Well the new boat arrived and its awesome. Replaces Tiger Boat I posted on 15th May.
23 foot Carolina Cat center console. Twin 115 Suzuki's.
Only been out once but it did not have to slow down in 20 knot Darwin Harbour afternoon chop, and also fished well in 300mm of water.

The dealer site suggests 35km/h at cruise and 68km/h at WOT with 115 Yammys so I expect similar could be expected with Suzuki.

Big plus is that it has a range at cruise speed of 470km with 2 x 182 litre fuel tanks. So some extended trips are on the cards.

This is the new rig. Quintrex Fishseeker 600 with a new Honda 100hp fitted by Scottie from BH Marine who did a great job.

The boat has Custom casting decks, Dolphin T-Top, Plenty of underfloor storage etc and a modified rear transom. Twin HDS10 Gen2 with structure and side scan, 100L underfloor fuel storage. Custom rear steps added for our bin and extra fuel.
It has been replated to accept the 100hp as the boats are only rated to 80hp from factory.

It is about to go into Custom Concepts for a new Alloy Floor, additional 110L fuel tank, Lined rod locker for 8x 6'6'' barra outfits. Rod locker for 4x 7'6'' spin outfits, 5 tray lure storage, rewire, kill bin, deck wash, Casting deck extention, new console and t-top modifications along with led lights etc etc... A lot of work about to start......

All in all a good platform that handles the chop very well and is big enough to go where I want. Also would have to be the driest boat I have ever sat in.
