The new Girl Key West
Well a couple weeks ago I received the phone call that the boat was in port and on the dock ready for pick up smiles all round for me. quick stop at chivers marine to get a few things then off to freo harbour to pick up the new girl. Have to say I am very happy with the purchase of the Key West and they are built very nice. Picked her up and I could not wait to get it in the water so a quick stop at woodys and in the water she went and even got a couple nice squid on the boat to then back on the trailer she went then back to chivers it went.
I have to say a massive thanks to luke chivers and all the boys at chivers marine for there fantastic effort they did to get the boat and trailer ready for licencing. They have done a great job going over the motor making sure it was ready to go. Had a few hiccups but was expecting that but with great communication from Chivers Marine I allways knew that the boat was in great hands. If anyone has a boat they need servicing or even looking at buying a boat go see luke and chris they will help you as much they can. Thanks guys awesome job.
Also Like to thank Justin from portsea marine for organising the shipping and picking up the boat was also an awesome job your team did. Highly recommend them if anyone is importing a boat. They gave you up to date emails and hone calls on how it was going the whole way through. Justin also organised the building of my tandem trailer from petersons and what a trailer it is built very nice. Few Pics for ya............

Got in just in time mate. I
Got in just in time mate. I think this is almost the end of the USA imports with the Aussie dollar correcting itself.
Justin from Portsea has imported 10 walkarounds for me and my mates and is a absolute champ! Everyone is stoked with their boat and Justin's service.

limits
Beautiful looking rig Hayden. What would you think the upper limits of it would be sea condition wise?
Love the fact that you can fish 360 degrees.
