[Importing A Boat? Info & Costs]

Thanks GregL

I have been very close to buying a contender 23 or 23T locally. Love them, but the price is "just" out of reach today.

Are you happy with the boat, any downsides? eg wet, storage??

Hi Greg

Did you import your contender yourself?

Mick

It works out about $8k just in shipping plus all the rest once it's here.

[Tabs Boats]

Hello

My two cents worth. I bought a highly customised plate boat. 5.5 m center console Jopalo. Built in Yamba, finish second to none, up there with fibreglass. regularly fish anything from pitwatter to bowns mountain, i very adverse conditions.Took me ages to find the boat i wanted, because the finish and structural aspects of alot of production tinnies was crap.

These boats are crafted, not built.

CC are a bit wet, but thats the compromise.

Here are some pics, my boat is 2 year old and the new ones are even better, way better. My boat is being refitted at the moment with outriggers, new larger sounder, new carpet and some paint touchups.

Hi Guys

Looking to buy a bigger boat, currently have a great center console at 5.5 meter.

I have been looking at a 1900 or 2100 kevlacat. Does anyone have any experience with these or can suggest another brand.

thanks in advance

Mick
