IN THE MARKET FOR A TINNY
Submitted by max199 on Sat, 2007-04-07 20:25
G'Day every body, I am in the market to buy a tinny. Does any body know of a good dealer who have a good range of tinnies in Perth? Something I can take out to the ocean. Probably fish atleast two people most times maybe three. Is pressed or plate ali better as I've been in a plate tinny before at Kalbarri. CHEERS.

My Tinny
G'Day Maxy,
Might be selling mine in about 4 weeks time if your interested. Be ashamed to see it go but I'm starting to think about an upgrade now that my daughters are getting bigger.

5.5-6m
I'm looking for something around the 5.5-6m mark. What I'm looking at and what I can afford are two different things at the moment, but hopefully I can bring them together. :)

Lots of choice in that range BJ
I think you will be spoilt for choice.
There were some nice "newcomers" at the hillaries boat show that turned a few heads. Not sure how they would be on the water though, but some awesome designs in that range.
Good luck, as we have said before its all about compromise and getting the boat that satisfies your prime criteria, be it fishability, ride comfort or something totally different.
Look forward to seeing what you picked out.
Cheers
