Fraser 590 cobia/all rounder opinions
Submitted by Paul_86 on Fri, 2014-01-24 15:58
G'day all,
Just chasing anyone's opinions who either have had or been on or have heard anything about a Fraser 590 cobia/all rounder. The boat in question is a 2004. I'm mainly curious to know what it's like as a sea going boat, and comparing the ride to my current boat, a Quintrex 480 coast runner.
Any opinions are appreciated!
cheers Paul

Cheers Joe very helpful
Cheers Joe very helpful thanks! How does it go when the sea breeze comes in? Say 15knot southerlies and a 1.5-2m swell on the way back from rotto? I'm comparing it to a 16ft ally runabout by the way
