Hi, After a long journey of thinking of a yak, but buying a boat only to sell it to buy a house I have now brought a yak, a Profish GT. Will be using it around Tauranga, mostly in the harbour, or maybe off the Mount coast once I have some hours under my belt. Being a total noob with rigging up yaks, can any other GT owners share some pics of their setups? I have a fair bit of Railblazer gear left over from the boat, rod holders, telepoles, nav lights etc, so am keen to attach a fair bit of that to the yak. But whats the best setup? Looking at the stern of the yak, there isn't much room for a starport there. Incidentally, what are the larger recessed brass insets for? The smaller for running rigs etc, but are the larger just for larger attachments? Cheers

| Nice one good little kayaks. Only advice I got is avoid Piwi down that way, one dodgy fella that guy. |

Starport on the chillpod is the way to go. I've also got one at the front of the tackle pod. ------------- Love fishing, love my job. It's a bloody shame that they clash. http://www.legasea.co.nz" rel="nofollow">

I also fitted mine with the Ocean Kayak Big Catch seat, the 3 pockets on the back of it allow me to store sea anchor and water bottles. Awesome little yak - pocket battleship. ------------- Love fishing, love my job. It's a bloody shame that they clash. http://www.legasea.co.nz" rel="nofollow">
