They seem to use all space very well and have a deeper v hull https://www.profileboats.com/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravinggg Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Arvor boats are stunning rigs but I've never been on one and after owning a few plate alloy boats, I would not go back to glass. I've never been on a Profile as they're quiet rare here as there is no NSW dealer and they're very dear - even more so than the Stabis. Also they don't have any Center Cab options. But they certainly have a good reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the skipper Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I have my dream boat but it now needs to be the bigger version a Sailfish S8 Platinum but I do not have $250k which mind you I would pay in a heart beat given the opportunity so I will settle with my 6m Reef Runner. On top of that there is the cost of the truck to tow it Dodge Ram or F250 so throw in another $120k plus the mods I would make to the boat and call it a cool $400k there we go, done and dusted For those who have not experienced a twin hull once you do you won't go back in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some guys put bigger diesel donks in them but still only get 22 knots out of them. I guess its just how a displacement hull goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our VMR rescue boat is a 10m catamaran and im not sold on it. We are planning on going back to a mono hull RIB. They tip and sway way too much in rough weather. Feels like they are going to tip over!

Waza Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 My little Kevlarcat 5.2 eats Barcrushers for breakfast 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😜😜😜 Most people driving a twin powered cat need to throttle down the inside motor when turning , for a smooth transition of the crew through the turn. They will drop a hull in a chop running beam on too. But they are just safe , comfortable and stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest123456789 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 A stacer 429 rampage with wide gunnels fishing by yourself in an estuary. Boy they’re a lot of fun - I can think of no other vessel better suited to one man estuary fishing. And I prefer it to offshore fishing (and all the unavoidable hassle that brings no matter how large the boat or how many crew). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
