I've had pretty good luck
I've had pretty good luck with All Boats and Caravans. Difficulty is finding many Bar Crushers to look over as they seem to move pretty quickly. I was there the other day and at the moment there is a few in the shop.

All Boats and Caravans
As said before, All Boats are the dealer in Perth whilst Millard Marine are in Bunbury.
I think there is one further dealer in WA, although that's in the north west.
I was at All Boats arranging the electronics fit out on my new 615C last Wednesday, and they had a good selection in stock.
A few of the C's, HT's and even a WR model.
FISH ON!!!!!!

Cheers everyone.
The north west works for me, as im based in geraldton. Mandurah is def on the cards.. Managed to convince the cook that we should visit her friend for a "weekend away", then just play the ...ohh hunni, look- theres a boat show on ;)
Do all boats play the game with going out for a run to see how they really go?

Im still deciding between 670
Im still deciding between 670 and 730 - though for security reasons we will likely go with Pilot cab version.
Have you had one Quoted up yet?
maybe we can hit the same Dealer up for a two for one deal and split the difference hehe
Off to the show this weekend?

early morning
well,
The commy is packed and the dogs are over at the in-laws. Planning on hitting the road just prior to 3am to get down to the boat show with lots of time to spare.
Got a call from one of the lads @ all boats today to see if i was heading to the show. He then mentioned he spoken to the boss and had a pass for the missus and i to get in. Not bad marketing so far.
FAZ, ive looked at the cab option, but im really not a fan of a full lock up syle cabin. I am thou, goin with the idea of having a lockable bunk section, so on those trips away you still have the ecurity option.
ROB, Howd ya go with flights mate?

up the shit as usualCargo run
up the shit as usual
Cargo run tomorrow and tanker offtake so I wont be there
, not sure when I'll be home
Fully agree with your cab choice, fully enclosed would be too hot and stuffy for me.
Even for our winter Abrolhos trips just pulling down the clears is plenty to keep the wind off and I hate looking thru glass all the time while going thru the shallows, even worse is cleaning glass!

plenty of pics
ill try and get some good pictures for ya mate. Sucks that ya cant make it thou.
hot and stuffy is one thing, but i like to be down the back with beer/line in the water, and still be able to see my sounder. not to mention i think it takes away the "open" feeling and too tight in the cabin. talking with the gents that are taking some to the show tomorrow thou, will be good to crawl over one and see it first hand. even if order it now, wont get here till end of dec anyhow thou.

missus is happy with new pots and pans.
it took 800 bloody $$ to worth of pots and pans to get the missus to talk to me again, but came away from the boat show with a new best friend at "all boats & caravans" as well as a new BARCRUSHER 730 hard top. was in there today picking the last colours and trying to work out what electronics to go with.
Prob spent a bit to much, but ended up with a nice ally trailer set up with 5th wheel and extendable drawbar, an impressive machine with polished ally hull, charcoal externail cab, black internals, full transom with 2 live bait tanks, custom rocket launchers, young mans sound system, outriggers, SIMRAD NSE 12/1kw transducer, HDS10 gen 2, 4G radar & 2x 32ltr beer fridges for under 145k.
Not a big fan of the cabin style boat, but i did get the lock up style bunks for those trips north where ya need to pile the expensive stuff somewhere safe.

good news first, bad to follow.
worst part is that delivery is for 20th of Dec, i go back offshore on the 17th for a month. Then get back and due to head to broome for a week of barra fishing, then up to Darwin to catch up with the clan. They are going to hang off with installing the electrics untill im there, due to my OCD with that kinda thing. i wont get to use this thing properly untill March-ish next year.
Ive made a bit of a compromise thou, ended up with the new SUZUKI 250 as compared to the YAMAHA 250... Not sure if thats a good thing or not, but typical "small" towns are goverened by servicing abilities and attitudes.

sea trials
I hate to admit this, but when we went out yesterday afternoon in the shity weather, i tried my hardest to "break" the suzi, but it just wouldnt. Matched with a 4 blade prop, i needed to trim to motor up to the surface just about and lock 700 odd ltrs of ballast in to get it to even think about slipping.

there is nothing of note
there is nothing of note between the Yam or Suzi 4 strokes in any size nowadays that would stop me having either.
Not that I know of anyhow.

You won't be disappointed
You won't be disappointed with the Suzuki. We've got twin 140 on our 680HT. Did you get them to put a centre grab rail in the cabin under roof. Was recommended for ours and no regrets. We got the steering assist as well. Welcome to have a look at ours if you want. PM me or ring me you've got my mobile.
