    Are you looking for the southern based boat......

    I'll tell you what, you buy one and tell me how it handles the Grey bar with a " bit " of chop, an south set, and if it does that average or better I'll buy one for the north based boat (as from what I've seen, the NI bars are sort of flat/easy/maybe one hand hold on sort of events..... )


    They look a sharp boat though. But not 100% convinced yet......
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    I have a good boat. Mclay. Just don't use it as much as I should. It has only done 50hrs from new in 2013.

    More interested too see if I can come up and ruin your snapper fishing😆

    Never seen a FC in real life.

    Yeah it is pretty sad. The weather here is a killer for going saltwater fishing and getting up there is almost a yearly event. I will use it more once I stop working overseas.

    Weather has been awesome my last 2 breaks but it has been pretty miserable for the last year.
    It's there when I need it tho😆

    My cousin brought a 595? Mclay at xmas. Bloody nice looking boat. He knows a thing or 2 about boats/ ships, and he rates it for what they wanted. They are in the list to look at aswell.
    Looking for something around the 6m mark, and hardtop.

    As for ruining the fishing... you are more than welcome to try might try and fit a clay thrower to the roof for when the fishing is off

    I will be up with bells on. Took some guys out for a hunt recently from the far north that have offered to take us out for a marlin and some snaps.

    Once you buy the boat I will fly back from work via Auckland and curse your snapper fishing. I am a deterrent to the fuckers😆

    Pretty sure it is just me. My son seems to have no trouble catching snaps when I am in the boat.😆

    I hadn't caught a salmon for a couple years but got rid of that curse this year.

    I don't think you have been over the Patea bar then.

    You're correct I haven't.

    But I have been over the Grey a few times in various boats/ships and also my grandad remains there to (never found him). I may/do appreciate the sea a fare bit.

    My post was a bit of piss take to the hoki man, the north island certainly has some nasty barstard bars, that I'm not personally familiar with - yet.
