Found your great channel! What a treat this Harbour Classic is. In my eyes, one of the prettiest boats out there.

Cheers! Yep i think this Harbour Classic is a boat you would keep for a long time. It's cool, comfortable and you can still enjoy it in all weather conditions as she's very stable

Thanks Dan. I've seen adds for these boats and never really "rated" them as at rest they appear to be down by the bow & I thought the hull might be lacking - your vid tells a different story and just proves that test driving is critical to understand a boat. Seems like you really liked it.

Hi Tony! I also paid little attention to these the first year or so they were released but yes i was pleasantly surprised as she's got everything you'd want and need to meet that modern classic style and she it absolutely smooth and comfortable through the chop so if that's important to you then this is a boat to look at. Cheers for the feedback.

Dan, I’ve been going through your videos and this beauty appeared. Of the down east hull designs, I am really loving this make. Outboards could make this boat even better, but I wonder about weight distribution and needing to keep that nose down like it should be. Can this handle ocean coastline? You are doing a great job and thank you. Keep those videos coming. Drew from the U. S.

Can you do a video with your top 3 boats in several categories?

@BoatLife_DansBoatLife 2 жыл бұрын

Yes i'm thinking about all of these kinds of videos so good suggestion. Probably when i've tested some more boats and have even more personal experiences behind the helm i think i'll be in a position to choose. My problem is i love boating and would want more than 3 boats lol

Thanks Dan I was the guy who nagged you about the test drive video for this boat so I appreciate you taking the time to edit it and upload it. I didn't hear you mention the speed with the throttle wide open but I'm guessing around 25? Thanks again for the great content and keep doing what you're doing.

Hi Matt! No worries at all. You're right i didn't mention it. SHe was around 25kts WOT and with a clean bottom i'd say max 27kts WOT. I'll keep making if you guys keep watching so thanks for the support.

Dan, would you get a noticeable noise drop with those rear cabin doors closed? Or is that noise coming through the floor? Just thinking about that drone on long coastal trips.

@BoatLife_DansBoatLife 2 жыл бұрын

She’s a big old donk under the floor so you will notice it however yes you would still get a noise reduction with doors closed 👍

@@BoatLife_DansBoatLife I like the single-engine from an economy point of view, however, i think she would be perfectly suited to a paid of D4 300's

Any idea of the price on the classic?

@BoatLife_DansBoatLife Жыл бұрын

I would budget around $1M AUD and maybe more when including extras. Follow the links to the dealers website in my video description for accurate pricing as inflation is hammering everyone so it's changing regularly.

Thank you for your effort. A nice boat. As to my personal preferences, with the due respect, it would be definitively better if you said the same with half of the words and, if possible, if you stand during the boat tour (usually you sit everywhere).
