My first boat was a flat bottom punt – bright orange so Dad wouldn’t lose me, but I can’t find a picture of it 🙂

My second boat was a 3.4 mtre tinnie which I took to Burrinjuck to fish the Canberra Fisho’s ANSA convention on a box trailer – Who remembers the Friday night stew & Seargent swirl movies?

We then worked with Quintrex & Peter Flyn through Hornet Heaven at Caloundra to build a fantastic custom 475 Hornet with Mercury Opti-max 75. “The Cure 2” saw plenty of fish go over the side from lake Jindabyne & the Gippsland lakes in the South to Weipa in the North 😉
