Sammy0884 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Hey Guys, just wanted to let everyone know that i picked up my poly! and now i finally have my first boat! i drove up to coffs harbour to meet a guy from brisbane yesterday, made the exchange at 5pm, spent the next hour changing the trailer plugs, went to sleep early to get a good start... this morning...wake up at 4am, on the road by 4.30... 4.35 one of the trailer tyres de-laminates at 110km/h, i spend the next 3 hours waiting on the side of the road for a tow, make it to a tyre place at 7.40am, pay for two new light truck tyres and spend the next 8 hours battling traffic and torrential rain to get home... but its all good, chris (crazedfisherdude) and i took it to oatley boat ramp, and took it out for a burn! man! its lightning! but it needs a bigger pitch prop! either that or it is overpowered! so smooth, so soft then chris had to land a 42cm on SP flattie to top the day off! Cheers!! Sammy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sea Jay Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Just like to say congrats aswell i hear that they cut through the chop better than alloy boats which is what i have we will have to test it out andsee which handles better. Nice colour to shouldn't be to hard to spot you on the bay, knowing my luck i will pull up to a blue polly and introduce myself and it wont be you. What is the size of the blue beast??
