Quintrex 450 Hornet or Blue finn warrior or wildcat
Hi.
Im about to buy a boat and confused about what kind. I have about 25k to spend and im not sure of the hornet 450 Quintex or a blue fin Warrior/Wildcat both with 60 mercury 4 strokes.I live at Redland bay in queensland and will be fishing around he bays. I want it for fishing and going through rough water at times. I have been to many boat shops and they are telling me all diffrent kinds of things. The blue fin is about 4k cheaper. Any suggestions on either boat would be greatly appeciated..

Many Thanks
Ben

Mate,
Personally I would go for the Bluefin but horses for courses. Get a copy of each boats specifications and extras and go through each individually. Tick and cross as you go down the list. Look at things like hull thickness both floor and transom, beam, transom height, number of ribs, rowlocks, grab rails etc. Look at what modifications or extras you might want and check on which offers the best for quality and price. Agt the end of the day if you look at both you will more than likely get a gut feeling. If you feel in any way uncomfortable with either then there will be your answer. Possibly also the brand of outboard offered may also swing your decision.

Cheers
