CUSTOM 6.8M CENTRE CONSOLE TOUR | Oceanic Fabrications WA | Rough Conduct

[@Wadepapenfus]

YESS LADS EPIC WORK!!

[@stephenmyers4319]

Atm I've got a side console an had been thinking I want a center cab next. I've always hated center console boats but man this thing has blown my mind

[@FNQOutdoorAdventures]

What an absolute rig. Everyone has different styles of boats and this one is right up there with exactly what I want in a 6.5m. Well done on your build mate. Love it.

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate, glad you like it and it goes as good as it looks👌

[@FNQOutdoorAdventures]

@@excessivefishingaustralia2849 i bet mate. Well done.

[@ianmcintosh9125]

Good vid dude, really interesting...

[@crazy88s]

In the process now of getting a new CC built. I think I am going to steal some ideas :) . Great boat.

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate, yeh go for it, it’s a Killa setup👌

[@ghalihitmi]

What an incredible boat, amazing set up, very well thought and built😍💪🎣only thing i would add is a live well

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate, thanks for watching, and I really appriciate your feedback. Over here in WA we dont really fish with live bait so wasnt really nessesary to add to the boat. If I fished over east then I would definately add a live bait tank:)

[@forrealfishing4300]

Very nice boat mate

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks alot mate and thanks for watching:)

[@anthonywoodward9592]

Awesome setup 👍 must be stoked with it

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate, heading away in a few days on our first trip in the new setup, so hangin to get amongst it🍻🎣

[@scoobs6036]

Saw this rig down on the Mandurah canals lately. Bloody weapon.

[@cartlox2862]

Omg that is an amazing boat I think you just converted me to a centre console boat

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate and thanks for watching.

[@pinkyheaven1498]

Great video mate learned a bit of stuff I didn’t know before 🤟👍👍

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks for watching mate 🍻

[@merdel9663]

Awesome video, we are up at osprey in 2 weeks for a couple of weeks, if I see ya out the front I'll have to say hello and have a look at this beast. We have an oceanic build hopefully starting in jan

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Yeww too easy, be sure to pop round 👍🏼

[@sampentelow5966]

Thanks for the walk through. Good stuff. I’d like to build something like that so will give OF a call. Thanks

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

No probs mate, thanks for watching🍻

[@MrJasperspool]

Noice setup

[@samuelspencer2254]

Can you show us how the side clears are fixes in place when they are down.

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Yeh will have to be in a coupla mths, I’ve left it up north till then👍

[@ianmoone2359]

Nice enough build. Not bad topping out around $120k. Do you know if Oceanic Fab & Bill Plug will incorporate my hull design features how I want it or can I only select from the monohull designs they already have on their books? Thinking something around 6.0 meters asymmetric cat with Hysucat foil & float / drive on alloy trailer. Twin 200’s

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks Ian, give Aris a call on 0451196399, he will answer all your questions🍻

[@CalaisRider]

WOW

[@mellowfellowful]

Mint boat, reckon the 200hp would be enough for a full forward cabin 6.8?

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Cheers mate, yeh the 200hp would be ok, you will get 38kn out of it, a 250hp will get you to the 40kn mark👌

[@callumward1277]

Wicked boat mate came up awesome.. everythung setup how up how you wanted 👌... next build how about the v12 merc? 😁😁

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks Callum, how good are those V12s👌 2 would be nice😉

[@brettjeffery1972]

What a great boat mate. I just have one question though. Sitting out there fishing for hours in the blistering heat it looks like just about every where you would sit would rip your skin off? Am I wrong?

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Nah it’s not to bad, up front there’s no protection, but down back it’s fine👌

[@joelbooth6973]

Sick boat mate been waiting to have a full walkthrough. How much all up it cost you as a rough figure?

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Hi Joel, thanks for watching. Total cost for the completed setup is around the $120g mark.

[@leemccullough558]

Good review nice thought out boat practical and very nicely laid out ive seen similar boats at twice the price so your pricepoint is spot on nt over 200k like a lot of the others are a question how much does it weigh all up fuelled and loaded how much fresh water on board and i really like the bar round the motormercury make a 400v8look at that i own a merc and its great 2019mod your fuel economy is great and consider two v6s with four blade props youll hold better at sea following or running side on thank you for your vid well done 😊😊😊😊regards from n.s.w 😊

[@jaydenlagana4566]

Awesome build. I’m in WA and chasing some seats. Can I ask where you got those ones from?

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate, I got them from JPW in Perth, they have a web site

[@alexfavazzo4532]

What transom lights are you running? Are you happy with them? Boat is insane!

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Hi Alex, thanks mate.They are the same as the front, 2led STEDI work lamps and they are perfect👌

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Sorry mate, I just realised your talkin about the underwater lights, they are narva underwater leds and they are mint for the price, they are around $175 each👍

[@rollyb5061]

top boat, would you go twin 200 mercs on the new build

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate,Nah Ive decided to go the 350hp single.

[@rollyb5061]

@@excessivefishingaustralia2849 I will give Oceanic and have a look at their range of boats as i have a Stagg 7-6 mt twin 175 Suzies on it and its time to look at a new boat, Cheers Rolly

[@ianmcintosh9125]

What steering brand and autopilot did you use? They are obviously compatible but would you recommend the two? Thanks.

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Hi mate, I use the Simrad gear, it’s the best value for money autopilot on the market. Pretty much most steering helms will be compatible with the Simrad autopilot setup👍

[@ianmcintosh9125]

Thanks Dude, I appreciate that. I was a aluminium boat builder years ago and have retired, and so lost touch with what technology is leading. Thanks again. Ian

[@emuisland5821]

I love it! Is this one 2.5 wide? Curious about your towing weight. Planning similar size boat with a 200 series

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Hi mate, yeh 2.5m wide. Not sure on the exact towing weight, going to weigh it this week so will let ya know👌

[@fabionguyen1454]

Hey man, how many people can you have on the 6.8m boat as well as the 8.5m, I am about to order one and how good are Oceanic Fabrication boat

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Hey mate, we fish 6 people off my 6.8, check out my other you tube vids of our last trip up north. Oceanic fab boats are as good as any other plate boat on the market, they are in the process of building my 3rd👌👌

[@6knots6]

My dream boat , I dream of this

[@chevyda8070]

Wicked build mate well thought out👍 you putting the logix bag on the boat? I got the 1250 bag wicked wicked bag, but spewing it's a little big for my boat. Didn't think it would be that big when you think 1200. But it's huge. Oh well just deal with it 😂👍🎣🎣

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Thanks mate, yeh definitely will be, love the logix gear. I have the 1200 which is perfect for this boat and also the 950, which is what we use on the skis, sounds like what you need👍🎣

[@donninguyen5237]

What's your reason to opt without the electric anchor?

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Hey mate, that would be a nice addition, no particular reason why really, maybe in the future I might go down that track🎣👍

[@6knots6]

Are those steady lights stainless and the inside lights what brand cheers

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Yeh they are stainless but as with all Chinese lights the stainless is not as good as quality stainless. The inside lights are NARVA👍

[@6knots6]

@@excessivefishingaustralia2849 yer the stainless these days is crap, I will probably get a few of the lights for my build hopefully

[@fattyp7785]

approx trailer cost? I need a new one for my 6.8 center consol.

Hi mate,Roughly $11000 for everything then we assembled it!

Hey mate im currently in the process of looking for my next build, Do you know if oceanic fabrication will do water testing?

Impressive! Do you build these boats to order..? Or do you just do it for yourself..?

Thanks mate, just building them for myself for now🎣

[@ryanzammit1]

Whats the cost of thats as is?

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Around the $120g mark

[@davesoltoggio3280]

Your wrong about they don’t do a new engine in the V8 over 300hp! Try 450R V8 supercharged! Plenty of these burning around In USA 🇺🇸 Try putting a Jack plate on your rig if your looking for better fuel burn 🔥

[@excessivefishingaustralia2849]

Like I said they don’t do a 350 in the new v8 platform. The 450r is a supercharged race bred engine. That is not in the same platform. I don’t want to go supercharged for what we do🍻

[@davesoltoggio3280]

@@excessivefishingaustralia2849 15-25lb per HP is where you need to be! 15lb is a great benchmark and your right about mercury V6-V8 being the new benchmark for fuel burn. Good review Highly recommend Enertia eco in 16in dia or 4in-6in Jack plate if you want more mpg! Tight lines 🛥🦑🎣

[@gobargau9011]

So much for not going back to carpet! Wonder what the DCDeck boys did wrong?

What are you talkin about?????
