I've looked at the trailcraft and formosa in the 540 sports cab and the 550 supercab and imo the formosa gets the points.Also if you want to compare fibreglass with the platey's Broadwater boat center down the Goldy have
an Allison 189 fisherman all tricked up for a little over 45k.I almost bought it
but settled on a haines signature instead. I started out with the Formosa in
mind and look what happened........ah well.Jim:D

Jim, you cant get away with a post like that without telling us:
Which model Haines you bought!:)
What colour motor?
Was the Haines much more than the Allison 189?
