Thats a saloon you idjut

+1

The salon is just a boating term for lounge really, just like the head, which comes from the ancient practice of going to the head of the boat and hanging the freckle/tackle overboard to take a dump/slash (someone might get the hidden joke there)...... :rofl:

Rivieras are way cool, but a bit like a hotel you don't want a wild party in because everything is so expensively finished.

Mine is a custom Bruce Roberts Waverunner 38B made 40ft long with rear pods. The styling is a little dated compared to the Rivieras but I can live with the massive amount of space it has instead. It was mostly finished by a professional builder who got sick and couldn't work, sold to a guy that did a bit but found it was taking too much time and money and I got it for a third of what has been spent so far. Still needs motor, steering and rudder but should be pretty easy. Full cedar interior, 2 staterooms, salon, kitchen, head, 3 decks for lounging on plus I'll setup a marlinboard/swimdeck and dive bottle/gear storage and compressor for fills.

Nice!! Just pulled up his site before, the floor plans for the 38A are pretty open. You could say, family/drunk mate(s) friendly :D haha. I’d assume the A and B are much the same? As I couldn’t see any listings for B’s.

Going to keep it down to Gold Coast?

The aft well deck on the B is enclosed to make a stateroom. nice big one too and so the rear deck sits on top of that for drunken sunning and napping.

This site shows the B http://www.bruceroberts.com.au/power/wr38.htm

And this one as well http://www.bruceroberts.com/public/HTML/de...description.htm

I'm just looking at keeping on a mooring at Rudi Marrs' as some of the other places are pretty expensive. They have a storage area for tenders and it's really just somewhere to park it until you use it. If I was going to spend time living aboard I'd put it somewhere nicer though.

Can’t believe I didn’t even see the B straight under the A listing, lol. I didn’t have my glasses on, clearly.

so did u get a lizard

Never rang the EPA about a license as it doesnt look like you can keep a moniter in Queensland, plus I won't have a place to keep it if dad ends up working at Riviera, which is obviously on the Gold Coast

Will you be moving to the coast josh is your dad goes to riviera?

I’m not sure. I like the Gold Coast better then Brisbane. But Bris has more to offer in terms career in my opinion. Just seems to be more jobs for bigger companies. Obviously exceptions to this rule… But yer lol

I probably wouldn’t and use the time as a brake, then move back in realistically..

There in Coomera, so I think he is talking about living around the Helensvale to Hope Island end of the Goldy

    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches. 
    • Welcome!  Can't go wrong with a Stag.
    • Looks good. Nice height.
    • Hey all, a little help from the Stagea hive mind plz.. I'm days away from buying either a 2002 Stagea 250tRS AR-X Four, premium leather, power seats and all the old switches etc that go with it, or a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO, pov pack, cloth seats etc, with coil overs, sports zorst, comes with original zorst and suspension and parts. (I think I've got the models right?) Both are VQ25DET, have 160000kms, both straight no rust both with $2000+ in recent servicing receipts, both ride on aftermarket 18" rims. The Aero has a replaced turbo as well. I like the cool factor of the Aero car but the AR-X has never been modified. Neither have been driven hardly at all in the last 5 years. Any thoughts on which one or does it come down to personal preference? davemoto
