Looks very smart, is it inboard diesel or petrol? also is that a loo built into the consul, looks a neat idea as the size of the consul does not look overly big either.

Thanks it is petrol 4.3L Mercruiser 220hp just like the power Yes it has a loo and a 2 berth cubby in the console! I'm also getting a table up front that converts to a sun lounger & a cover hood that encloses the back!

So I presume then you have a reasonable ammount of under deck space, good idea. Get the best of both worlds then. Expect it goes well too with that engine inboard. Quite planted in the water.

What's the box on the swim up platform for?

Hope you enjoy it.

The cabin or coffin goes all the way from the console to the front of the boat, as to the box I think it will be perfect for the kids bucket & spades! Keep all the sand out of my new boat!

Least it beats sleeping on an open deck. Plus having a decent bit of space with the Tonneau up is a great idea.

Nice boat though, no more Roughin it...

Also nice to see Genuine Boaties out there. It takes a big step to go indoors.
