    I know you've said plate, but what about a 5.6m Bonito? You'd build one well under your budget!

    What about the formosa 550 or 580 CC Tomahawk? http://www.formosamarineboats.com.au...e-tomahawk.php

    Go fibreglass. So much better. Bonito or yanky import like a Grady white or Boston whaler would
    be my choice.

    With that budget mate, I'm sure you should be close to a custom build. Give a few builders a call, and they should be able to give you ball parks of what you want.

    Cheers

    Have a look at the AMM Sea Class, I am in line for a 7m CC, but my mate just picked up his 4.9 CC and it is a very impressive boat.

    How about this one. Just out of budget but if you can stretch, brand new with 45hrs. He has been fitting it out slowly over a year and has only been fishing it over Christmas.

    After considering a range of options, I ordered a Seajay 5.6 Predaking. It's being constructed right now.

    Thats a shame, you could have one of these for around $30k depending on fit out, and of course you have to build it yourself...

    Not too sure home building anything under about 5.5m is really worth while, there is dozens of boats to choose from in that range, from mass produced to custom, and prices are pretty close to what you pay for a kit and gear/consumables to build one.
