Nice. I will be interested to follow this. I looked at these and Galeforce but went with a different option in the end.
Do you mind sharing your decision making process as to why you settled with this one? |

Going to be epic. I get the feeling the new rig won't just be getting used for bream fishing

I'm gunna love this thread! I was on their website last night having another think. I visited the factory a couple of months ago and was impressed with their attitude and build qualities. The falling dollar has made it a lot harder to justify that Key West I have my heart set on.

I went with a Crossxcountry.
I wanted glass as well after have alloy for the last few hulls. It was locally built to where I am so I had peace of mind with keeping an eye on things. I know a bit about the vacuum infusion technology they use so I had no hesitation regarding the build method. I think the Bonito are a well constructed boat but at the end of the day, I was after something a bit smaller and lighter to make handling by myself a little less troublesome. Cheers, Rhet. |
