A friend of mine has told me that Craig Lowndes will be at the Brisbane boat show launching his new boat.Does anyone know what brand it is & what stand he is going to be on as I'm a big fan of Craig's & would like to catch up with him & get an autograph?I'm sure someone in the Ausfish community will have the answer for me.tight lines!!

Suggest you ' google ' him.

I am sure his racing team will have an announcement on it's web page.

Who's he racing for " 888 " isn't it ???

hi his bought a allison vision 195 with a 200 four stroke yamaha top rig as far as i know his on the kratzmanns marine stand

[Skusto]

i wonder if he bought it or recieved it, its probably a publicity stunt for kratzmans to try and get more business?

[tin can marlin]

I heard he was getting a bar crusher from the new dealer for them marine tune. A mate of mine is in the bar crusher network and he said that lowndes was in talks with them.

[Quaker]

I heard he bought the QE2, & still had squillions left.;D

[DR]

just googled Lowndes website, $20 joining fee & $45 a year m/ship..get a bit of stuff, but stuff that.. found this anyway....

Gunwhale in fact... but hey...who's checking

[tin can marlin]

I still think that marine tune is the dealer as i was down there today and they said that they were involved with craig.

[bigtez]

Have a look at the Bris Boat Show write up in Bush n Beach, QFM or the caboolture times, they have all reported that it was through Kratzmanns and Allison. My guess is it will be done in Vodafone colours like his race cars, perhaps grey boat with 'Vodafone' red decals.

[tin can marlin]

One thing that is for certain it will have max hp know the way lowndes drives on the race track. And it would have to have a yamaha on it as kratzmans are yamaha dealers. Looking foward to seeing what set up he has gone for.

Cheers,,thats what i typed first but changed it,,thats what night shift does to me

[deefa66]

Bingo to bigtez, it's out the back of their yard at Burpengery( except for the colour scheme)

So what color is it?

[tin can marlin]

Idon't know maybe it could be the same as his race car set up. It is good to see him getting a trailer boat not like a lot of wealthy famous people they all get the big riv's etc to show off. I think that it says a lot for the family trailer boat market.

[dogsbody]

Boats name "Chilli Blue" he was talking to Nugget just now.

Got the canopy of the 21 modified to suit the 195.

Funny name someone told me it is named after his young girl. I must say i was surprised he did not go for a bigger brand name like hains hunter etc.

[tin can marlin]

I was helping wayne and the team from stones today setting up there stand at the show and and had a look at it. I must say that it is not my type of boat and it did nothing for me imo.

G'day


That's probably a good thing seeing as it is not your boat.

Would purely be a marketing thing for kratzmans, kratzmans did the same thing with his caravans and got that country singer to endors them, just a way of trying to generate some business for his marine side if things.

[dogsbody]

The thing is his missus is the fisherman in the family. Good to see. Bloody ford drivers.
