The boat has been unreal so far. Tapey (my sheller)
and myself think that she's probably the best boat we've ever been
in, and that we'd be able to take her out nearly any day in any
weather and still feel safe in her. It's so stable and the ride
is unbelievable. Been in a few situations now where we've come out
of it and just gone "WOW". Have had heaps of comments
on it to. Everyone I talk to reckons she looks unreal and I tell
them that the performance is also unreal. Oh and I've even had a
lot of comments on your trailer too, I tell them it's one of a kind.
Thanks Rob and team for such a great boat, hopefully one day in
the not too far future we can do business again. And if you're ever
over this way again don't hesitate to give us a call.

fishing vessel |

A keen Port Lincoln commercial abalone
fishing company needed a vessel with plenty of deck room, stable
at rest and a well-performing sea going work boat. His choice was
a 7.3 Global Marine design Air Rider. It is simple, beamy and maximises
usable deck space.
