I've seen a couple on the water down at Berowra. Ive always thought they looked a bit dodgy. The web site makes them look pretty good. Although thats what web sites are designed to do!

so u think there not good or jus look dodgy coz im interested in takin one out to the hawkesbury or botany , any suggestions ?

When I say they look a bit dodgy.I mean that although they may be stable these boats dont look like they could take much of a flogging when the wind blows up. The amount of times I've been out on a wonderfully calm morning only to be plowing through heavy chop on the way back to the ramp. Even somwhere as sheltered as berowra ck.

Please let us know what these boats are like when you test one Im really keen to hear.

Had a look at the website but couldn't see a price. How much?
