Thread: Boat upgrade, 14-15ft range

Currently running a Mac360, it's an awesome wee boat but limiting when the weather cuts up (wet/wind) especially going to Kapiti etc.
The boys are getting bigger 16 and 11, ok for the small lakes trout fishing but really got to the stage where something bigger is required.

So far I reckon something in the 14ft range would be ideal and still be easy enough to launch solo and fish shallow water, small lakes chasing Trout. Looking at Stabicraft 389, 1410, 1450 Frewza, Profile etc in similar sizes. Pretty set on pontoon style rather than V, centre console, cuddy or tiller steer would all be options.

Any experiences with the above boats or other recommendations? I realise the ride in the chop with the above boats can be a bit rough but priority is stability.

Cheers

James
