The idea of kayak diving has always tickled my fancy, but dragging a wet kayak up a beach when your stuffed has always detered me 😂 Boat is looking sexy! Hanging for that thing to hit the water

The kayak wasn’t so bad to transport hey. Ben’s had wheels, so he wheeled his with one hand and carried the other end of mine with the other. I definitely got the better end of the deal haha.

Mint. Kayak spearfishing is awesome. Make sure you have everything clipped on! Best part use your kayak as your float. I used to use a floatline with a shark clip and would clip off the yak to reef and use the reel gun when working a spot. Never needed an anchor. Also doesn't disturb the fish!!! Go get em

Hey mate, could 100% use it as a big float. It’s great as a ‘home base’ as well on a shore dive. Thanks for the tips 🍻

Cant wait to see maiden trip in the boat

It will be very soon!

How good is the boat looking! Great to see you pumping up the spearfishing club, the clubs are just such good places for people to get involved, usually a couple of nice crew involved, salt of the earth 😉. Always look forward to seeing a bloke going out on a shark biscuit, you could at least take some condiments with you 🤣🤣. Loved the Blue Bone footage, sweet fish crew. Well Done! Cheers for sharing the update, jealous as hell! Dive safe, have fun! 🤿🐟👍👌🍻

I’ll definitely be giving it another crack, it’s a great shore dive option as a bit of a home base on the water as well.

Another great video mate. Really enjoy this stuff. Goes to show you don't need a big boat to score a good feed, just some skill 😂

Skill and a bit of luck. Took a bit of looking around before we landed the first fish haha. Thanks for checking the vids out mate.

The boat is looking great, I watched them all a lot of hard work. I was thinking of getting a kayak, had a go on one in the lakes recently and was good fun. Good luck at Cloughy!!

Yeah, it’s not much better up this way mate. Looks like it calms a bit next week. Hopefully it keeps coming down for the Cloughy!

Nice spearing mate. Do many people fish that close in stuff for the blueys?

A few people do mate. Want to be on your a-game with some of the bigger models around any structure though.

How are you shore diving? Your not that much further south than Townsville. Your not worried about crocs? I shore dive here but only a very few select spots

We are pretty lucky here mate. I think we are right on the edge of having to be more concerned about it haha. There is some big resident crocs in some of the larger creek systems. They don’t tend to spend much time out of the systems. We normally get one or two sightings a year of a Croc out and about on the coast, it normally heads into our main harbour for a look and back out again. I’ve got a vague memory of it hanging around our local surf spot last year and I’m pretty sure they shot it…

hey mate another great vid i was wondering how to clean my haines gunnel rubber because its turned yellow from the sea hwo did you do it

Hey mate, I haven’t actually put it on yet. I’ve got a roll of new rubber there to put on next week.

Hey mate would you mind sharing the cost of having your canopy powder coated? Looking to do the same. Cheers

@ExhaleAdventures

Hey mate, I didn’t get an itemised break down. But I was quoted $6-700 for the canopy, seat frames, duckboards and a couple smaller brackets. If they had to do any additional sanding etc it was going to bump the price up.

Great video. Are you still looking at teaching spearfishing? My 16 year old boy is keen, has gear

There isn’t anything planned for the immediate future mate. If your a Mackay local, get onto Mackay Downunder Spearfishing Club. There is plenty of experienced spearos willing to take people out with all levels of experience.

hey mate did you get a new hard top on the tinny?

Nah Lonnie, that was the canopy from the haines. I just sat it up on the tinny so it was up off the ground haha.

You using her for cloughy?
