    And you thought bikes were a money pit! Boats are a hole in the water you throw $50 notes in! I should know I have had my boat for 12 years and they seem to cost money even when you don’t use them.

    Still, that is a nice boat mate. Get out there and enjoy it with the family.

    well it only cost me fuel today but after finally getting all the necessities i.e boat licence, trailer & boat rego swapped to n.s.w and also into my name i was fully legal today and had my first day on the water got to tell you mick me & the boys left here at 6.30(the boat ramp is 500 meters at the end of my street for the williams , hunter river) we went fishin and a bit of a look around till 12 and come back picked the missus up and towed them around on the tube till about 5 oclock .There snoring there heads off at the moment, had an absolute cracker of a day

    Looks good Al they certainly worth the effort to get the kids out in summer and by the way thinking of slipping out to goanna trax at the end of the week , only by myself want to sort the new ktm out ohave only rode it down the street and back been busy wuith everything else

    the boys love it rocket i ve got a triangl tube and i got this other one over christmas a bodyglove one it looks like a big surfmat with bat wings on it joe loves it wish i could get on it,
