 Pull up, pull it all out the car, 20 minutes on the pump, and hey presto you've got a boat. She's a Honda 3mtr inflatable, ally floor and inflatable 'v' keel. With a Honda 5hp 4 stroke. I thought she would be perfect for a spot of trolling and spinning. What do you guys think? |

Folly indeed. MY engine's sweet as a nut, but then i personally really rate HONDA.(had their bikes for years). Starts first pull and runs on vapour. iIt is brand spankers though.

hey buddy I run a 11ft and 15 yamy off of hurst, there great when your short of space/mooring, I fish off mine all the time and when the tide flattens out often venture in to the run/race and drift a little...
Don't know where i'd be without mine, if you ever venture around yarmouth/hurst arm / race, lookout for us, bright red with a 15, come say hello.
Had my first (sizeable) bass of the season from it last weekend, still struggling off the beach!
I would reccomend a handheld VHF (and course) if you havn't already... and just watch the tides they turn quick as does the swell...!
Mobile phones work any where you'd take it, but no good for contacting near by boats if you come unstuck, done our share of helpouts too...
One usefull tip, I use the lid of a cool box, (that i also use as a tackle box) but I use it on the floor as a bait tray and somewhere to store hooks, lures while under way... saves them flapping about, or just let out a couple meters and "trawl" them.
But yea, get yourself some kind of tray to leave your sharps in...
see you around.

Brilliant Ks, nothing I like better than poking around with lures from a small boat. Some decent fishing when you come out of the river as well.

Slipster is the man, I'm still learning, but if you sit in the car park on Culver with a pair of bins you will see all the marks from Culver to the Nab, there were 9 boats on Bembridge ledge last Sun I'm told the bream have arived which of course means closely followed by the bass.
