Stabicraft Boats- any one got one?

[ribbit]

I had a good look at the 589 and 609 hardtops a couple days ago. Awesome looking rig, plate glass widows with wiper, very solid build. I can see my self in one and even the wife liked it. Just got to get the $65-70k to buy it now.
Anyone who has fished in one please give feedback
Ride. Is it as soft as they say?
Stability, Is it as flat as rest as they say?
And they reckon I don't need big power plant to run them.

Gday Boys,
My Old Man Used to run a Stabi Off the south island of new zealand....
I Dunno if you ve ever fished that kind of water but it gets pretty big and that 5-6m boat was one of the safest feeling boats ive ever been in . If I could afford one id get one for sure. Stable, Dry Reasonably soft ride ( plate boat) love em cant get enough of em wanna boof em.

Buy and enjoy....
P.S I Dont work for Stabicraft..

My mate has one up here and we fished around the cape around this time last year, very impressive rig! His is a sports cab i think its called, 589 if i remember rightly, with a 140 johno 4s. Cant really comment on how it handles a good sea as it was the doldrums when we went out, so everywhere was mirror flat, but seems like it is built well and should be a good ride in the slop. Was good fishing 3 up all day, very stable at rest, plenty of room in the cockpit and lots of storage for all the bits and pieces.

Would be a good family boat, nice big cabin for the kids, big high gunnels, walkthrough transom (not sure if thats standard or not..?) and very dry underway.
