Fibreglass, you wont go back to ally RB, nice setup. Just need cover to go to trailer all round & shadecloth underneath to stop stone chips.

Hi Blinky
How much prep is involved to get a wrap?. Will it stick to a painted hull?
Ghound
Depends how much you want to spend........I pulled all the old stickers off and cleaned the residue myself, it saved me quite a few hours in labour $$$.
They'll do it if you don't want to.
No problem sticking to existing paint, any deep gouges would need to be blended.
Plate sides give the best results.

Cat has gone to WA so a new tinnie has been bought in to replace it. Still yet to hit the wet stuff.

Picked up this Black Arrow from a bloke in Port Hedland last weekend, it's 6.5 overall and built like a brick sh**house, a bit of a fiddle with the electrics and some carpet she's a good thing.
The name on it is Code 227 and apparently started out its life on Groote Eylandt owned by a policeman on the island, I'm told that "code 227" means "overtime"
.
Happy wife happy life

It’s been a long time since I posted due to a lack of fishing and getting my own business off the ground.
I sold my old cruise craft some time ago and have had a few tinnies since but always missed going offshore in comfort and I seen this cruise craft explorer up for sale so I snapped it up just in time for the dry season.
It’s a 550 explorer with a 150 4 stroke Yamaha.
Can’t wait to troll the teasers out the back off of Dundee

G'day everyone longtime lurker and first time poster. Just bought a 2019 Quintrex topender 450 SC. 60hp Yamaha, four stroke, motor guide xi5 up front and a Lowrance HDS Live 7. Plan to fish around the Rose River and adjacent areas for Barra, jacks, Goldies etc etc. Had a Stacer Northern Fisher before this one but sold it when my job took me to Central Australia. Looking forward to its arrival.
