Everyman Boats

Went to the boat show Saturday with the sole intention of finding a boat that ticks off most of my boxes.
Came across the Everyman stand and was more than a little impressed with the boats they had on show. The finish looked excellent and they seemed like a lot of boat for their sizes and the standard features were something alot of competitors has as an optional extra.
The 635ht got a good write up in the trader boat test.
So if anyone has got a Everyman boat, whats their thoughts on them.

Hi worksux, sorry cant help with any real expertise on these boats, but would like to back up your opinion of them, I was most impressed with them! I have spoken to two guys who own them, and they raved about them. Good luck if you are looking!
good boats dave - get one
I haven't been in one, they do look good, my brother said they go very well, he went for a sea trial with a 150 hpdi Yamaha and was very impressed, and they are well made, he works as salesman at cambridge marine, call him to have a chat about it.
Will the 635HT it fit in your garage Dave? Keen to hear how a trial goes.
Buy it Dave. I'll take you out for 187 bar crossing lessons (and we might do a bit of fishing each time) and you'll be Raglan qualified 
You know me Beags, the bar has to be as flat as my first girlfriend for me to cross it.
Scotty, done the deed and am going for the 6mHT, It won't fit in the garage either but it may if i go from the roller door to a sectional door, Just...... maybe.
Don't worry Dave, we can pick the flat days. Other days we'll take my boat.

No doubt, post number 1000 was a classic for Worksux !
Be keen to hear how they go in the rough with a 15deg deadrise. Looks like they claim that you don't need a deep V to get good heavy weather performance, and if true they have found one of boatings 'holy grails'. Would be great to line one up against one of the deep V equivalents on a rough day to get a real comparison and find out what their secret is in making a plate alloy hull that is superior to the rest.
Me too Tagit!
Buy a Surtess!!!!!

Look forward to checking the new rig out.! Knowing you Dave, you will already have plans for modifications
hi dave
I have been on an everyman boat and I can tell you its the most stable boat I have come across
The everyman 635 is an extremely versitile boat making it the ideal choice for families, it is roomy enough for a day's fishing with the whole family, and if the weather or sea turns rough it is a safe boat that handles well in adverse conditions.
With a teenage family it is nimble enough to have many hours of fun water skiing and biscuiting.
It is a boat that is easily handled into and out of the water by just two people.
I have owned an Everyman 635 boat for the last 18 months now and have already done 130 hours most of these have been at sea on the west coast out of Mokau.
Prior to this boat I have owned two others similar in size and I have been on many different types of boats, whether for fishing or diving. I took a punt on buying the Everyman 635 boat, not knowing how it would perform due to it being such a new brand of boat on the market, in the short time I have owned this boat it has exceeded my expectations. I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone.
In my conclusion I have been in and around many boats for I have a love for the sea, The Everyman boat is very well made which handles extremely well no matter what the conditions are.
Enjoy the long weekend
Regards
Jane

Nice post Jane, welcome to the site.
Thanks for that Jane, Like you I have a little nervousness on buying a newish brand but think, hell everyone has to has to start some where. Couple of reasons I have gone with the 6m HT, firstly I have had a fairly good look at the boat over the last couple of boat shows and liked what I saw, secondly, They are localy made so went to the factory and had a yak with the Nigel the guy who is building it, Good fella, ran over all the plans with me and had no worries when i asked if he could leave the HT off untill after a mate of mine paints the sides. Im in the States at the moment but as soon as I get back I will be down the shop checking its progress.
thanks captain aparagus.
