    One sure way to turn a nice looking job to mud is to use the mud gun so today that's what I did and welded out the hull and transom.....Bloody migs are messy pricks of things that never look nice.

    Should do all that except maybe the last bit, Pretty sure the 8 will plane me and a net....it should plane fairly slow being wide and flat but only one way to find out, Probably upgrade to a 15-20hp.

    your 8 struggled to plane with you, me and a large bucket of shellfish if i recall and that was with the special prop you fit especially for me?

    Yea the 10footer just doesnt have the area on the water with which to support the weight and becomes a displacement hull.....goes almost scary fast with just me and nothing else tho.

    our 13' fryan will plane with just my fat 115kg arse in it AS LONG AS I get to centre of boat(that's with 6hp merc).....it might be worthwhile fitting seat or having movable one that you can use on your own,a hunk of pvc pipe fits snuggly over outboard throttle which allows me to control boat from forward,this also works better for standing up to peer into water to check depth as you travel along.very tidy job...as to your pontoons turning into bomb if filled with polystyrene...you COULD use bean bag filler which would allow you to blow them out with compressed air if needed.

    You could buy a shit load of oars and hire some slaves for that money VC.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
