I own a 3.95 m alley craft, generally its a wonderful little boat. Though it has a crack in it, and mine is not the only alley craft I have heard of cracking. Just something to think about!!!:wiink:
yeah not sure what i want brand new or second hand though brand new plate is what im leaning towards ,blue fin,tabs,or even looking at clark abalone 4.65.though i rather 4.35 to4.55 ...4.65 will be ok if i have to just need it to fit in the garage
is that were you got your user from? arrow karts?

Arrow, looks OK, especially the 4mm hull
dunno if it has a high enough bow to take on much swell....
the clark abalone's are superb tho..

Have a look at the Goldstar range from Perth, Tabs put around 60hrs in to the building of it, Goldstar 120hrs, just spent 3 months looking for a plate and bought a 6.5m Goldstar Sailfisher series, Centre Cab..:ohhh yeah: They have models for every style:headbang:
