1. Orkney Strikeliner 16+ We bought a 5 metre Orkney fishing boat and prepare to tow it home.

Me and my wife Sarah have bought an Orkney Strikeliner 16 + fishing boat from Anglesey in North Wales. We stored it on my mum’s driveway for a month whilst I got a towbar fitted on my van and until we got enough time off work to be able to go and collect it. We changed the trailer tyres and wheels for new ones and then towed it the 300 mile journey down to where we live in Dorset.

    Really enjoying all your videos Matt. Well done for all your efforts. Your boat looks so much better than when you first bought it!

    I know it's cheeky but do you mind me asking what you paid for it in this condition. I'm looking at purchasing one. I don't mind abit of work. Thanks

    This could be the subject for a future video! I paid £4500 for the boat, outboard and trailer as you initially see it in the video. Plus £200 to insure it all. The boat is from 1990, the outboard is 2009 and the trailer is 2018. Personally, for a modern 4 stroke outboard in excellent condition I’m willing to pay £100 per horsepower. And I reckon the trailer is worth about £1000. Hope this helps.

    Hi, can I ask why you went with a Strikeliner and not a 520? The 520 costs slightly more I appreciate, and is slightly longer, but it would maybe have less work to do than an older Strikeliner perhaps? I’m in the market for one or the other as upsizing from a Coastliner. Many Thanks
