Bondarra's real replacement!

[Ash]

Well, she's no polycraft centre console, and she hasnt got the character of the origional Bondarra....but i finally found a new boat. Just closed the deal on her tonight.

she's a 3.9m stess, carpeted floor, 20hp mercury outboard. bemini cover, depth sounder and inbuilt esky. She was offered at $3650, but got her down to $3200. all she needs now is the bow mount electric. here is some pics [img size=301]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/new_boat.JPG

thanks guys, not going to be able to pick her up till later this week, but as the guys lives about 20 minutes away, no worries there.

Dont know when i can fit in first voyage, going to be busy this weekend, so maybe the next. Thinking of hitting the shultz.

Although, to be honest, i'll probably go for a quicks trip down to the jindalee boat ramp when i pick her up.

I'll need to order another set of stickers too! gotta represent!!!!

Also im looking through my bias marine catologue for a couple of cheap seats, and rod holders.

[James W]

i can hear ya brain ticking over from here ash:P

[Feral]

Whitworths currently have the cheapest rod holders.

Try the boat before you put in seats.

[Ash]

Whitworths? wheres that feral?

And seats are down the track a bit. the electric is first!!!!

[Tim a]

thats hot ash!

[Feral]

One at Breakfast creek, across from the boat ramp. The other at Balaclava st, (next door to Mossops) near where the old knockin shop used to be I think it is still Woolangabba, if not its at the Deshon.

Are you suggesting the electric is a type if insurance policy

The new rig looks like it'll provide years of good fishing. Good pickup

The nimber plet's a but av a wurry tho'. ay cuz:lol:

[Brian D]

Wow Ash that's a beauty. Just a perfect balance for Dams, river, creeks etc. - Smart buying. May I suggest we try her out up the Albert?

[Plastic Man]

good on ya mate thats a beauty be hard to sink her lol

[Ash]

Plasticman-:blush:

I dont think ive fished there Brian, is that down the gold caost way?

[Brian D]

Yeah it's off the Logan. There are stacks of mullet schools in there at he moment, whuch means a very good chance of catching a jewie.

What I like about the Albert is that it is cast net friendly from a tinnie. But I'm not so sure how good it would be this week after the rain.

[MichaelJ]

great buy ash and is that a casting deck at front or just another seat?

HAHA! Plastic Man, that just had to be said .

DW Ash, when everyone else was in for the bbq except you, Gus and I were worrying about you so you weren't all forgotten about .

Haha, we also mad the odd sarcastic and completely out there joke of, maybe he's sunk his boat. As it turns out it wasn't that out there after all :laugh: .

Nice buy, I recon you've done better then the original anyway! Any ideas on names? Can AFO members come up with one? I nominate 'Cool Bananas!' or, 'The one that didn't get away '

What about 'second time lucky'? I could think of these for hours.

[Ash]

ha troy!:laugh:

I was thinking og \"Please Dont Sink!\", or \"The Boat I havent Sunk yet!\"

What do you think?

I may also use the old nickname i had for bondarra, The \"River Rat\" as an official name this time.
