I would like to thank you all for the opportunity to gloat!

She is no Crackleback or Skeeter, but I love her!

Oh, that's the skipper you see. El Capitan Billaridoo Jr.

looks good, you could ask a boat shop to make you a mount for the front and then you can slap a trolling motor in front.

Congrats on the boat man!

Nice boat! And that's a racing engine those Tohatsu's if not mistaken - that setup must haul on the water, congrats!

First I have to spend R4000 on boat repairs, then R1000 on safety gear, then another R1000 on trailer reg, then R690 on COF, then R1200 on motor service and repair and after all of that, I might be able to sell one kidney and do my skippers!

Despite all the extra costs, I am still hyped about this boat and cannot wait to get it on the water.

We had an aluminum box made with compartments for a live well, battery, and gear. Will post pics when it is fitted.

R3500 for the boat and trailer, R6500 for the motor. It should be ready by next week. I am entering the Roodekopjes Bonanza 25 Sept. Need to do skippers and get some time on the water before then........
