G'day Guys, well we can finally let this cat out of the bag so to speak!
Polycraft are releasing their brand new 4.5 Runabout, with the standard features and benefits that go hand in hand with all Polycraft boats.
You will have to go to the website for photos, I will upload as soon as I can.
Take a look for your selves, this little forward control option will make the 4.5 a whole new experience for the budget conscious boat owners!
Tight Lines!

Well if Polycraft are known for one thing it's consistancy!
They consistantly build ugly boats... surely they could have come up with a better
looking runabout cockpit/screen design than that!
Is it that they have designers from the 1950's still working there? or is it that they dont care because they are the only plastic boat manufacturer producing boats in marketable numbers in Australia.
Maybe one day Triumph will reduce their pricing and become a competative force in Australia and make Polycraft sit up and take notice that they need to bring their products into the 21st century.

Looks lkie they have the seat hight right. I find in my 5.3 you are looking into the wheel, thats why I built the box draw under mine.

Dave the inspiration for the windscreen came from the 1962 Holden E.K. and we all know how ugly that car was.

mmm .... can't decide really ... I might be feeling a little too nauseous to comment at the moment. Good work for trying though. I guess the space inside is not that great?

I actually quite like the look of it.....
At least they got the colour of the hull and motor correct, thats a good start!!

I don't mind the look of it too much at all. At least they have brought out a hull that may keep some water off the occupants. And.........wasn't the FB/EK closely related in design to the most popular model Chevy of all.......the '57. Not that I'm biased, I was born that year.
Two vertical fins on the front deck of that boat, and it would look like a 57 Chev Bakerbill!.Best looking car ever !.

The girl in the passenger seat looks a big Barbie doll they have just plonked in there .laugh1 Awaits gutter comment from Noosa.
Ok, if that's what you want -
Gutter!
How do you get at the anchor?
I guess Bilge-pump-Barbie could clamber over the windscreen, but that would be very unlady-like.
Good point Chin !.Very disappointing Doug !
i dont know about you guys but my polycraft did not come with a deckhand barbie. Real shame, on second thoughts im glad the extra money was spent on the yammy 4st, deckhand barbie would have been broken by now. :)
Hey Keithy,what is that cartoon in the centre of your post,a Greenie disposal unit ?laugh1

I think thats how they make smilies Giffo, but it could be used for disposing of any undesirables I spose.
Mainly I just thought it was funny.

Look, you guys, if none of you want the Barbie passenger I'm prepared to take her off your hands. At my age, even with a latex allergy, I'm prepared to give her a "go", or as near as I can get to one.
Awaiting gutter response from Bundaberg Fire Service and Whorehouse P/L.....
If she is a blow up Barbie, she may go down.But they generally cost morelaugh1

The Barbie doll looks like a “Real Doll”. http://www.realdoll.com. Very nice BigFella you lucky sod, how much did she cost?
Even more important, you will have to tell us all what it’s like in bed with her?

back to the EK debate... here is a very nice EK... granted it is 'slightly' modified... what's not to like about this picture? apart from no barbie for doug to have a go at...
for a start the roof line is all wrong, and as for the bonnet, I'm not even going there
