Evolution Boats
Submitted by Watto069 on Thu, 2008-02-28 00:07
Hi All. I'm looking at buying a new boat. I have looked at Trailcraft ect and even though they are great boats there is 1 boat I haven't heard much about. Its an Evolution Titan 550. Does anyone out there know anything about these particular boats ie stability, Ride in rough seas, build quality ect. Any info would be a great help.
Cheers

watto, cant help ya about
watto, cant help ya about ride but regarding build quality, best thing to do is go to a boat show when all the boats you want to look at are in one place and compare the quality.l did that when the mandurah show was on. things to look at are the welds, the fitout and so on.you will be surprised at the difference from the worst boats to the best.ya get what ya pay for.

Yeh cheers Paul I used to be
Yeh cheers Paul I used to be a boat builder for Trailcraft so I know what to look for quality wise but quality doesn't always mean performance in the water. The hull shape on these boats look like they would give a good stable ride.

Evolution
Yeah I saw the evolution boats on one of those boat sales websites once and I tried to find out a bit more info about them but came up with nothing.
Tried emailing the dealer who had advertised it didn't get a response.
They look like really nice boats though.

I test drove an Evolution
I test drove an Evolution Centre cab 6.7m a couple weeks back,
Man AWSOME hull, the thing flies. The boat builder is located in Port Kennedy
EVOLUTION MARINE
U1/13 HELMSHORE WAY
PORT KENNEDY

PH – 9524 5590
Rob is the guy who owns it, and trust me, he gave us an awsome test on the hull with a 175 etec.
Im in the midst of buying one myself but close to 7m island cab, Dual 115 etec's
I work with a fe guys who own Evolution boats, and they cant fault the hulls. Rob takes great pride in his boat building and painting. He also paints many other brands of boats, of which i wont mention on here :)
Suggest giving them a call!
