boats made at hillcrest brisbane. use to be browns plains, but higher up.
i looked through factory about 2 months ago. if i hadnt decided to go a runabout he had my business for open tinny.looked the goods, very well built. give him a ring. owner ia paul. seemed like a nice bloke.
Thanks to all for the reply's here and in the last couple of posts I made asking for advice, also for the replys to my PM's from Seahorse and Matt.
I have ordered the Aquamaster 5.4m Abalone open tiller tinny with some changes to gunnel and front deck design over standard.
Now the 8 week wait till completion
Going to put the 30hp on the back until I can save up for the next spending spree on a proper sized donk, till then I will have one hell of big creek fishing boat
Yeah Dan your welcome anytime but if you would like a trip to the reef and back with the 30hp better pack some lunch, dinner, breakfast and possibly some more lunch
here is a pic of the hull, mine will be the most basic but still identical hull, other stuff coming sooner or later
Tommorrow!! Mate congrats!, dont forget to true the boat with your eye from as many angles as possible before signing off. A tape measure wouldn't go astray either. There is a clark in a yard here where the gunnel height is almost 1 inch lower at the transom one side compared to the other when I ran my eye over it
Sure you will have no problems, - straight to the water for a run? lucky bugger.
Yeah straight from Paul, seems fair dinkum and I guess not like the salesman I was expecting (after speaking to a couple of other more mass produced tinny manufacturers). price was the kicker though, simply the first real honest price I found, makes me wonder what the out the door cost of a 5m open tinny really is to the big mobs, prolly well less than 2 grand I guess.
G-day
I have purchased a 5mt open from aquamaster a few months back, I have had nothing but pleasure sinse owning it.
I had a 85 lt under floor tank put in and motor well combined with a live bait tank and battery storage , under the floor there is room for a 20 lt reserve tank and the extra rope.
It is powered by the yammy 60 4 stroke.
I have clocked up about sixty hours and half of that outside.
It handles great off shore an average trip out to the catheadrals about 130 km and about 40 lts most of the time about 5500 rpm.
