Good to hear it finally arrived, you must have been swating thinking it was in one of those container ships off the coast of Botany. 

 

Still arrived just in time for summer, looks great :biggrinthumb:

Hi Squibbly. It was built as a camper by Exel Marine in West Gosford. They used to make commercial punts and made a few of these. Basically a fold out tent on a boat but heaps of room for sleeping, fishing, crabbing and drinking. Trying to work out how to change from tiller to forward control atm. I think Bimini tent works

Don't think Ive posted this one. Dropped down to something smaller now I mostly fish solo, also plan on using this further north in QLD and NT. Deep dropping tomorrow.

Its what was available when I had the money. Theres also the fact they hold their value better than most boats and very low running costs.

Here is my little boat - smallest I have ever owned. Easy to handle, quick and stable.

Had the 3.85 a while back, fabulous little boats. You end up using them more because they are just so easy to live with.

Started fishing in late December with SP from shore and realised pretty quick I needed to get a boat to make it more enjoyable so I picked this up last week to help me get to nirvana

Never owned a boat before but do have 500+ hours experience with other water craft so its not totally new to me. Boat shown is not my actual boat however its close to identical. Mine came with a 40hp Etech on it and Lowrance fish finder/gps and overall the boat is in excellent condition which was a big requirement for me.  I am pretty darn excited and hope to be on the water this weekend rail hail or shine!

 

Got a pretty cracking deal on facebook of all places after months of looking, old owner had a new boat about to be delivered and just needed the renegade gone :)
