Only pics I took.
At 54k for just the hull. Plus another 40k per outboard and another 15-20k for the trailer. It wasn't looking cheap.
Plus all the other electrics and stuff

The cruise crafts were pretty sick I must say.
Seen a few bream boats I wouldn't have minded. And also the extreme centre console that was nice.

Was nice to see quite a few different boats there. And also had a good chat to the guys from.polycraft about up coming models and few other poly boat related things
The blatantly obvious cut down Haines 760 hull with a different top deck slapped on top?
Asking the wrong person. Sorry man.
Apart from the obvious fact they are made by Haines I got nfi about them apart from the fact they did look awesome
That's all they are. Identical hull specs and shape except for its length. The 21 looks like a cut down 675. The promised 19 will probably just be a 600 hull and the 17 a 535 profish hull with 'retro' looking top decks.

I'll take the original Haines versions or a modified Apache hull instead
You need a 9-10 foot rod to clear the outboards when snapper fishing and good luck if you had a barrel on with a 5’6 rod and it changed direction and went around the back corner of the boat.
Haven't seen it in the flesh. Was disappointed when I seen the pictures. Give me other boats first any day of the week

None of those sound like good tow vehicles, and are therefore useless to me :a_goodjob:

Not as a tow car.
As a muscle car to show off
