Waiting on my new 4.5m Brooker tinny to arrive. Wondering if anyone has any info on how they ride and so-on. I found them to be the best price I could find but never driven one or known anyone whos owned one.

Any info would be good cheers.:D

my old 12 foot brooker is 20 odd years odd and never had a crack or a weld redone, the boat is unpainted and the ali is as good as the day it was built. Good ride for a 12 footer too. Prior to that I had a 14 footer that came off a cray boat (ex commercial) and that too was in excess of 20 years old, banged up a lot but still a good boat.
cheers

Greetings Brooker Boy, I have a 12 month old Brooker 4.1 safari with 30 hp Yamaha 3 cylinder outboard. I fitted a stainless prop last weekend and managed 27.5 knots. Needless to say I was very impressed. Brookers are the best value tinny on the market. Mine is finished well , is very stable and rides like any other pressed tinny. For the same price as other tinnies , mine was fitted with full floor, pedestal seats, bow rail, anchor well and side rails. My last boat was a 4.75 Brooker runabout which I had for six years. You will get many years of enjoyment from your Brooker . Cheerrs Winston.
