[@onesixmotosportgaming]

[@BrisbaneYamaha]

Ok

[@onesixmotosportgaming]

Thank you@@BrisbaneYamaha

[@alextragakis2156]

We ordered one, get it next week. Can’t wait to rip it up. Can you make video of it in the rough please destroying it? Cheers

[@BrisbaneYamaha]

Yes trying it’s the drones that make it hard need no rain and wind under 30

How does the actual hull length compare to say my 2002 Patriot 680? How does the space compare on cabin and on the deck? Thanks.

[@BrisbaneYamaha]

Everyone loves 680 patriots Was a dream boat of mine Almost same length Bigger cabin More deck space Very different boats there been so many improvements Still want a patriot

[@jb243wp]

After owning a HH Patriot I wouldn't recommend it, deck space on that size boat is ridiculously small, with poor performance on a decent head-on sea, good in a following.

[@gazzaeabc3805]

@jb243wp I found my Partiot deck space a bit small also, but the cabin was great for overnighting. Just want something a little longer, considering a 725sp.

[@jb243wp]

@gazzaeabc3805 The 725sp is a NZ model, 725 enclosed is the model manufactured here in Aust, the specs are slightly different, one big notable difference is the NZ model has only a 250 fuel capacity.. NZ model 100hp rating less. As where the Aust model has a 380lt capacity. I wouldn't even consider a vessel (over 7mtrs) that size with only 250lt fuel capacity, alright for bay fishing with the fam, pretty shitful for long weekend/ multiple offshore days fishing, and for overnighters. They do this to keep the tow weight down. Haines Hunter in Australia 7yr warranty Haines Hunter NZ only 5yrs. But surprisingly Haines Signature has 10yrs

@@jb243wp Thanks for clarifying that.

Does this ride aswell as a Bar crusher ?

[@BrisbaneYamaha]

Haines hunter are renowned for their big sea performance A 7m Haines hunter make a bar crusher look very average and almost dangerous

[@bobbuilder5362]

Hook, line and sinker 😀you owe me a t shirt !@@BrisbaneYamaha

[@sjsisdhdjdkssosjdhxnx]

Bar Crushers are also known as back crushers due to the very rough ride. Comparing a 675 Haines Hunter to a Bar Crusher or any 6-7m Plate boat is like comparing the ride in a Bentley to an unloaded Ute.

This was 100% sacrasm, and since Aaron decided to take a break at Christmas, he owes me a T Shirt !

[@sjsisdhdjdkssosjdhxnx]

@@bobbuilder5362 He owes me one too and a ham and pickle sandwich.

270lt fuel tank on that 675 offshore model just doesn't cut it these day's. What ever happened to the 100lt capacity for every 100hp rule of thumb?? C'mon on Haines Hunter, you built this for offshore fishing. Going on that extended long weekend fishing trip and doing overnighters, carrying extra jerry cans of fuel on board would suck paying that price😂 Least 350lts at a minimum please. Love the HH vessel's, their build quality and accessories. That 675 is certainly a great mid sized hull for going well out offshore, but putting that piss ant fuel capacity in this is a real turn off.
