Out and about last week at
Twilight Cove, we were again amazed at the 200's capacity to handle any conditions.
Even though there was a light swell breaking inshore, the 'facilities' handled it with ease. Admittedly we were down to 20 psi, but even so, its capacity for blue water 4WD'ing had us gobsmacked...
S'truth, we're out a long way here....
Cheers.

Fabulous work
John.
An amphibious 200 series - Mr Toyota would be delighted.
Hopefully the water wasn't too deep.
cheers

Not too deep Phil, thanks very much for your concern; we were worried at the end of the indicated plot, a bit too sloppy for the navigator, and, hence circled; floated nicely out although it did lean a little bit awkwardly into the onshore windage...
Cheers.

Phil,
John didn't tell you but he's swapped his 200s for
Panther water car
Cheers

Hey Dunc,
I've had another look at the plt - I reckon its his secret
fishing spot. He's gone back and forward on the same line (with a couple of loops) - i reckon he had cray pots or crab pots in and was going back and
forth checking them.
Notice he didn't mention how many he caught.

John,
You weren't trolling for White Pointers, by any chance :-)

I think I see the problem
John. It's either proof positive that oceans are actually rapidly receding not rising, or your Chinese GPS is not keeping up with plate tectonics.
