I agree with Tony, the spectre is the best running of the 30' cats on the market, especially if you want to take it in some rougher water.

Spectre Series

Default Thank you...

Good afternoon Mat
Many thanks for your reply, appreciate comments but not looking for top speed just a day boat that will fit us all in and get us from A2B safely, i guess these handle the chop well, but having never been in a Cat I was a little unsure on how they cope with 3/4ft chop offshore, we do have the odd flat day over here but not many. Experience to date has been in a 21ft Ring, Deep V with 225 on the back...
Best regards,
Simon

These boats are great. We won the Australian championship in ours.
We had to do some serious hull and tank work when it arrived from the States but now its Bullet proof.
It held the 2004 speed record when Bryan Haunt owned it at 118 mph
I believe the new DW 32 do that now but not bad for a 30 ft boat using 2004 props.
Check it out if you like.

It was built as a race boat, not a poker run boat so has re enforced canopy and roll bars, but still has room for two more seats.

Like I said Great boats.
