There is something so lovely about seeing people genuinely be excited about their new bit of kit. I am planning to get a Truekit 400 for my Fusos expedition build
Looks great, was a little concerned, when first seeing it, sharp knives an shark teeth, dont go well, but this looks like it would with stand a little battering from sharp objects, (just waiting to see Gary repack it in the cardboard box) looking forward to see how you go out in the sea
I was thinking of getting their boats but it only seats 1 to 2 people, which is a bummer, hopefully they make models that can seat atleast 5 in the future.
Great choice of inflatable - something on our list as a brand with a decent motor and the choice of the 20HP Tohatsu is 💯 %- great outboard and well regarded by cruising sailors. Cannot wait to see what you have planned - great to have the time and the $ to bring it all together at our age ! Would not be dead for quids!
Thanks for your comment 😊 as you saw from the video we can’t wait to run it through its paces. Oh, and you forgot one thing in life’s trifecta - time, money snd HEALTH 🙏 Definitely agree wouldn’t be dead for quids!
I found using an 18V blower (I use an AEG) is the best way to get the bulk of the air into them. Also switch it around and suck air out for a tighter pack down.
looks like a nice boat and its all very well pumping it up and setting it up, quite easy by the looks of it...but whats the deflation and pack down like? i feel it would be only good if you were in a spot for maybe a minimum of 3 or 4 days. dont get me wrong, I love what i see with this and it would totally suit my situation with my travels
Check out a later video “Stranded in the Australian Outback” At the very end you can watch the pack down. Really easy to do! If you had a few hours on the water it would be worth doing in one day 😀
Very cool... wonder if it could be mounted or hung on a "frame/brackets" on the back of the MAN - without obscuring the lights, camera, or number plate - even for short trips relocating to/from the water?? DIY project for Master Garry! Hoping you have a grand time playing with your new toy!!

Thanks so much for your comment. Hope you have lots of fun and enjoy it!!! We might even see you on the road somewhere 😀
@@teamd-tour as of early next year, there’s a very real chance that we will! I’ll definitely say hello if we see you somewhere.
@@fatchunk3678 FANTASTIC!!

It seems to be as tough as nails! No chance of repacking in the cardboard box, strictly a bag job from now on 😀 Stay tuned for its maiden voyage.

Thanks for your comment. Our boat which is the Discovery 400 seats up to 6 people with a load capacity of 700 kgs

Thanks for the tip. Will definitely try this👍
Hi, wind can be a problem. Get the feel of it in safe waters .
Thanks. Will do!

It probably could be mounted but getting it up there would be awkward 🤔
You got a dam
💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍wow soo nice
So long as a croc doesn't bite it mate😊
It’s croc proof. What could go wrong???😱
@@teamd-tour l0l
Always knew you were full of wind😂
Looks great Gary, can I ask where your planning on carrying the boat and motor in the Commander?
Good question! We're going to be towing the trailer we took to Victoria's High Country and stow them in that 😂😂😂
I would have run it at home prior to taking out on the water. Did it come with rabbit ears to flush the engine.
What could go wrong? 🤣 no, it didn’t come with rabbit ears. Had to make a dash to Whitworths😀
Will it go on top of the Ineos
Yep, but not inflated of course
Gary, ?I'm sure you'll fins a way to pump it up using the truck!
Did think of using the air system on the truck but it's way to slow the little garden blower did the trick !!
Great white sharks, love inflatable boats.
We'll keep an eye out for them, then!!😱
Name it shark bait😂
