Reading this and looking at the pics brought back all the memories of the day I picked up my Outback (about 14 months ago).
The emotions still run strong - you will remember this day, trust me.
I trust your first outing is a success - good luck !!

Knowledge is what you get when you read the instructions.
Experience is what you get when you don't.

Any good livewell build requires at least 3 redesigns and a minimum of 5 trips to Bunnings .
