Boat Test - the Ultimate BUSTA 420 rebuild from Tiller to Side Console - Is it a NEW boat?

The NEW version of the 420 BUSTA came up beyond my expectations, just loving the new configuration and the raised floor. Also, deployed the New MOTORGUIDE, doesn't SPOT LOCK change your life on the water...Testing it out at Taylor's Beach, one of my favorite spots on the water. Taylor's Beach was dredged a number of weeks ago...not sure if the results are all that great.

Gday mate as long as your happy thats all that matters , my anglapro was about the same setup and i loved it was sad to see it go but thats life ,if i ever get enough money ill do the same again .

I like the transformation the driving position looks good to , it ain’t no Busta anymore..

[@hkayztheoldguy]

thanks Paul...no, it's not a Busta anymore...🙂

Looks great. Looks like it may be a little more comfortable to drive with the throttle control mounted on console, rather than the side of the boat.

[@hkayztheoldguy]

Perhaps, for long sessions standing up…but I’m happy with it on the side, because I still prefer sitting down …definitely easier standing up behind console than tiller…for us Old Guys…😂

@@hkayztheoldguy can say that again 😂

[@JohnMcBride-mt3ft]

Hey mate where did you get your console ? Does it just screw to the floor or to the frame underneath?

[@hkayztheoldguy]

ProWave in Brisbane. You’ll find them with a Google search. I thought it was well made and priced. I fixed mine to the ply floor, which is fixed to a subfloor structure. There’s a video about the floor structure…thanks for your enquiry and good luck with it all. Cheers

Hk boat turned out a treat do like the 40hp motor or would you have gone 50 hp

[@hkayztheoldguy]

I'm happy with the F40...I think the 50 would make it just that much heavier...and thanks for commenting😎
