Around to the driver’s side of the tub we
find a ripper three stage fold-over boat rack
that is capable of loads up to 150kg and
tilts all the way to ground for easy loading/
unloading. The Austrack boys sensibly pointed
out that it makes a great clothes line when
the water toys are in use as well. Then there’s
twin lockable water fillers, and in front of the
axle is the electrical control centre complete
with dual water tank level indicators, digital
voltmeter, ammeter and battery management
system, isolator, main switches with fuses and
even an instruction sticker to fully explain the
charging criteria. I was pleased to see an added
Anderson plug inlet for the 160W solar panel,
plus there’s a 240V input and a 20A battery
charger. The next compartment reflects the
pantry on the other side, however there is
only a single drawer to cater for higher objects
plus the pole compartment, accessible from
both sides. Finally we find a cavernous storage
compartment up front that is large enough to
carry the porta-potti (standard), or perhaps the
generator and plenty of other accessories. It
even has a fire extinguisher as standard – see
what I mean about sensible packaging?THE LIVING ROOM
Austrack have created a huge footprint of
