Rayglass DIY Cut and Polish- Epic results!
It's winter time, the weather is cold and wet- so I took the opportunity to give the Rayglass 650 some much needed TLC. Watch as I groom the boat including a cut and polish to get that new boat shine! I also remove some waterline stains and even sand out some imperfections in the gel coat. This is a project you could do at home at minimal cost but makes your boat look a million dollars!

    Dude's, I've seen this a little late. I gave my Penn rods and reels away just a couple of months ago. I could have seen them go on. There's a pity right there. Ethical fishing, lovely to see and watch. How many times have you been seen by fishery officers?

    • @unableseamen3046
      @unableseamen3046 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the comment- yeah it’s pretty sad seeing the snapper get hammered. We basically don’t target them anymore and mostly go for kingfish. As for fishery officers- almost never and they NEVER check boat from marinas and I have seen some tiny snapper go on some huge boats!

    Had a 650 for a long time, I had the wet version, but I've never been in a better sea boat. In the competitions off Whitianga, we had her in some big seas miles off shore, never felt unsafe or out of her depth. Get a drogue for drift fishing mate, she'll turn in the slightest breeze and bugger off with the wind if you've got the canopy closed😅😅. Cool vid, you've got a lovely boat mate, have confidence

    • @unableseamen3046
      @unableseamen3046 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey thanks for the comment! Totally agree with you about the sea keeping… I’ve been on lots of trailer boats and some are great- but none of them feel like this boat- it feels like a mini launch. We love it so much and use it as much as well can. I can confirm a sea anchor is now on board! 😂

    • @Adogsmate4267
      @Adogsmate4267 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @unableseamen3046 Here's a tip if you don't already know. If you're planning on big seas, curtains shut stuff, tape the leading edge of the canopy to the windscreen . It saves those green ones shooting up that beautiful windscreen and getting you all wet. I've subscribed, been looking for some people in the right boat, my opinion of course 😉

    Have caught a lot of kingis in the entrance there on live baits. Not sure if it would be the same on a stick bait, but when we hook them on liveys we lead them out into deeper water with very little drag on them. Probably about 2kg. Believe it or not they generally follow like puppy dogs. I was the same as you initially, as much drag as we could handle and continually got reefed. Once we realised the trick was light drag we started catching them.

    This was great to see I'm planning a similar trip in a few weeks. Wanna rent a Mustang and drive up the Pacific Coast Highway. Hopefully the one I rented is as nice as the one you have there in the video! One question, how was parking in the bigger cities? A pain to find?

    • @unableseamen3046
      @unableseamen3046 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the comment! We absolutely loved this trip! The mustang definitely added to it- the roads were incredible. Just check the road is open all the way otherwise you may need to do the diversion that we had to do which added half a day. Parking was easy to find but not all that cheap- my advice is when booking accommodation make sure there is parking with it. San Fran we basically just parked the car at the hotel and rode the tram everywhere.

      @erocker78 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@unableseamen3046 they really were great boats. They certainly weren't given the credit they deserved in my opinion. The shape of the hull allowed them to cut through the waves and corner really well. The hulls were tough too. They could take a beating. I remember the seats were the first thing to break down but the 85 Force outboard ran well and was powerful for the 16ft vessel it was pushing. We did water skiing, tubing, and fishing with it. Awesome memories.

I don’t have a huge amount of knowledge when it comes to land based spots there, but I think any headland with good current going past will be a good start. There is a mussel farm close to shore a the man of war end of the island which could provide some natural burley. There is heaps of good rocky outcrops on the northern side as well that would definitely hold fish!

    I’m guessing Garden Cove from the opening shot. It always feels wrong going in through the little gap but it’s the right spot. Sometimes it helps to use a stern anchor depending on the wind and how many boats are in there.
