yeah guys i got an h crate, 2 h rail tackle storage bins for the h crate (although one is on back order which sucks a bit coz it was ordered over 8 weeks ago ) i also got a sand cart, a heavy duty cart for concrete launches (rocks etc ), turbo fins, large rudder ,storage bin for the front hatch, 2x rod tubes, also got a pair of hobie roof rack pads which seem really good ......revo 13 by itself retails for $2850.00......as for the extras there the same price as what is on any dealer website, boat is also same same $$$...........
oh yeah i also got me a little hobie flag with a mini light on top, not to worried about the light because i dont really do much night fishing, having said that i still have all the safety gear from past kayaks. although i did invest in a new builge pump coz the old one was sticking a bit, better safe than sorry eh ?

Sounds like you're decked out...

Awesome work.

I'm going to try have a pre work fish this week some time and a fish on the weekend as well hopefully weather permitting if you want company.

Nice Revo James ;)
Hamish, I'm planning Tuesday am Willi or Altona if the wind predictions hold. Looks reasonable early at this point.
