  6. mate, I used to fish out of a new 30 odd foot express quite a few years ago out of the islands in southern florida and in my humble opinion. . . 1. punching straight into swell sent a lot of vibration on landing (to much) , we were pushing it to test after innitial running in and tuning 2. The gelcoat chipped to easily- I think this is too much hardener or dried too quick this is a half educated guess the boat had been purchased new to the specs of a weopons purchasing officer for their navy This was quite a few years ago, I think they started early 80's I would also strongly suggest these problems have been rectified if they are still in business today Target species were, sailfish, mahi, king mackeral, tarpon, cobia, grouper and was a good platform in varying conditions and backing down in chop was comfortable and dry felt safe and comfortable 60 miles offshore in the gulf stream, the weather patterns are different there compared to sydney however which I think overall are harsher offshore would i buy one - yes does any of this help - i don't know

  11. I heard oberon was going well too on lyall theres a right hand turn 700 metres before the wall that runs down to a small inlet thats good on the fly early morning and late afternoon. I have no idea how to fly fish but the old fellers throw their wooly buggers around there a bit and take the piss out of anything that isnt fly related.
