    Your not going to get one new. The 28 is well over $300,000 new in the US. Not sure about the 26.
    Its well worth looking at their innovative interior designs though. There is a 24 in the series as well

    Wild Turkey is the go!

    You'd have change if you bought a nice 34' Black Watch with open bulkhead and 330 Cummins'. $250K might not stretch to a 36' though.

    If you wanted a bit more of a family boat with twin staterooms a 35' Bertie or Carribean with 330+ Cummins' might sneak in.

    Not a fan of the express boats from the US everyone seems to be bringing in. Still good value in flybridge land. Had a mate bring in a 44' custom with 710hp electronic Cats for $200K AUD landed here. US Blackfins/Black Watchs etc. would be the go. Their Blackfins are suppossed to be good and different to the ones built here under licence back in the 80s.

    I don't even like the look of the express boats - just a personal thing, but I much prefer the look of the flybridge boats myself

    nah, not for me. express boats remind me of an oversized trailer boat style, and for spending all that money I would want a flybridge - but thats just me

    Hi Tim

    By the time you build your proposed platey you will have been better off just getting the Riv. .

    http://www.boatpoint.com.au/boats-fo...aspx?R=8675844

    You would probably get it for the same 250k ish; by the time your finished building new and fitting out; and the missus will get a more comfortable ride in the Riv too. Hope you have a bridge free track to the deep which I dont!

    Cheers

    Yeah but no range! I'm building 'cause I'll get what I want. 1,000 litres of fuel = loooong range!
