Great review mate, looks like there’s heaps of room ! I’m looking at exactly the same for offshore, bay and fresh. Even to tow up to Bermi and head to the Island 👌

Nice boat mate. I'd love one of these. What sized shed is that you have your beast housed in?
@ColonelMerkin4 жыл бұрын
Great review mate. Ive got a slightly older 460 and love it. my only suggestion is maybe put some eva foam in those side pockets as well. the guys who serviced my boat said it wasnt great to have metal objects (sinkers, lip grips, knives etc) in contact with the pockets or the hull as it'll speed up corrosion...
@markwhitford4 жыл бұрын
Oh yeah that’s a great tip! I’ll do that for sure!
@450xman4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the video Mark, i`ve just ordered a 460 myself and can`t wait to pick it up. I might have to copy the grip idea up the front of your boat I think. Cheers

Hey mate, love the detail you go into and that eva foam on the bow is a game changer. Quick one, with your 55lb electric motor, how many hours of use do you get say in the dams vs in the bay/offshore with current etc? Trying to decide if I should go a 55lb or 80lb for my 460 quinny. Thanks in advance legend!
@markwhitford3 жыл бұрын
Thanks mate! To be honest mate it’s never actually run dead on me before, and the way I fish I don’t use it much in the bay/offshore if your going to try hold current etc I’d just go the bigger one just in case but the current in the Murray etc is no worries at all with the 55
@philip4193 Жыл бұрын
Mate, you've missed a business opportunity there! You could buy up that foam in bulk, cut it up off a template to make multiple copies for the bow, dash, side pockets etc and then sell it as a complete DIY kit, just like those headliner panel kits for the Jeep Wranglers. If you have a mate at a dealership that would give you access to some boats to make templates from, you could offer multiple kits for different makes & models, lengths etc. Nice little money earner there without much cash outlay...
