20 ft Walkaround?

You mean - are there any here downunder which might suit you for use in Europe?

Hell yeah - heaps of em...

I'll find a few links for you to look at...(You'll find ours are a LOT cheaper than USA bye the time you do the currency exchange rate conversions).

More soon, stay tuned.

Cheers!

marti, why not get the best bridge builders in the world to build you a bridge to where ever you would like to fish?

marti · 07-01-2003, 08:03 AM

hello,
I think the market is big enough in europa we in Holland alone have 10.000's what we call little sea fish boats.
I am a member of two of those clubs and there are 2 thousend??(2000) members each and there are dozins??? of clubs.
It'like this;first we have strickt (bad) tow regulations and if we want to pull aboat heavier than 3000 lbs we really need a big car
and with that big car gomes the gas bill from 6 dollar a gallon.
second:in oure sea we only catch small
flatfish ,mackerel 15to 18 inch and some sea bass and cod fish (I think it's called )they can be bigger.
So we got to have it from our hollidays and can go to spain or sweden or norway etc etc but if we have a heavy truck you get the shiffers of the gas bill so we stick to basic boats witch are light weight and don't need the truck.
Fortunatly?? Ihave acar that can(and may)tow 4000 lbs so I can have a try for one off those marvelous??little walkarounds.
That's not the whole story but don't want to bore you.
your lucky you have fish boats and cheap gas so enjoy it the rest of the world is not so LUCKY with these things.
greetings from holland

but you have good soccer, rijstafel (sp), pannekook (sp), mayonaise with the chips, crazy stuff in the big city, interesting red light district, etc. you figure it out. you sure can have a lot of fun on land without the high gas bills. maybe you can tow the boat behind a train. alles van die beste (sorry about the spelling and grammer.)

What's good soccer?

If you don't want to hear the answer, don't ask the question!
