Can’t remember seeing any promo girls.

The cruise craft f360 was dead sexy. The signature 788 was a weapon. The southern formula 24 looks good but would be a p**** to fish out of. The 21 looks like a choad.

Couple of blokes I was with dropped a small fortune on simrad 12” evo 3 setups which look absolutely amazing even if the transducer is the size of a house brick.

I would have thought a unit like that you would select a transducer most suitable to the fishing your doing.

What’s the transducer model?

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

My boat looked miniature when I came home and looked at it after being at the boat show.

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
