What can you tell me about kiwi kraft ? l've heard good things about them that they ride really well ?? the hulls are built strong??? . But they lack in space & seem like they are more suited to diving where l'd be fishing most of the time ?? bummer i guess it's pretty hard to find the perfect boat

How big is your family and what kind of boating are you wanting to do?  ie fishing on lakes harbours, going out wide, towing toys for kids as well?]]> Sun, 27 Aug 2017 17:03:54 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59036&PID=1699648&title=boat-reviews#1699648 <![CDATA[Boat Reviews : Welcome aboard.

Welcome aboard. A Mac 570 could be within the budget. I've been out in a few and found them really stable/safe but not the most comfortable ride IMO. Esp if you've got a bad back. Others may disagree so keep an open mind. ]]> Sat, 26 Aug 2017 19:17:38 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59036&PID=1699568&title=boat-reviews#1699568 <![CDATA[Boat Reviews : Hi Et Welcome to the forum.I personally...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59036&PID=1699561&title=boat-reviews#1699561 Author: Muzzfishing

Hi Et Welcome to the forum.
I personally have not owned a pontoon type boat best advice is to try a few different ones out.  A mate of mine has a 589 Stabicraft hardtop awesome family boat, has high sides and rides well. Unfortunately is more than double what your budget is.
