A 4.45 mtr Four Seasons. MAde by Stessco.

Maiden voyage on Sunday went great. Exceeded my expectations of a small boat in a very choppy sea.

I have a couple of issues to bring up with the dealer redarding the fitout but the boat and motor appear to be good. Gave it a very short max throttle squirt and the gps read 59.4kph..

Top looking boat Brett. You will sure be hammering the waters around Mackay with that. Looks like its got all the goodies. Just need to buy youself a Sarca and youll be set. They are worth every cent.

I have heard the name Sarca for years and haven't really taken much notice...........Will look into it...
Yes we decided to get almost everything fitted now(while the wife is in a good mood!!) otherwise it will never happen.
