Hi all

Just wondering who owns one of these boats and what your opinion of them is.
My brother takes delivery of his at the end of the month.

Hi Ronnie i have had my 550 c/c for about 3mths now and find it a great little boat. Very beamy and high sides and gets along nicely.
Very practicle fishing boat IMO.
Here are some pics of the tinnie of mine. (hopefullt this works i haven't does the attach thing before)

Thanks for the pics. These boats certainly look good and bro tells me they handle things pretty well. he went out a couple of weks ago with an owner and said it handled great in the rough conditions.

What size motor do you have, he is getting a 115 yammie i think//

Thanks Ronnie, i had the 115 e-tec put on it. Yeah handles itself really well in the chop.
Waiting for the rain and wind to go so i can go out again.

Cheers

i have a 5.2 c consol and absolutley love it, i just spent a week fishing broughton island and it handled some pretty average conditions beautifully, mine is matched with a 90 etec at it seems a good match, for the price i feel you wont get anything that comes close.;) ;)
