Re: Haines 680 Patriot or a 7.2m Platey

Spent a lot of time lately in a 680 with a 225 four yammy, crossed the bay in a 30 knot northerly doing 20 knots, the arse slides a bit sometimes but it was doing 20 knots. i reckon the bay dishes up worse seas than "offshore" anyway, and yes they are self draining but the foredeck drains into the bilge, not a great idea. 2 can overnight comfortably. top speed over 35 knots. not a lot of space between the seats but you got a full walk around. awesome machine and still has a roomy cabin with pretty good fishing space. Why hasnt that guy with a"k" at the start been removed for his insults?

I have the 680 Patriot with a 225 yam. love the setup more everytime we take it out. Absolutely great for overnighting even for a couple of nights with 2 people. Great ride in the rough, don't know where you are located but if you can make it to Gladstone I'd be happy to take you out for a run. Any more questions just PM me.

Stubbie!!

Re: Haines 680 Patriot or a 7.2m Platey

do it in class , do it in glass !!
went down this road not long ago myself and it
really comes down to which setup best suits your
needs, and the main factor budget. a lot of the bigger
glass boats dont seem to have a large back deck on them
for what they are. good luck its a tuff one.
cheers dale

When you have been on the site a little bit longer than a month you will realize all the good info that guy with a "k" gives out to all who ask.

Re: Haines 680 Patriot or a 7.2m Platey

Go the hains,i dont think there is such a thing as a comfortable plate boat,i had one built and only had it 3 months,another mate has a 30 feet stingray flybridge and it still rides like shit.
