CigDaze 08-26-2002 08:26 AM

Thanks for the video! :)
Looks like you guys have it goin' on down under! :D

aussie 08-26-2002 08:33 AM

Hi Bajadaze, we're getting there slowly, not a huge fast boat scene but its starting to happen,
very hard work building that boat, I had to order heaps of stuff from the USA & it would have taken ages without the internet:D :D :D ,

scarab29, I found this site while looking for boat stuff & you guys have been great with tech advice & stuff,
Most of your boats there make me real jealous !!:D :D :D :D ,

cheers,
Dave.:D

CigDaze 08-26-2002 08:37 AM

Very cool Aussie!
I noticed it's a 32' custom twin 496HO's...What exactly is it? Did you fab it from scratch or use an existing hull?

:cool:

aussie 08-26-2002 08:41 AM

Hey Bajadaze,
we got some molds locally & modified them a bit,
I've got a website on it, if you go to the "heres how we built it" section theres some info & photos, www.wankboat.com
It was a big challenge, thats for sure !!

Cheers,
Dave.:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

You guys look like you like to PARTY a little!!!!

COOL!!!

CigDaze 08-26-2002 09:02 AM

Dave,
Great site! Very cool boat!
Looks like you guys did one helluva job building the boat from the ground up...And having a good time, too, it seems! :cool:

Dave M 08-26-2002 09:12 AM

Bajadaze,thanks for the compliments, we had heaps of fun building that boat, I wanna do it again !!!, I like your motto on life !!:D :D :D :D ,

cheers,

http://www.offshoreonly.com/gallery/...e_3115-med.jpg

aussie raftups, they get very disorganised !!:D :D :D

Wally 08-26-2002 09:23 AM

Man that does look cool! I see a few different influences in that hull design...very cool indeed! :)
What kind of speeds are you guys seeing with it?

aussie 08-26-2002 09:28 AM

Hey Wally,
I think the hull is fairly similar to the 29 scarab in the running surface,
I had to have the "Miami vice" radar arch !!!!
I'm getting 72 MPH on GPS last trip out, gotta try some more props yet :D :D

cheers,
dave.

29scarab 08-26-2002 10:09 AM

Thanks for the pics!!

That raft-up looks like a train wreck!!!

:D :D

aussie 08-26-2002 06:30 PM

Hi 29scarab,
yeah, the raftups are really messy,
that one is in deep water & had maybe 4 anchors & 60 boats, eventually the whole mess drifted REAL fast & had to break up, I was on the outside luckily !! (in the old boat), one idiot had a boat which is similar to mine but a 40 footer with twin standard big blocks & he took off fast with his anchor down (all chain) & wrapped it round the drives !!!
Its still winter here so it'll be a few months 'til I get heaps of hot sheila photos on my boat,
I'll get em posted in a while !!!:D :D :D :D

Cheers,
Dave

georges 08-26-2002 07:19 PM

Hey Aussie,
Is that "wankboats" as in "wanker"?:eek: :o :D :cool:

US1 Fountain 08-26-2002 08:06 PM

Great video! The special effects (under bridge thing) was a cool touch too! Me got dizzy.

FOUNTAIN shirt huh? :D :D I knew you guys were alright.

mcollinstn 08-26-2002 08:53 PM

Sheela pix - we're waitin!!

aussie 08-26-2002 10:31 PM

Hey Georges, yep, you're right, any long & pointy boat gets called a "wankers boat" over here so I thought I'd get in first !!:D :D
US1 Fountain, I got some cigarette shirts too, I s'pose I'm like the guy with a jap cruiser bike that wears the harley shirts:cool: :cool:
mcollinstn, lotsa sheila pics will be coming in summer, might be a few months, they dont seem a keen on thongs here, except for the ones that go on your feet !!


:confused: :confused: :confused:


Cheers,
Dave.

Mark in So. MD 08-26-2002 11:28 PM

Thongs, they dont even need those, the less the better:D :D :D

Oh by the way, very cool video and boat.

aussie 08-27-2002 10:55 PM

Yeah, less is the best !!!:D :D :D :D

aussie 10-02-2002 06:48 PM

TTT
:D :D :D

Flashback 10-02-2002 07:27 PM

You gotta love the Miami Vice theme song playin in the background. :D My favorite show and had a major influence in my boating. Your boat looks cool and remind me of a Sunseeker 34.

Have fun!

Fountain38 10-02-2002 07:48 PM

Really kool video clip. I agree, more Shiela's from Aussie. You guys did agreat job building that boat. Downunder is one of our fantasy places to visit. Can we bring our CAT to play with the Vee's :)

aussie 10-03-2002 01:23 AM

Glad ya liked it Flashback & Fountain38, I'll get some new sheila pix soon enough, just in the early spring here in upside down land,
Cheers,
Dave
