Nice looking boat mate.

Im presently boatless.

I have posted my kayak in a similar thread in the Kayak Fishing section but will do so again as you did specify Boat and Yaks [img size=400]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/2-c441079647670e180251cf2ac4194a63.JPG

I am poor(read wife spends all my hard earned on our 2yr old) so both my boat and my yak cost under $1000 each

I have a 10 foot tinny with a 3.3hp on the back [img size=500]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/128_2835__Custom_.JPG

And here is my Viking Espri yak, the same as Angus's. [img size=500]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/IMG_3171__Custom_.JPG

Good lookin' yak, Wayne - is that a fishfinder?

[WayneD]

It sure is Cliffy. Navman 4150sx. I use it for both the boat and the yak so I have a portable setup for both of them. Here is the setup for the yak. I use velcro straps to keep it on board. The 12V 7AH battery is in the dry bag and it gets held by the bungee cords on the front of the yak.

Interesting boat MM. What are the Pro's of owning a boat like that. I have never seen one on the water. The only other boat I have ever seen that looks like that was on Squidgie Secrets when Starlo and Bushy went chasing bream over in WA I think. Certainly stands out.

Most of you have seen her already but here's another pic for the new members.

4.55 Polycraft with 60hp E-Tech, hoping the tax man's kind this year so I can fit a bow mount electric.

Here is my little fresh water boat - pretty much retired now until my boys get old enough to start playing with it. [img size=500]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/small.jpg

[Feral]

Here is the Silver Bullet, my main Dam boat now. Occasionally I'll get real brave and take her out in the local creek, even had her in the bay once!

Old 4.9m riveted dehaviland. She is in the sweet spot between 4.8 and 5.0m, so no compulsory life jacket wearing for the kids, and dont have to have fire extinguishers!

320amp hours of batteries under the seats, choice of 2 x 6hp's, a 25HP awaiting assembly, and a 55lb electric depending on where I want to go. Planning on a second electric in the near future.

[Lozzel]

This is my latest rig, back to basics. 4.1 mtr ally with 30hp yammy.No more big boats & no more big fuel bills. Keep it SIMPLE (like me) :silly: [img size=500]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/DSCN0621.JPG

[reef_raider]

as long as she does what you want her to do then its perfect
