TABS 435 Territory - Good, Bad and Ugly

[Angryant]

I'm looking to buy a TABS 435 Territory (2006 manufacture).
It has 4mm bottom and 3mm sides - looks very solid.

Anyone had/have one of these?
Any feedback on performance would be great.

It has a 40hp Merc 4st tiller steer on it - so far looks the goods.
Comments would be appreciated.

Cheers

Okay, so a huge amount of responses to my original question (not) ......
Here's the next one...........

Running a 40hp 4stroke on a 4.35m adequate; bearing in mind it is slightly heavier than a stock tinnie???

Yuk,,,,,,, hows that :)

The 40 would be just enough.. at the low end of performance

a step back from your yammy :)

I know its not quite the same but Ive got a 4.5m plate boat. Its got a 60hp Yamaha. I wouldnt want less. So for 4.35 40 is probably OK but check to see what its maximum is. Aim for that.

Morning ,
I have a 4.2 Seascape Viper ( made by TABS ) . It has a 40hp 4 Stroke yammie on her . I am happy with the setup .
I know with mine , even if I wanted to go the 50 HP , the weight would be over the specified allowed .

Agreed Garry, however it will only be me in the boat for 90% of the time - hence why I sold the Southwind.
There is also a "plan" here; that is the other half will want to go longer distances so I will keep the TABS and buy a 6m glass boat. I then have the best of both worlds.

The boat is rated to 60hp so I do have the option of upgrading the outboard if I need to.
