    New Tinny

    Here is the only decent pic I have taken of it so far.



    5.0 m Blue Fin Viking w 3mm sides and 4 mm bottom. It is basically a bare hull at this stage - needs to be fitted out.

    Engine is a Yamaha F70A tiller.

    It has done ~5500 km on the road and only ~2 hrs in the water so far. Need to change that



    EDIT: Forgot to add - I saved quite a bit by buying it in Brisbane. WA prices are $$$$$$$

    Hi Ben

    That look's awfully flat sand behind your rig and with not much water!

    Is there, any fish in that ?

    Cheers Arthur

    Noice one Ben,
    Been a long train coming!

    Now first get rid of that poxy excuse for a trailer and put her on something worthy.
    And then put a few hours on that 70 so i can get some numbers off you!

    I need WOT rpm, speed at WOT, fuel burn at that rpm would be nice too!
    Which gauges did they put in for you? The mulifunction digital ECU jobbies?

    Anyway, stoked for you mate, get her in the drink eh!
