Awesome boat and setup, Mick. That is a neat, tidy and nearly perfect setup. Just the best base platform only a few changes and you have it exactly the way you want it. Congrats, mate! When you do the floor, you could do a pod extension with dive platform and a straight transom…sorry just dreaming, what an awesome find and buy! congrats ;)
Thanks mate! It’s awesome, really is a beast of a boat! Can’t wait to settle into it and work out how I want it setup! Not sure about a pod, I’ve heard mixed reports..
I watched it for a few weeks, then my shares went good and it suddenly became “in my price range”, I cashed out and then they dropped… Seems it was meant to be 👌🏻
I pulled up a GT of compatible size Darwin harbour, the charter captan cut it off and said no way bringing that menace aboard, too dangerous he said. Come to think about it my back still remembers it as bigger than yours 😅
Nice boat mate 👍that hull is a classic! Beautiful design right from the first one. I’ve had a Suzi on my tinny similar size to yours for over 10 years, just impossible to fault. Only damage I’ve done is sucking heaps of sand in trying to get back across the hinchinbrook channel at low tide. Super motor
Nobody ever regrets buying a classic hull that's in good shape - famous for a reason. I presume much of the interior was retrofitted over time - e.g. those ali seat boxes? It'll be awesome to get to know the boat, then make the changes you want. And the big banga already shows this boat's got the juju with it...well done, mate. And weird question, but how tall are you?
She was awesome out there, didn’t roll too much at all for the deep V but I did sell it on the weekend just gone to make way for a bigger boat to get out further for longer
Haha they were all good, I’ve trained my muscles up with all the cod… The hammerhead just wanted to help the cod with his barotrauma, god bless him 😅 haha thanks man!!
I was reversing back to pick it up when the shark took it, turns out the shark was his friend and took him back down cos he could see his mate had barotrauma and wanted to help 😅👌🏻
Great GT on that gear Mick and an awesome way to christen the new boat. Looking forward to seeing how the boat transforms over time.
Nice boat! I'm looking forward to seeing both the upgrades and the fishing. 👍
Thanks mate, I’ll be keeping you all posted 👌🏻
As soon as you showed the boat I had to go and change my sticky jocks. Awesome buy mate
Hahaha I’m glad I could assist in that 😂😂 cheers mate 🍻
First Cod in the boat you looked so proud :) but congrats on the boat look forward to see the changes you make and another great clip. Thanks
Haha had to happen aye 😂 cheers 🍻

Top work brother all the best
Congratulations on the sick boat mate can't wait to see more trips in it and congrats on the baby too
Thanks mate!! Big things been happening, good size boat for family and hardcore fishing without breaking the bank at the bowser!

Hahaha yeah they’re a pest when you’re not targeting them! But they do behave when their in the boat…
New toys are exciting well done mate
Chuck a big motorguide on the front, you can network it to the simrad on the nmea network 👍
Yeah might look into it down the track..
@@Micksgonefishing but also chuck a garmin gt51 on the back and use your 8412 out of the outlaw as well. Best of both worlds!

EPIC Haines mate. she's a beauty
That boat is in excellent condition and looks well looked after obviously the previous owner put some love into it.. oh not a cod😂

Yeah that’s for sure! I’m stoked with it!!
I’m 183cm 🍻
Nice vid mate, I love the evil laugh when u see the cod haha
Nice..... please You can write down about what you are useing finsging gear..
It’s in all the videos, I mention my tackle at the start 👌🏻
the canopy will catch the wind like a sale mick need a sea ancor
I went and bought one for it this morning, definitely needs it in 10 knots of breeze!!
This video is epic, nice boat 🤙🤙
So lucky to be able to call a 1.2m swell not that Good weather
nice boat, Not sure why but all the fishing videos I watch from aus, the fisherman don't use a deepwater release device?
Ripper of a boat. Those hulls are legendary. Nice GT and fingermark. Good trip. Looks like it rides nice 👍
Thanks mate, took my turn looking for boats, glad to have got one in good nick!
awesome vid thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
i got a 20 foota too very practical size boat
Yeah I agree, big enough but small enough!
How do you find the stability on the new boat out on the reefs?
She was awesome out there, didn’t roll too much at all for the deep V but I did sell it on the weekend just gone to make way for a bigger boat to get out further for longer
Nice Mick. Does it need trim tabs?
They would obviously help but I honestly don’t think they’re essential as it rides quite well as it is..
Enjoying your vids Mick, what spinning reel is that your using with the vibes?
It looks like a twin power
You slung the sea anchor on it?
I got one onboard but didn’t use it this trip as our drifts were very short due to the structure we were fishing
Haines Gang 🙌🏾😆
Nice
hard to find 19r
Yeah I’ve been hunting for a while and keeping a close eye out 👌🏻
How's your biceps after the GT fight? Sick hammerhead & congrats on bub & boat news!
Haha they were all good, I’ve trained my muscles up with all the cod… The hammerhead just wanted to help the cod with his barotrauma, god bless him 😅 haha thanks man!!
yo i like the video, but for the cod u coul'd have keep it, instead of letting it for the shark 👎👎👎
I was reversing back to pick it up when the shark took it, turns out the shark was his friend and took him back down cos he could see his mate had barotrauma and wanted to help 😅👌🏻
