We're currently looking to buy a motor home, and I'd like to be able to take a small boat along on our travels to extend any fishing opportunities that may come my way |
Ive got a 3.2m akron roll up inflatable, has inflatable keel with aluminium floor, bloody good to stand up in the inflatable flicking baits in the wash) 8hp, sits in our motorhomes boot
outboard, inflatable, tote tank, mixing oil, outboard stand plus the rest, all fits in the boot. On the roof of the boot, fishing rods, flounder light & spear plus other stuff is fixed to the roof ply, nicely out of the way
The removable aluminum floor sits in another outside locker
I use the steven tapp drift chute from off my kayak when drifting softies / sliders.... definitely needs something better to slow the drift down
I chose this brand of inflatable as it had some type of bow sprit (well, its really an extra layer of material to protect the pontoon from dragging the anchor rope & chain over it) & a tie off ring below it built into the pontoon to tie off an anchor rope
Fully loaded with just me, the boat planes around 8kt, full speed 15kt, with 2 ppl, about 8kt full speed
For fitting out a ff / gps for the above http://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/topic85068.html
Our motorhome is a Traillite Coromandel
I see you're in waiuku, Traillites home base is in Paerata, not far from you
