Time to start the pimping
Went into AKS today and picked up the new beast, the 2015 outback.
I was very surprised to see how different everything is on this model and how hardly anything from my 2012 model outback will fit or work in the same location.
So fair bit of replanning where I put things but there are so many improvements I just cant wait to get it wet and camouflaged with squid ink and fish guts :)

I'll put up a few more picks as I go ahead with the pimping but here it is probably for the last time all shiny.

What is it with Red Outbacks? Do they go a lot faster or something ? :D
Looks awsome Jaryd.
Hope it gives you as good a service as the old one did.
Cheers,
Davo.

Cheers guys,
Took it for its maiden voyage and I'm pretty stoked with it.
I'll give a bit more info when I'm not at work etc but here is a sweet pic I took of her with some initial pimping.

Haha mate they are by far the safest colour in my opinion and visible for miles + red just rocks.
The new red is even brighter and easier to see than the old red hobie colour.
I've got to wear my sunny's to look at it even on an overcast day just like in that pic.
