Thread: Surtees 5.5 Workmate

Apparently 9kgs less than the yamie which if true is significant

Yea. wonder if they are both ready to run weights with oils etc.
Either way they are all getting lighter and more efficient.
Nothing to tinker with under the hood tho might as well throw your tool kit there is another couple of kilos

A Senator 520 or 540 will hopefully hole up in my shed pretty soon.

Iv got a 520 senator with a 90 honda 4stroke on the back

It is about perfect

One man launch/retreve with ease
two for a beach launch

often just me and the missus
similar internal room to my old 4.4m ramco seeker but you can use every inch of it because its stable as and you can bend over the edge and it dosent tip

perfect ballance between size stability and ease of beach launch for remote beaches

highly reccomended getting between a 5 and 5.5
like is said above mine gets used 10 times more than mates with larger boats
