Great review👍

Thats a brilliant information straight to the points. Thanks mate🙏

Cool little boat

Have a shot of whiskey every time you say "ya know"

The Australian Fur Seal (Cynophoca dorifera) is a species of fur seal that resides in the coasts of Australia, it is known to coexist with its closest living relative, which is the New Zealand Fur Seal (Cynophoca forsteri).

Hi mate where did you get the wavebreaker?

Can’t go wrong with a 17

Good on you mate

Mate this has to be one of the best educational videos I've watched, thank you so much! Which would you say is the safer option to get across to bass strait barwon heads or the rip. I've been fishing the bays in my 5.2 signature for a while now but never attempted a bar crossing before would be awesome to hear back from you!

What Bimini are you running mate?

Such a great video...good solid advice. Thanks

where can i find that chart you used? cant find it anywhere

It's not choppy without white horses, give that hainesy some stick in the rough that's where they shine over the rest.

good point update tracks

Thank you for posting your video and for telling it straight how it is. Awesome boat mate

Beware - I recently got a new plotter, and C-MAP charts. For this area they are no good. Heaps of missing details, and no channel, or lateral marks in the river. I asked C-MAP about it, and they said it’s because they are lacking detail in that area. Sheesh!

Hey bro do you get wet on the boat sometimes

Awesome boat and motor, and also you guys with the courage of Hercules diving without fear of Jaws 🦈🇦🇺🇦🇺

Awesome hull mate

Torrlets

Massive thumbs up!!!

Thank you as there isn't a lot up about 17V Haines working on one myself cheers.

That was definitely not 15-20 knots more like 15-20kmh lmfao

Should post on old school Haines hunter ( face book) I Belvedere you are fairly accurate

hey mate, great video. I know if your not sure don't go out. But there is only one way to learn what your boat is capable of i guess. I have a 5 meter boat. Half cab. I have been out in more than 1 meter chop , in port phillip. The waves were closer together so was rockin a little bit. I have been out once in a 6.2m boat out of W.P bay, and noticed the swell was a lot higher but it wasnt as rough as in the bay itself. Waves were spread out more. What sort of conditions would be recomended if i ever did bring her out? Of coarse safety is number one. No fish is worth dying over may be a stupid question for some, but we all had to start from somewhere. Btw, great video.

Watch out for cray pots. At low tide the ropes loop quite a long way. Easy to tangle motor.

have you got the coordiantes of the shallow offshore reefs and wrecks?

I'll do extra few miles and ill stick to Queensclif boat ramp

good vid mate, I did 128nm the other day and used 124L with same motor on a 6m hooker pro fisherman c/c with 2 adults averaging about 22knots.

Haha awesome work! what a day on the water!

Awesome video cheers brother

Absolutely brilliant mate no bullshit and all the important stuff you need without any fluff. Glad I watched this before I headed down.

Nice boat

Well put together and informative video man. Good to see it being used the way Haines intended

Best vid on KZbin, I’m looking at buying one of these and this is almost everything I wanted to see

Nice boat buddy, I have a v19r I think it is with a 150 johnson ocean pro. Trying to get it in the water.

Great video mate! what's the weather forecast on that day? This is what I'm stuck with... figuring out weather forecast to go out on Portland.... that kind of chop... is at the limit of what we could handle I think... BTW... newbie boatie here... appreciate your videos mate... keep them coming...

Would love to go for a dive with you blokes some time have all my own gear and keen to catch a tuna.

Hey mate love your boat iv just purchased a 17r and was wondering what size bimini you have

mind if i ask how much ? for the boat ? looking to buy a boat this year.

Awesome fish mate!!! Do you have instagram?

Great video fella's. Thanks!

Good vid mate! How Heavy is the hull only? V17l and v17r????

Very good video man. there is a lost of common sense and important and very useful information in this video. Highly recommend for people boating the barwon river especially if you are unfamiliar with the aria. Good stuff mate hope to see mor videos like this
