The new 4.3 m tabs bullshark- start to Finnish

[Fish-Tec]

Hi all

I am just about to head down to the Gold Coast to pick up my me boat - it is the all new Tabs Bullshark in 4.3m . I am going the standard boat out of the factory fitted with front and rear casting platforms, mini console and rod locker. The boat will be powered by a 50Hp Yamaha four stroke and set up as a tiller steer to give me a bit more deck space. Front casting deck will feature a Humminbird 698 side imaging sounder gps combo, 55lb I pilot and Hydrowave . On the console will be the new Humminbird Onix 10 inch and batteries will be charged at home by a Minn Kota on board charger. The boat is shaping up to be an absolute weapon and I can't wait to have it sitting in my garage - here are some of the pics as she was getting built. I will add more as I install everything

Regards

It's a beautiful boat, one question though-will a 50hp tiller steer spend it's time trying to wrench your arm off till it gets on the plane?

Great looking boat mate. I am sure she'll fly with the 50

No mate the 50 is fine - I had the same motor on my previous boat and it was spot on . I never really noticed any pull on the tiller before - the key is to find the trim spot where you lift the bow of the boat to maximise economy and still keep the prop thrust to a minimum . I was doing over 70 kms a day up here in Gladdy regularly up through the creeks and definately did it with ease.
