For the Boaties

[IDR]

Damn I love my old boat. A 79 15' Ebbtide with a 81 Evinrude 70 on it. It sat in my back 40 for three months with old gas in it. It started right up at the ramp. It coughed and stuttered a bit after getting on plane. But once all the varnish was out it took off like a raped rabbit. 

She will do a blazing 30 MPH at wot. I never run WOT on anything for very long. So she runs at 24 mph all day long. Nope you ain't pulling a skier.

But she is set up for fishing. And does it well.

I really dig that paint scheme. It would be a great dive boat.

It's a wrap. As for Sea worthiness there is a reason why emergency services used them for decades, no turning circle but punches the swell on a cloud. It's a plate boat as well.

When we were diving all the time in Cuba, if not entering the coral reefs from shore we dove from a barrel boat. It's all about stability extracting from the deep. Plus your tired. I really like that boat. It projects a good feel. I hope that doesn't come across to wierd.

Don't be weird man

2800 blows out the width by a foot and offers a much bigger craft.

I learned many years ago that a boat is a hole in the water you throw money in.
The only boat I have now is a sit-on-top kayak. My sailboat was lost in a fire and I never replaced it. I sold the other boats when I needed money.
I’ve had more fun with that kayak than any boat I’ve been involved with. It has been in the water more often than all the others combined.

I've got a Mokai jet powered Kayak ....

This is one of the org. one piece models ....mine is a 2015 3 pcs unit, has 7hp subaru engine with elec start and depending on operator's weight can reach speeds of 20mph !!

Have to pump the piss out the pedals!   what range does it have - elements variable?

The Kiwis are right up there in plate boat manufacturers.

In Aus to tow over 2.5mts wide is oversize and to much pissing around. So Trailerable craft.

Surtees NZ, there was a split and a new team started in Aus named Bar Crusher.

Too wide for towing.

That's like the boat we fished off in Alaska.  It belongs to a friend of my brother.   It has a cook stove that he has used for heat if he sleeps on it with his dog.  Really nice craft.

Was it one of these Flyover? Selling a lot of craft.

Doesn't have pedals, guess you missed the 7hp Suburu engine and jet drive ....as for "range" Mfg claims 8hrs on tank of fuel....
