This new Osborne 6000 centre-cabin
trailer gameboat is the second in the
series being developed by Wayne
Osborneandhisteam,followingonfrom
the Osborne 7500 featured in the last
issue of BlueWater. The 6000 shares
many of the same attributes, including
its newlydeveloped advanced wetkeel.
The 6000’s features will help it punch
way above its size and weight, with
its central cabin, helm and workstation
enabling unimpeded 360-degree hands-If you are serious about ensuring
every tuna you catch to eat is of
premium quality, then you need the
right tools to do the job properly. As
you’ll read in the article by specialist
fish vet and tuna industry consultant Paul Hardy-
Smith in this issue, there are scientifically proven
reasons why going through the procedure Paul
describes will significantly improve the taste and
storage capabilities of the fish you catch. People who
regularly catch tuna cannot believe the difference in
the quality and taste once they began to spike, bleed,
core and pith their tuna using these tools. And doing
so is much more humane for the fish as well.
The Panaquatic tuna processing kit suits fish from
10 to 100kg and contains the four commercial quality
tools needed to humanely and immediately kill and
bleed your tuna. It includes a sturdy ikijimi spike, a
specialised bleeding knife, and a brain coring tool with
pithing wire to access and then deaden the central
nervous system within the spine. The tools are made
of high quality stainless-steel except for the knife,
which is a specially designed steel blade to cut
the lateral blood vessels without damaging the
underlying muscle.
Each kit comes in its own box with a link to
an instructional video which guides you through

this boat has been designed for the task.
There will be several variations to the
Osborne 6000’s layout, from a very
budget conscious centre-console throughto this more elaborate centre-cabin. The
cabin includes a marine toilet and twin
bunks, but it is best used for lock-up
storage. Combined with a 115hp 4-stroke
outboard and the underfloor 160L fuel
capacity, the Osborne 6000 will offer
