June 23, 2006 - Really excited
Well after much begging, promising to do more housework, cajoling and, to put it bluntly, a lot of brown nosing....I finally convinced Little Darlin to let me buy a boat!!!! Yes the Big Fella is sorted!
My brother (a keen fisherman) and my father (always wanting to help the boys out) have gone thirds with LD and I in a boat. It's a 5.5 metre Ramco tinny with a 70 horse Evinrude pushing her through the water.
We bought it second hand so it only cost us $5k each.
I am so excited and promise to post some pics once we get it back from the shop.
Unfortunately my bro and I blew the engine up the other week but it came with a one month warrantly so we are getting new pistons and a head gasket fitted for nothing.
Hopefully this will see me doing some more diving in this no-shore diving city of Auckland.
Kakete for now
