Goes well for what it is at the moment but could use more power thats for sure. Came with a new garmin ecomap sounder and a vhf too so all i have done is tidy some wiring, fit a stereo and a bilge pump.
Now will try upload some pics, anyone keen to upload for me if i fail? Haha



Spinny, we would like to see some pics. Let me know if you need help uploading

Awesome smudge thanks for that. It's been a great little boat and even spent a couple of nights in the cabin.

 I think she is the only one in NZ
The front cabin was a meeting room that converted to an ugly bed
 
She gets along pretty well 15 to 20knots cruising and raised her first Marlin at Cape Brett on Dec 30 - hooks pulled nearly at the leader.
 couple of shots below for you Pompey the LED one is some fun I had for Xmas they colour change on a remote controller

Very nice MarlinMatty. Have you got some specs on that hull? Who was the designer/builder?

I love the front end shape and entry and very sharp straoke/down turn must give her some stability with weight at the back?

Any pics of the inside?

I feel like Ive done everything wrong in my life, owned multiple houses in my 20s, divorced, managed to spend up on large boats and slowly work my way down to small boats bahaha.

One of my dreams is to own a 32-40ft Yacht and use that as a base for fishing, just cruising the country in my boat with my dog and the Mrs if she isnt working anymore. Something nice about having a good night sleep ON the water.

MM you are officially a Viking now :-).

Its beautiful. I just realised its the same boat as above just been sprayed? DUH to me Embarrassed

Can I ask the approx value?

Planned for extensive trips away with the family etc outside gamefishing? Thats the dream. I think Ill end up with a yacht though as you get much more per metre for your dollar and I couldnt afford to run this beauty, I have gone backward in life partly due to health and partly due to an obsession with owning various boats and cars lol :-). Oh well. Lifes a box of chocolates.
