Looks Good Bazz
If you stop in 1 place more than a day do you leave the boat in the water or drop the rooftop camper each day to launch and retrieve the boat.
Running about should be ok you can always unhook the trailer and leave the camper set up.
Its hard to find the perfect set up cause the more we do the more we change the way we do it. the Older we get the further we travel the longer we stay and the better we want to do it
Enjoy it while you can mate Looks like a lot of fun
Cheers Kimo

we also have a quick erect tent so we dont have to use the camper - it really is meant just to overnight

yep looks great as I said get out and enjoy. I am going through a lot of similar stuff at the moment.
What I have is great to fish offshore and stay at caravan parks with a bit of free camp .
But I want to go back and do the Kimberly properly and there appears to be some great places in NT
Someone said they catch a few fish in the rivers up there so I would like to make sure they are not just pullin me leg.
Cheers Kimo

hooly dooly bazz , good setup. get your self a 2lt tin of tectyl 506. if you have a compressor , a spray-pot with a long nozzle, spray the trailer inside, outside , everywhere. then go for a drive along a dirt road. wait a month and do it again. done properly, you will never have rust problems. take the wheels off and do them both sides as well........mick
