New toys are exciting well done mate

I pulled up a GT of compatible size Darwin harbour, the charter captan cut it off and said no way bringing that menace aboard, too dangerous he said. Come to think about it my back still remembers it as bigger than yours 😅

Awesome boat and setup, Mick. That is a neat, tidy and nearly perfect setup. Just the best base platform only a few changes and you have it exactly the way you want it. Congrats, mate! When you do the floor, you could do a pod extension with dive platform and a straight transom…sorry just dreaming, what an awesome find and buy! congrats ;)

Thanks mate! It’s awesome, really is a beast of a boat! Can’t wait to settle into it and work out how I want it setup! Not sure about a pod, I’ve heard mixed reports..

Nice boat mate 👍that hull is a classic! Beautiful design right from the first one. I’ve had a Suzi on my tinny similar size to yours for over 10 years, just impossible to fault. Only damage I’ve done is sucking heaps of sand in trying to get back across the hinchinbrook channel at low tide. Super motor

EPIC Haines mate. she's a beauty

This video is epic, nice boat 🤙🤙

Nice vid mate, I love the evil laugh when u see the cod haha

Thanks mate, took my turn looking for boats, glad to have got one in good nick!

Nobody ever regrets buying a classic hull that's in good shape - famous for a reason. I presume much of the interior was retrofitted over time - e.g. those ali seat boxes? It'll be awesome to get to know the boat, then make the changes you want. And the big banga already shows this boat's got the juju with it...well done, mate. And weird question, but how tall are you?
