A little FURTHER NORTH
Submitted by big john on Wed, 2010-01-13 19:10
Picked up a new (used) tinny for hitting up the barra this year.
Nice clean unit that's done very little work and doesn't have a plethora of holes drilled everywhere inside it. Gotta love the quokka, but you do have to be the early bird.;)

Its about six years old. Still all the original paint on the skeg, original prop with only light scuffing on the edges of the blades.
With a 25hp I'll be able to load her up with swags etc and go camping down river with it as well which is great.

Nice pick up there John,no doubt over time scratches will appear from narrow creeks/sand banks etc.At least you will know who is to blame because she's spotless now.

Ooo....
Give you a couple of months to suss out those Barra spots mate, and then I might have to come down...
Don't imagine there'll be quite as many painteds but big muddies do taste great!

moving up there will be different for you, at least it will give you some more biteys to chase or would it be you being chased.

old turf
You wont need a couple of months to sound it out mate...Straight back into the hood and barra and Threadfin sangas for dinner.
Good to see you heading "a little further North"
