Great boat test awesome boat, boats today cost allot of money therefore a proper boat test is a must they must be tested in heavy or choppy seas its the only way to do it right

Thanks for that comment. I have plenty more in store for you guys

The boat is bottom painted, so it runs faster without bottom paint. Nice job on this walkaround. Thank you for the excellent test.

[@BoatLife_DansBoatLife]

Correct! I should probably mention that in future videos now you make me think of it, thanks. I've e=seen speed difference of between 2 - 4kts extra without antifoul on different boats. Thanks for the idea

The New Catalina 28 will look better on those beautiful Australian seas ;)

Very nice. I had an old one very similar, but smaller, in Antigua for running guests around island to island. The weight was it's friend, made the ride sublime.

Antigua... another destination I must explore on this channel!

Where is this filmed ? The place is beautiful

[@BoatLife_DansBoatLife]

This is filmed at my home city, Sydney, Australia. I have not found a more beautiful harbour city around the world yet. Highly recommend a visit - everyone is friendly here.
