Hi Basserman
Just been looking at a slick looking 6.5 meter glass built in smithton tassie and it is one sexy looking boat, nearly make you wanta stroke it, only problem is it is a proto at this stage and under sea trials, I think they are about to start to lay the second hull, but not yet ready to go commercial. powered by twin 115 4 stroke yamies
cheers

yeh i'm thinking of getting something diffrent
everyone has ether a haines , crusecraft, southwind or the like

looking at a streaker on the web that looks nice
http://www.streakerboats.com.au/585tournament/585tournament.htm
but finding some diffrent boats is a bit hard and being in port macquarie with only two dealers (one is crusecraft the others haines hunter)
??? ???

Hi basserman
I think they are talking about $85000 for these units, they are also built to survey standard, no timber at all. If I had the $'s I would tell them to lay the next on for me. if you are interested in talking to the guys I can pass the PH No on
I also have no commercail dealings with these guys apart from paying my bills there each month
cheers
