If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!
Especially when you can see them!

Thats a lot of boat for the money, just for comparison, 32.5K gets you a 4.6m quintrex renegade (unpainted), 60 hp yamaha 4stroke, and trailer, no electronics of any kind.

Re: The old Girl Rascal II
you should have posted it as ,,FISH Magnet,, give away
At 35k I don't think you'll get a better rig , Just a great long range all weather boat .
Good luck with the sale mate.

Re: The old Girl Rascal II
I showed the wife, told her somehting like this would be our next boat. She asked why I want to sell the boat I already have?
Why cant wives understand that there isn't just one boat for all tasks?

Re: The old Girl Rascal II
Can't believe it's still on the market at that price. Especially given it's well reported ability to go long range and back safely. I thought that a couple of younger blokes would have pitched in and grabbed it by now, especially with a Honda in the back!

Re: The old Girl Rascal II
Went to the Tiwis on the weekend and had a ball, have a look at the post for the pics
did just over 380km and used 220 litres so pretty good at around 1.7kpl.
we cruised up a few creeks and had a ball catching pan sized Goldies, Jacks and Barra, she only draws 1.2 metres and we were able to get into and out of the creeks easily on Friday arvo just before the low tide.
Had a bottle of Sparkling each night and watched the sunset
Throwing in a 120litre good quality esky with the boat as well as a few other bits and pieces.
Planning another trip to the Perons in a fortnight, might have a spare spot, so anyone who wants to have a ride let me know ASAP
cheers
