not sure what size esky this is but fitted the hole quite well

I grabed some extra loops from wavedance and have now put 4 extra loops to hold the esky down
so far it works a treat room for baits, cold drinks and room for the catch on the way home

Haha that makes Dad's effort look pathetic! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'll show him your pics and we'll get him an esky and some rod holders! That's a great mod - The gummies will be shaking in their boots now :D

Thanks Bilby. The sounder is actually a portable Humminbird 160x - Cheers
OOOPS so it is, i did read that. :oops: As i was saying those Humminbirds are great for the money. :lol:
Na looks like you have it sorted, i actually was going to get a Swing about 6yrs ago, Billy bob watson (a well known yakker from the sunshine coast) was building swings up from scratch, they were pretty awesome at the time, as no one had anything like them, he still uses the Swings today and gets some awesome fish out of it, worth Googling his name and very very helpful on the swing yaks.

Hey Trav a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do.
My preference will always be for screwing! :D
Glad you had a good and productive time and looks a great setup.
I did my own cutting on the weekend and made up my new kayak's trolley, but I missed the Berkly lures on Saturday - all sold by mid afternoon.
