The new "Alexander" is presently being built by Performance Plate Boats at Brendale in Brisbane (1 week into construction). It will be 10.2 metres long and 3.5 metres wide with all the good gear added.
I will post pics of the build as work progresses.
First pics are attached.

I am told at this stage the motors will be the twin 250 suzuki's from the previous boat. Fuel capacity is approx 1300 litres. I will give specific details on the layout as work progresses.Originally Posted by dec0guy

That's going to be one intense boat........can I have the offcuts, recon I could get a little 6m centrecab out of them....looking forward to watching the progress!
nice one dayoo.........whats that u need a decky lol.
keep us posted mate
Watching with interest. Still planning on cancelling my boat, given the fuel tax would chew up 5 months worth of each year's repayments. That's certainty for ya!
Might just wait 4 years and buy a Riviera 45. Stuff the fuel cost.

Carbon Really Ain't Pollution.
HI Barry,

Cheers,
Brian
Very nice indeed dayoo cant wait to see the finished product keep the posts comming.
Cheers Axl
Jeesus it's huge. Will it be trailered or moored?
that is going to be a hell of a sweet boat, is it yours?
Greg P i dare say being 3.5m wide it will be moored
I need to work harder and longer as the people on welfare need more people like me
The boatbuilder is also building an aluminum trailer so that the beast can be towed up to Tin Can Bay where it will be securely housed in a purpose build shed and it will be towed down to the ramp on each occasion we go fishing.
The tow vechicle just arrived yesterday from the USA its a Dodge Ram turbo deisel ute (truck) which will be converted to right hand drive and fitted with a fifth wheel on the tray to take the weight estimated at around 6 tonnes.
I will post a pic of the tow vehicle in a few weeks.
Cheers
Barry
GFC, what GFC..........1300L's........Glad I'm not filling that up
Will be one impressive tinny alright, better get a camera with a wide angle lens to fit it all in.
