Maverick Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I don't think a jump from a Raider to a Pirate is big enough to make much difference Saintly Fish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would need at least a 225, probably a 250.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicky Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Guy in our club has a pirate 21 with a cabin and a 115 honda on the back, cruises at 20 knots with no fuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDP Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) Deep V with max power, get there quick and have a heap of fun along the way.https://cootacraft.com.au Have a look at the other video with the link on the story of Cootacraft boats to see some of their faster models. Go 19ft with a supercharged 450 🙂 Edited August 11, 2021 by JDP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

headlight Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) So anyway I am looking for a new fishing boat (not a cruiser you can do a bit of fishing from. Ideally fast planing hull, 22-25ft pilothouse style (open backed wheelhouse if there is a drop down cover to enclose it considered), 20-22kts cruise, mid 30's kts at WOT, big outboard (150hp minimum on a 22 footer), budget up to £40k. If anybody knows of anything or sees anything suitable please let me know. Edited September 28, 2021 by headlight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
