Some good mods there :) I have similar fins...made a big difference!

All you need to add now is a fishfinder and a cocktail cabinet!!

I would think it would be extremely dangerous trying to go forwards in a normal float tube  :shock

But Ben, why do you need one..I have seen you walk on water in the past ;)

have to agree with Rob on that one, you want to go forwards get a pontoon boat or a kayak.
I had great fun in the states flyfishing from a kayak, would do it here too except for the crocs :z10

Pah..I learnt to water ski in the Belait river, also used to swim off the jetty at the Yacht club...but then again, I was young and wore my Superman swimming trunks and any croc would have been scared ;)
