Can't agree more FF, Why is it that NZ fisher folks are so obsessed with small pontoon designed boats. I personally like twin hulls because you get a much larger fish platform with out loosing stability, |

By memory the sizes went from around 4m to 5.5. I can always remember thinking, Hell you could fit two 12ft Fyrans inside the 4m one. |
