Thanks for your replies guys and we appreciate your kind words.
A lot of hard work and years of saving made that possible.
We are too young to retire yet, but while we both are still working it's made it easier to achieve.
Cheers

hey Sol, just saw your post, sorry I'm a bit slow off the mark
We also have a Manta Ray by New Age, about 18 months old, have had a few trips away and absolutely love it,
only two very minor things need attention and the dealer dealt with those immediately.
They even have a New Age owners club
cheers Capricorn

Sol, Capricorn is only slow of the mark cos she has trouble finding the mark, I won't tell you about why but a glass and a bottle come to mind

G'day Capricorn.
Thanks for your reply.
We are wrapped in the Van so far. We went up to Atherton Woodlands Caravan Park on the weekend and everything performed perfectly. TV reception was great too
It tows beautifully behind the Colorado 7.
Cheers

I've done a few mods to the Manta Ray in the last few months also. I painted the silver jerry can holders black, put a piece of checker plate under the A Frame to store timber, made up some mud flaps to stop some of the stones damaging under the van and made up a pull out drawer for the front tunnel boot. Here's a few pics if you're interested.

Hi Sol, would like to see pictures of the other side of caravan, while you are at it pu a couple up of the interior.
Good looking van, maybe one day I may replace my van with that style and size. Ralph.
Radar, I'll take a few pics and put them later today.
Thanks for the compliment mate.

This is all I could get of the other side mate.
Sol, thank you, pretty easy to take. Ralph.
Thanks mate.

Everything went to plan.

Fridge was awesome on gas, hot water was hot, stove and BBQ great.
We got there 330pm Thursday afternoon and left 11am this morn.
The charge in the Batteries were still 12.9 volts.

Luv it, enjoy.
We pulled into Bluewater Caravan park on our way to Mackay.

I painted the silver jerry can holders black, put a piece of checker plate under the A Frame to store timber, made up some mud flaps to stop some of the stones damaging under the van and made up a pull out drawer for the front tunnel boot.
Here's a few pics if you're interested.
You are really starting to making it yours. Enjoy.
