Each to their own but I find a fish bag under the front deck ran horizontally is a great option to an esky taking up floor space. The front locker I put 2x10L jerry's and a cast net. 3 do fit perfectly. I just use a woollies cool bag for my drinks. It's squishy and fits under the hatch. My balance isn't the best due to a brain injury, so I prefer a clear deck to minimise trip hazards. Boats are very personal to the fisherman/captain...
Awesome stuff man. Can definitely relate to the never ending tinny upgrades. Gotta really enjoy that sweet spot of a few months when everything is done and set up just how you want it because once you finally get there things start to break and gotta be re done haha. Sick boat bro!
Hi Mick, I really enjoyed your video, and will be watching with interest when you upgrade the prop. My F60 (26 hrs) could also do with a different prop. The dealer put a 111/2 x 13 and it gets around ok, but only 5200 rpm when trimmed to the sweet spot. It's pushing a Savage 455 with up to 60 lts of fuel onboard, so think a 12 pitch may get a bit more or even an 11. It's so good on fuel though, i've added fuel saver to help keep it fresh.
Hi Mick, ended up buying the anchor well and the Fast Tail based on your recommendation, and am rapped with both. I have a new quintrex 460 renegade with a 75hp Yammie on the back as well as 2xAGM batteries on the back which made her very bum heavy and the anchor well is awesome as a casting deck. Regards Col
If it starts to change the exhaust note and idle funny you will have little pebles jammed up in the fuel cooler pipes in behind the plenium chamber, just need to remove the little cooling pipes and back flush the pebles out, common problem with the yammys and creek fishing, they make there way up through the water intake cheers..
Hi Mick, love your content, I am in WA now but lived in mckay for 8 years, I ran the 440 renegade with a 60 yam and loved it, when loaded i ran an 11g and lite ship ran a 12g which would be perfect for your set up, you should see around 5800 to 5900 rpm with a load wich will be perfect. !!!
Hey, Nice set up on the boat. I’ve been setting up my little 420 renegade and with the fuel tank capacity I was able to get a 97Lt fuel tank custom made up as I ripped out the 50lt that came with it because I was doing heaps of offshore stuff on tuna and didn’t want to carry Jerry’s with Me. So you will easily be able to get 50lts under the floor.
Great video: I'm always interested to pick up tips for making my boat more useable. Ive got an older (now discontinued) Garmin & I have to say I love it. 👍
Hi Mick Great video, love the mods that you have done, the boat is looking trick, looking to change out my tank for an under floor unit as well, do you know which tank you are going to use?
I haven’t really looked into it to be honest mate, since I’ve got the Haines and it’s so economical I prefer that comfort even for island runs these days.. the F60 is epic on fuel so a 25L tank and a spare 5L jerry gets me almost a 100km range for coastal runs..
Hey mate, did you ever consider getting the bigger tiller models? I'm looking at the 460/ 469 tillers just for the space and doing overnight fishing trips
Boat bought. Boat sitting beside house. Boat bought sitting beside house 12mths have passed outboard needs serviced or sold & buy new or second 🖐. Had enough of off the bank not being able to get to where i wanna get to without swimming

Mick your boat is a weapon! Thanks for the run through. Some damn good ideas there. I love the stainless skid… and the catty marbles ;)
Thanks John, appreciate your kind words bro 🍻 if you’re even coming through Mackay let me know 🙌🏻

Awesome vid mate. I have a 420 Renegade and this has given me heaps if ideas. Thanks so much!
Awesome mate, thanks for the support 🙏🏼

I’ve upgraded the gearbox now to a box of the 70hp so I’m swinging a bigger prop again 😅

You won’t look back with those purchases 👌🏻 congrats on the new rig!

Your correct, if it idles high the thermostat can be buggered too. Fuel economy turns to shit as well.

Mate that anchor ⚓ well looks mint.
Thanks man, I couldn’t stand that dead space up on the nose!! Stoked with it 👌🏻
Hey,
Nice set up on the boat.
I’ve been setting up my little 420 renegade and with the fuel tank capacity I was able to get a 97Lt fuel tank custom made up as I ripped out the 50lt that came with it because I was doing heaps of offshore stuff on tuna and didn’t want to carry Jerry’s with Me.
So you will easily be able to get 50lts under the floor.
Yeah 50 will be good, that’ll do me fine 👌🏻
Great vid mate. Just wondering where and how you’ve set up your switch panel need ideas for my boat
It’s on the front of the rear cast deck behind the driving seat 👌🏻
Looks sick, keen to see the new tank and EVA setup!
Ive got a 50 litre tank under my floor in my renegade 440 with a f60 on it and I can run around all weekend on one tank with some to spare.
Yeah the 25 does what I need and it’s easy enough to carry a jerry, next tinny I get will be a custom build so I’ll do that then 👌🏻

Hey Bud , cool to see your mods , I got one as well bought it this time last year , except side console. Been super happy with it.
Another mod is you can pull out a bit in your intake so you can go in shallow water and you can choo up sand and mud and it wont get cloged
Sounds interesting, I’m forever digging the sand out of the tell tale..
I just realised I hadn’t subscribed, merry Christmas mate, and tight lines for the new year 🤙
You will love the 12g prop !!!, thanks for the content..
Nice set up Mick. Where did you say you got the Skeg guard from.
Looking good mate. Looking forward to you doing a review on the sounder
I hope Andy and bowly approved it'll be awesome to see when you find tune that livescope
love it! lesgooo Tide Apparel
Haha love it, cheers bro 🍻
Nice rig bud, have a similar setup bug mine is a bluefin cheers
Very handy sized boat regardless of brand!
Stainless solas 12G will have you smilling when offshore in the bluewater
Hi Mick
Great video, love the mods that you have done, the boat is looking trick, looking to change out my tank for an under floor unit as well, do you know which tank you are going to use?
great vlog and have a great new year .
Mean setup 👍👍
Hi Mick ,who’s making or supplying your underfloor tank ; does it come as a kit, thanks Greg
I haven’t really looked into it to be honest mate, since I’ve got the Haines and it’s so economical I prefer that comfort even for island runs these days.. the F60 is epic on fuel so a 25L tank and a spare 5L jerry gets me almost a 100km range for coastal runs..
Hey mate, did you ever consider getting the bigger tiller models? I'm looking at the 460/ 469 tillers just for the space and doing overnight fishing trips
Quick question Mick, the clamp that’s holding your Livescope down near where the the Transducer is, where did you find the clamp? Cheers
nice setup, but whoever welded that anchor well in needs to get off the tools far from weld porn
Shut up
sick mick
How many hp is that outboard? Did you say 3km per litre of fuel? That seems like way too much!
It’s a 60 mate, I get 75km for a 25L tank
Yewww!
Yewww 😎
Do you find 55lb minn kota powerful enough for that rig or are you using 80lb?
Is that a 2x4 bt50 you are using to launch the boat at the start
Yeah, they are catfish eggs. They are mouth brooders.
Cool hey, I’d never seen it before..
