a boat Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Hi, I would buy one that is not even on your list and I have been in them all on your list. I have rigged engines on them all and serviced three of them and have seen what goes on in the hidden areas of some of those on your list after even a short few years. Cheers, Huey.

greg123 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 What does everyone think about those Noble boats? A guy up the road from me has a very nice hardtop one that looks pretty well built and designed. I don't know much about them though. Are they custom or just a low volume manufacturer?

Geoff Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Hey Raiders, FYI i have my heart set on a white pointer : ) I looked at the web site & video for WP. Nice looking boat but would be a bit concerned with the amount of deck space , the cabin comes a fair way back. The video looks nice but all boats look good in calm water. For an offshore boat it's a pity they do not show how it handles rough conditions. Personally , for offshore rough conditions it's hard to go past a twin hull "cat" Here is one to think about http://www.websterstwinfisher.com.au/site/index.cfm?display=229654 Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRED-ATOR Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Pred-ator Did you see this report ?? http://www.trailerboat.com.au/news-and-reviews/article/articleid/73594.aspx Geoff Thanks Geoff, I have seen this review along with every other thing white pointer related LOL. I sit on google at work and check out white pointer stuff. I think theres alot of bias in reviews but for an Australian to say that a kiwi made boat is the BEST he has EVER been in is a bold claim. I would like to see more rough water action though. Thanks, Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 This thread will go nowhere Stan. Do your research and go for a ride in your preferred boat and you make the decision. Its your money not someone elses. Closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
