Has anyone had anything to do with polycraft boats, or does anyone own one? I have been checking out a few lately, and they look pretty tough. I am keen to find out how good they are, and mainly how well they last.
The local (Melbourne) supplier has naturally praised them up a lot, and reckons they are as tough as nails and virtually unsinkable, and I have read a bit on the net about them, but I am still keen to hear from someone who has used one first hand. I mainly fish rivers and lakes, so the 4.10m Challenger would suit me fine. Any advice, anyone??
Cheers!

You may have seen them, but they looked like intersting reading.

Hope this Helps, Cheers

Thanks for the help, Justin. Those are some great pics! The more I see, the more I want one!
They are sounding better all the time, I want something that will be stable enough to haul in cray nets over the side without rolling, but not as harsh as my flat bottom punt. Anything that rides softer would be great....my kidneys and bum are crying for mercy!
Cheers!

A couple of mates have bought the 4.1m and love'm, from the tests they had.
