I have a Haines Hunter 460SLR, and as much as i would love to be getting around in a 445f or similar i just find something with a bit of protection is much more comfortable for me these days.Trumpeter wrote: ↑Wed Mar 25, 2020 10:30 amAfter owning several open boats and predominantly bait fishing PPB I changed to a cuddy and enjoy being able to stay warm and dry without having to dress like Scott of the Antarctic. There's also more rear deck space than the two CC's I had and better seating arrangement.
My ideal boat would be probably a V17L that has had an engine pod put on it and removed the back quarter seats and engine well so you can walk right up to the transom, you see a lot of these around at the moment. And i have always liked Barcrushers, the 490 or 530C would be nice one day. Although i am probably leaning more towards a Surtees Workmate these days as they have a couple of nice features that the 'crusher doesnt have.
