new boat LINDSEA

[cocomonkey19k]

well me phill and chris went out today even tho the fog was thick. we thought about heading south of shields pier but when we got past the piers it was abit rough so we headed back in. fished about 100yrds in from the end of tynemouth pier with not even a knock then moved to shields side and fished for about an hour without a knock. on the way to the launch ramp we decided to stop in between the pier and the groyne about 300yrds from the beach droped lines down and waited about 5 mins back up and changed bait droped again and bang bang bang fish on reeled in to find my first codling on my first boat on my first trip out it was only 3 1/2lbs really enjoyed the day and the other lads will say the same we all love boats lol

Well done mate, hope the weather improves so you can get further out and keep catching

 

[The Great Wallsendo]

Only 3.5lbs?...that's a good fish mate ...especially considering you were within spitting distance from the shore

Nice one on getting out - like Keith says hope the weather improves and you get out further next time

conditions aren't looking good for this weekend

 

[phill_itofish]

yeah your not wrong, but to be fair i wouldnt trust a long ranger forcast

Lindsea used to be moored next to me at St Peters until earlier this year. Owned by a guy who worked on the rigs. Never did get to see him. Looks a good solid boat. How does it shift with the 10hp? being displacement that should be adequate to push it along nicely.

 

[Gaverick]

Not bad for only 300 yards from shore.

slow mate im gonna buy something like a 40hp as 10hp only does about 6knots. i also need to get the power washer on her as she dont look liked she had been cleaned for a while lol

 

[mark]

If its adisplacement hull 40hp isn't going to make it that much faster. You might get 10 or 12 knots max. But you'll use stacks of petrol trying to get her up on the plane.

 

[cocomonkey19k]

what would you reccomend mate as im looking on ebay for decent size engines and there aint many about ive looked for 60hp but the price is a joke

 

[Alfie]

Marks right, I would check it out first. I'm sure your boat has a displacement hull. If so there is a maximum hp you can run too. After that the extra power just drags your back end down with no extra speed. The hull shape can only physically push so much water ahead of it. I had a Sea Nymph which was a similar shape and the ideal for that, I was told was 25hp.
Might save you a bit of cash.
