hey guys,
why is it that australia has hardly any walkaround larger fishing boats? i've been looking at american websites an they have bayliner trophys (2902) shamrock walkarounds, proline walkarounds, seaswirl stripers? there seems to be a big gaping hole in the aussie market for these kind of boats and when there are a couple around they are asking enormous prices (due to costly importing i suppose).
We do have quite a few models built by Australian manufacturer's available - i.e. Seafarer Voyager Centre Cab, Haines Hunter 680 Patriot etc.
Australia still builds the best quality boats, just have a look at second hand Australian built boats versus the 3 - 4 Yr. old imports.
If you've got them by the balls their hearts and minds will follow. JOHN WAYNE
G'day
I think he's talking about 25'-29' walkarounds. All i could suggest is get a custom plate job done up? And i fully agree with the quality of aussie boats over the yankie ones. They all look great new but how do the hold up 2, 4, 6 and 10 years later?

Blackened , said it aussie plate, choose your width.
Only money will decide, still a little bit of homework will reveal
quite a few choices. patience trouves, whats in yard is not all that is available.
best luck, hey sure 702 walkaround and 23 noosa still on boatpoint..????
