I do a fair bit of mag work these days that requires a bit more grunt. Just bought a Canon 350D. Awesome camera.

I do like the look to the ProStrike. One of our guys here in WA is about to get one. I'm looking forward to review it for sure. Might just tip me into getting a local product.

If nothing else, my hope is that the imported boats will wake up Aussie manufacturers and finally make them see the light. Anglers have been wanting better finished boats for a long time, and while we've seen the prices come down from where they were when tournament fishing first started, I believe they still have a long way to go. Especially when you see that the only Quintrex advertised tournament ready boat is around $38, 850. around $13,000 more than the std 475 model Why a company hasn't, at worst, purchased one of these US boats and taken a long hard look as to what goes into making them so good has me stumped. I'll continue to by home grown, but I won't stop asking for better value and better equipped boats.
