Ask Carpets , he has one.

Good solid angling boat.

I have one of these and find it a great boat very capable in bad seas ! a few snags with it mine had screws holding in the windows stainless screws into aluminium inserts dissimilar metal corrosion between the two caused the aluminium to corrode , expand and cracks appear around the screw holes ! only other snag with it is in semi rough seas they throw a lot of water up while steaming don't leave too much gear on the deck while going from one fishing spot to the next . i have the nanni engine which is great but have heard rumours that the volkswagon engine isn't the best .

thanks lads for the pointers yeah we done a bit of research on them and alot dont recommend the vw engine. he not sure what to go for at the mo its between arvor 20 ,, and the quicksilver 630 pilot house but deffo a pilot house type.

Carpets Arvor has the Nani 5cyl Turbo inboard on her.
Hasnt had any problems with it so far(touch wood).

His computer is sick at the minute, but if you have any questions il pass them on for you.

He should consider the Jeanneau Merry fishers too --- a very good boat.
