Here is a pic of the rig I bought for a song. She was not being used so with a bit of cleaning, got her organised and picture taken on trip to Breede.

Very nice boat i had the same sportsman cabin with a 50 merc on it the only

problem i had was that it rolled a bid when watertraffic is passing by.Took it

to bloemhof about 10 times with no problems .I then upgraded to the riverliner

for more deckspace for the children and wife. I tell you youve got a winner

in a small boat catacorie

Thanks man. you have also got a nice set up there. i managed to get this one for R9000 including the 30hp yammie, which while not a new model, does not have many hours on her. Spent about R6 000 for new steering and bits and pieces (rims and  tyres etc) and I am very very happy. I normally fish two (my son and myself) but for fun running around the river, two at the backk and two in the cabin. We are looking to go to Breede again in June and what is also good, is that the corsa bakkie (1.4) tows her like a dream at 100km/h without sucking too much juice. To keep the peace, I let the wife name her. Otherwise it would be called Black Sabbath or Ozzie

By the way i must told you i took off the 10 rims and put some 13 `s on those

10` s get abit warm on the long road and the price is about the same than

the 13`s

also had a problem with the steering but sorted it out quik and easy

just make a pillar at the back to put the motor on when towing to save the transam

from cracking the you well away

Shot for the info on the transom. Will make a plan this winter, cause I am moving to a new house tomorrow and the boat will have her own carport so a good place to work on her at nght and stuff.

Without a doubt man, no problem

Cruising on the river at sunrise, smell of pilchards and chokka, with a hint of scotch in the coffee, what could be better
