I've seen it twice at Hastings, both were with that boat latch ( not the boat catch which is positive locking) they were pulling out, ramp a bit bumpy, jumped the boat latch and off she came !!! ouch ( no safety chain connected). I totally rely on the boat catch, drive on, click, and drive out, neve...

Hi Sinsemilla, cobby is right about the "correct" way to seal it, and don't forget to seal all the edges. I will note though, that I have heard others seal off there floors with a decking oil believe it or not, and very successfully. But, even though it is going to be covered with carpet, ...

Yes, there was a video a while back of a bloke fishing in his tinnie off Altona, while the 4-5 meter White decided to check him out.

I'm quite surprised at the building work going on in Forster at the minute, yesterday in port Macquaurie seemed to be the same . It would definitely be a bit harder getting employment in ones field in places like tho...

I'm currently, lying on a recliner chair on the balcony of a 3 floor apartment in Forster-Tuncurry. Wondering, what the bloody hell am I suffering Melbourne winters for !. What an absolute fishing mecca up here, simply beautiful. We drove up to port Mcquarrie yesterday to have a look, 25 degrees, a ...

Hi Kimtown, For what it's worth, The V19's were a great boat, as you say, in its day. The other problem is, you either buy an un restored one and do it yourself, or you take a huge punt and rely on the word on the quality of someone elses work, I did that and had it professionally inspected and got ...
