Hi guys I’m new to the this. I’m looking at buying a boat. I’ve done research I’ve narrowed it down to 615 bar rusher or 6200 quintrex yellowfin. Any thoughts opinions or experiences on either boat would be appreciated Thanks.

Both good brands. The Bar Crusher has more a cult-like following, will probably hold its value better.

One key difference is the Bar Crushers are quite narrow for their length. The Yellowfin will be a wider boat and probably longer too (BC tend to overstate length). But with the narrower beam, the BC will likely ride better, although won't be as stable at rest as the Yellowfin.

Both good rigs from respected brands. For me I would go the Bar Crusher, they're built well and typically get a good wrap by their owners. Although I'd also be looking at Surtees, i.e. the original NZ Company that Bar Crusher copied (and continues to copy).

Took the words right out of my mouth. You get more internal room with the Yellowfin and I think they come out cheaper too. So if you are taking several mates and not concerned about having the softest ride perhaps go for the Yellowfin.

Hi Mate

i have a yellowfin 6200. They are a great fishing boat. Very nice ride and very fishable. 

My only criticisms are the hull doesnt deflect hull spray very well being so smooth and if your cutting through swell without the trim tabs operating u can occasionally get a lean to left/right if ur going too fast. But always good when trim tabs going.

other than that very happy

happy to answer any other questions,pm me
