    Nice one boys. Would love to see a video covering what you took and how you fit 4 blokes worth of gear in one boat, especially taking swags. Have done a bit of boat based camping in the past and space has been a struggle with more than 2 people 👍🏻

      Cheers mate!
      Yeh we always forget to film that while we are out there. Will put it on the list for next trip.
      The swags do make it hard but there is plenty of room in front of the console so they all go up there. Then we just limit ourselves to 4 expedition134 boxes and pack as light as we can. We use a lot of hiking style products to save weight and space like the Alton hiking chairs and dehydrated meals.

    Great vid lads. I’d recommend the heading sensor upgrade for your new minnkota head. Adds a few more features.

      Cheers mate!
      We run two lead acid start batteries at the back.
      And then a 24v lithium Enerdrive battery for the Minn Kota and Engel up the front.
      The front battery charges off a 24v 30amp Enerdrive dc2dc. Which converts the 12v alternator to 24v 👍

    8:40 It's funny that big companies want global sales, but you have to buy from middle-men to buy what you want. Why they just can't offer the same thing here beats me, or at least just sell direct to the customer.
    10:04 is exactly why they don't want you to have options. DIY upgrade instead of having to buy a whole new unit.
