Show me what you got?

Sales
Sales are going great guns atm. Boat yards cant get enough stock either.
Not so good as a buyer but great as a seller. Seems to be plenty of money around for some reason.

Ally v glass
Have you been for a fang in a Trailcraft?. A mate of mines got one and every time I get back to land I feel an inch shorter due to the ride. There's plenty of excellent glass boats around these days ( and they don't corrode... :)

I used to be as tall as you until I started going in aluminium boats
I reckon baron sportsmans are a great riding boat for their size. Back friendly.

If you have back probs I would stay away from ally . I have a swift craft and I don't have any probs even tho my back is shot. Had 1 trip out on a ally a while back and suffers for days
