Re: Good place for newbie to practice outboard operation

I used to have a 3.5mtr inflatable but I had a 10hp motor on it. It was fast and very stable. I wouldn't go out in the bay with an electric motor, go to Werribee and launch at the boat ramp but go up the river, not into the bay, you have 6k's of river to practice in

Re: Good place for newbie to practice outboard operation

Thank you all for the advice. I will certainly try out the Werribee river to see how it goes. I’ve actually passed the boating license test but still no experience what so ever. My difficulty now is that my social circle here in Australia is still kind of small. Thus, it would be highly appreciated...

Buy 4 meter tin can if you have not purchased a boat.
