Check out my Ride

[matthew2]

This is my first boat that I have owned . It is set up spinning and Trolling .
It has got front and rear casting decks,44p thrust Watersnake ,Hummingbird Fishfinder. Last thing I want to do is install a live bait well I am going to use a 80litre esky ! or is to big .

Sexy little boat, will be a good little utility boat.

[duffman]

been looking at getin little punt . this is first one that have realy liked look of , good buyy . does canopy come off/on easy ?

[matthew2]

YA it comes off and on in about 40 sec to easy onastly for river and lauching off banks I would recomend 3.5 OR 3.85 in size mine is a 4 metre and can be a handfull in some situations !

[crabcrusher]

Well done Matt, looks like a great rig, with a great finish. I'm sure it will get you out onto some decent fish

Just put a bit of thought into the livewell placement, it can change the whole ride of the boat.

Cheers Nick

yeah i have the 385 and it takes about 30secs at the ramp getting it off and on its an abosolute dream,

matt how hard was it mounting the leccy, wht battery are you running and how long do you get from it? and what are they worth? does the 44lb push it along ok? im thinkin about the same for my 385..

[evilnev]

G`day ,very tidy nice boat

[Emo]

Schmick little rig Matthew, I dare say we'll see you out and about the CBD one of these days.

[matthew2]

Mounting the leccy is not to hard but just time consuming and a bit fiddely as for the battery it is a 75 amp deep ciycle and my outboard charges it so I have had no issues of flat battries . The 44pthrust leccy pushes it along no worries plenty of power even against tide running out cant beet the price of it . The running time is hard for me to estimate , I used it about 3 hours of use and no issue of lack of charge the battrey cost $230 . IF you need help to install PM me

[Danmaso]

did u get a charge kit installed on your motor? i have the same motor and got the charge kit put on does it actually work? what sort of battery is it?

cheers

[bonscottfan]

awesome looking rig u got there mate hope u get some monster fish out of it-good hunting

[matthew2]

Ya it does work I put a multy metre to the ends of the wire and got a voltage reading just over 12 volts , the battrey is a 75 amp deep cycle .

[Danmaso]

ill have to give mine a test...!! cheers

[Juggs]

you will need to get a charger for the leccy battery as the outboard will not fully charge it, and possiby damage it depending on the output

a 3 stage with float charger is about 100 bucks and should have a 6-12amp rating

[matthew2]

Where do you get this charger from ?
How does the charge unit maybe rec the battrey ?I am new to all this !
