Took the boat for a run( 4.2 quintrex with 50 hp evinrude Lark) at lake purrembete on sat the motor ran well pumping plenty of water. No fish but it was mainly to test the boat. Cheers Brett

Lucky bugger. I went to the Trailer Boat Show at Rosehill weekend before last and looked at a number of boats. Really liked the Trailcraft and Ally Plate boats

Allycraft | Aluminium Plate Fishing Boats | Aluminium Boats | Ally Craft Quality Aluminium Boats | Boat Builders Queensland - 5.40 Odyssey (http://www.allycraft.com.au/5.40-Odyssey.html)

Trailcraft Australia - Boat Main (http://www.trailcraft.com.au/boats/boat.aspx'model=540sportscab)

That was the easy bit - now to convince the Missus

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM?

One day soon

Hi Chenz
A mate of mine kept telling me how good a Trailcraft is,and it would be his ultimate purchase,on his advice I would like one.
Would pay to research some of the WA boating forums and have a ride.Read heaps of comments about them having a harsh ride when the seas arent nice.
I really like the look and build strength,plus watched Malcom Douglas crucify his in his Kimberly TV shows,impressive.
