 an outside boat or is it to small?

I have a new 50hp tiler steer 2 stroke with tilt and trim electric start oil inj which I bought for a good price... I want to fish offshore and I have 2 choices. 1)....Have it converted to forward steer for $1000 and buy a dearer forward steer boat all up cost would be around $18000 2)....leave motor as a tiler steer and buy a big tinnie this would be cheapest way to go costing around $11000 Is it worth the extra money? If I choose to stay with tiler steer I would consider a Brooker tinnie its specs are 5m long x 2.2m Beam 1.0m depth and 14degree dead rise Would this boat be ok for outside or is the depth a concern Thanks for advice
