Very nice piece of kit !!

Almost too good to spoil with fish guts and squid ink! Very impressive Josh. Did you deal directly with the company in NZ or go through a local dealer?

[Cobiaaddict]

I was thinking the same Old Scaley. In my eyes its come up treat

I purchased the boat through Northside Marine at Boondal.  Highly recommended. 

SURTEES have been great also where i had to sort a few small things during the build and they contacted me direct .

Looks good, look forward to heaps

of pic's of all the fishing trips.

  Cheers

Awesome looking boat Josh - exactly what I'll be looking for for my next boat (if I get my own way .......). How thick is the plate bottom on it?

Thanks mate. 

Definitely go take a look at any of the NZ built boats they wont disappoint.

This one was built with 5mm bottom 4mm sides and 3mm top top decks .

Beautiful boat! I think my next boat will be a centre console when the kids get older... I like the idea of being able to walk around the whole boat. Are you going to put a bimini cover of sorts of her for shade? The guys up here in North QLD all have big shade roofs on them.

They make some nice solid boats in NZ. Hope it brings you lots fishing memories.

So how is it going for you?

[Cobiaaddict]

I have been managing a feed of fish on most trips so far, nothing of any particular size or species that excites me .

Still learning a lot about driving deep VEE hulls in less than favorable conditions which has been a lot of fun so far

 Few more weeks and the Cobia should have moved in-to the shallow waters in the northern bay and we can see some real action.
