thinking of the next ptoject... had an idea of a larger yacht maybe one that i could change seats to go from a single to a double? maybe out of wood?
any comments?

I have seen pics of blokarts running in tandem- hooked behind each other like a train.

I have also seen a pic of a blokart with an esky trailer behind it too.

(esky= beer cooler)

esky trailer feels like the more sensible option to me- handy if the wind dies down

Yeh Paul thats a great idea!!!

No one has had their bum in it yet as Pink Lake filled up in March for our "festival of the wind" and I was too busy learning to sail, when we got back onto it.
I wasn't confident enough to cart other peoples "carpet grubs" about with my limited skills.

Now you have bought it to my attention I will certainly sort it out though.

Thanks Chook

Dont know if you aussies know the car but its a 68
muscle car... so any way after we get it going .. the new yacht will be next on the bench...
thanx for the encouragement

Your'e talking about one of these. Wasn't a hard top one of these featured in "The Fast and The Furious" movie??




This car here which you call a Pontiac GTO was originally released in Australia as the Holden Monaro and actually a two door version of the Holden Commodore which originated from the German Opel.



It was produced because of popular demand to "bring back the Monaro" which was a uniquely Australian car made by General Motors Holden in the late 60s and early 70s. The GTS version was produced in sufficient numbers to qualify for entry in the Bathurst production car races of that era.

The example below is for sale for A$160,000.
