looking for a side console 4-4.5m boat and found the procraft $13,000 side console with a 30hp 2 stroke

does anyone know much about these boats

the other option is a 2nd hand polycraft

To be honest,
procraft $13,000 side console with a 30hp 2 stroke in my view is very under powered and you will regret the buy
a 2nd hand polycraft , = depending on what Poly. if a 4.1 with a min power of a 60hp you'll be right. any less is under powered as they are heavy and a wet ride in my view.

look for a 435 Hornet or similar with a 50 + hp donk.

look around 13k is a lot in a buyers market.

Not sure where you located but my Dad said that there is a nice one at Brisbane Yamaha.

I've got a 4.1 poly with a 50hp suzuki and can't rate it highly enough it hits 27 knts with two blokes and a full live well,It is twice as dry as my old 4m hornet and I was able to pick my 2007 model with a bow mount minn kota and a lowrance hds5 for less then your budget.
