Matt looks good, a big change to what we loaded last march.

As for skipper, dont you still need your mates untill your learners liscence gets upgraded??? or have you done it already?

saturday looks like it could be sort of fishable.

Looking good. If you ever need "paying" crew let me know. Always looking for an excuse to get out into the big blue. Are you going out this weekend? I am still undecided with the weather. Maybe Sunday.

Hey Big G

I really need to get out this weekend!
unfortunately busy sat morning so hopefully will give her a run early sunday.

Will let you know when/if Im short on crew!

Well the new look impi floats, she rides the sea well, but her fish catching MOJO was missing. Sea trials yesterday went 100% except for lack of fish. It is difficult in 16 deg water though.

Now I don't feel so bad. Wanted to go out yesterday but the wife had me putting up curtains and doing DIY around the house.

I choose my battles, and there are many weekends coming to do a bit of fishing.

Where did you get all your consoles from? I have a project coming up in the winter ans it look like some nice consoles you got there. Great job, hope she brings you lots of nice fish.

 

[lurker69]

I bought the main console and the battery/livewell from buttcat... the front hatches and fuel box I made from hulabond and aluminium...

@lurker69

Please will you give a quick explanation of  how you bent the perspex without hairlines cracks forming?

 

[lurker69]

Hi Whitewash

Its Polycarb not perspex. Much stronger. Youre supposed to be able to bend it with a heatgun. I didnt bend it myself , I took the aluminium base (bent to fit my console) and got them to bend the polycarb to fit...

Hope this helps....

I wouldnt use perspex...
