Peter,

Great pics. Are you fishing out of the contender? Looks nice. I am very interested in getting a 23 open. What are your thoughts about the 21?

George

it is the best offshore boat ,will find.its only 21 ft ,but feels like a 24ft boat,a dream to fish out of.these boats are all high preformance boat,so you have to dive them hard and fast,these hulls perform best at 35mph and over.only thing about the 23t is the sides are lower than the 21 and 23 open at the back .this boat is one of 2 in townsville,its my mates.

we  were followed by jobfish every cast for and hour,they would  just bump the popper ,then stay under the boat.There were bigger ones there,we would have droped about 6 jobfish.
