We had a 1987 Pacific 5.8m (measured near 6.2m) and it was a great boat. My dad showed me the ropes in it and i have lots of great memories in that boat. Didnt have any bad habits, no broaching etc. Just a bit bangy which i thought was normal back then. Went really well with a 175 mariner 1994 model.
Very stable and very solid well made bit of gear.
But then i got converted to cats and i realised it banged a fair bit.
Cheers
