    New tinnie recommendations

    Hi guys
    Looking to buy a new tinnie, looking for something thats bass/bream style suited thats got a decent front and rear casting deck that can hold a 90-115hp motor, always can pull a skier or tube if needed. What are some decent boats out there at the moment? Cheers

    Must be a thousand boats that will fit your intended use, probably best to do a bit of googling, then a few trips to various dealers.

    Seen the dominators and barcrushers, there not bad but they dont have rear casting decks and i dont want the anchor well up front, only few boats i've found are the trophy hornet, tabs wildfisher and a few of the bluefin models that suit what i want

    Bluefin boats are Gold Coast built and can be customised to a certain degree, Iv had a great run from mine and would recommend one , the Aluvans look good as well . Matt

    New tinnie recommendations

    I have had my 4.5 mt predator for 13 yrs mate , it has a 60 hp mariner with over 900 hrs on it now and has traveled an unbelievable amount of kms now . The only problem I have had is with the floor needing to be replaced but I till love my boat and would be hard pressed to change . Matt

    The wildcat is a good looking boat as well I personally don't like my casting deck up under the gunnels as I like to be sure I am going to stay in the boat when chasing mackerel and Tuna , Matt

    Bit out of left field and not tin but quieter with a better ride and just as tough if not tougher. Casting platforms aren't hard to fab up.

    I personally don't quite see a huge benefit in having a casting deck with zero freeboard, but it seems to be the rage.
