Surtees thought of that. Bar Crusher used to be a manufacturing agent of Surtees. Surtees sent the pre cut alloy over and Bar Crusher made them up and sold them as Surtees. Even the name Bar Crusher was taken off Surtees. Bar Crusher was a Surtees 6.1m model. Wow 😮 There was a fall out and Bar Crusher took the designs and started making the boats on there own. Surtees did not have their international patents sorted properly and Bar Crusher got away with it. So yeah, Bar Crusher, good boats makers but not innovators. Surtees are the boat designers. If you don’t believe it, compare the two boats if you ever see them together.
Yeah I'm aware of the history... It's an interesting situation hey! Ohwell seems like there is room in the market for both brands to prosper which is good.
@@lcardinal9073 Not true mate, water ballast hull systems have been a thing for ages, there was a plate boat builder in NSW that was doing it long before Barcrusher.
@@BaitBallinowning a boat is hard and expensive work. But it’s worth it to me. My boat is similar size and I’m waiting on my DF200a currently. Took 8 months to get nowadays. Geeze.. no complaints though I’m sure I’ll be happy with it after watching your video and many others. Thank you for what you do sir. It really helps.
Congrats on a really nice boat. I've got the 615 HT and have had it for nearly 2 years. Yes , very comfortable boat and the Suzuki outboard is gold. Had mine off shore down to Portland on the tuna and handled the big sea real nice. Your gonna have some real good fun in that thing and I reckon you've covered all the options. Real good review. I have the Bar flap which allows me to trap water in or out and have found it very handy in choppy water and is something you can have fitted later if you wish. How much was your boat if you don't mind me asking. Mine cost 80k. Can't wait to see some fishing vids!
Hey yeah can't go wrong in these things! Love them. Hard top all the way. Each model up goes up ALOT in price unfortunately, won't get one of these well set up for less than 115k in reality
I'm about to order one of these. Can't bloody wait!
Awesome!!!
Honestly. The blokes that thought of putting a huge hole in the hull. Bloody legends.
Agree. Game changer, should be standard on all boats.
