Thats been out about a year
Thats been out about a year now, released to big fan fare.
Think there was one at the Auckland Boat Show a few months back when I was there but I forgot to check it out, got waylaid by the OXE300 instead!

The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.

I found your thread about
I found your thread about building a trailer. I was looking at one of the Billy plug 7.5's on Saturday. Pretty boat.
How did you go about getting the design? Did you buy a package that came with drawings or did you get the design from the man himself?
I am trying to see details but all I can get from builders is scanned PDF's GA's which are useless for the detail I want (I want to know if I can sleep in the cab hence wanting dimensions)

Bill doesn't deal with the
Bill doesn't deal with the public, and his cut files only cover hull plates, frames, transom, foredeck and cabin sides. Long story short I did a knee so got a boat builder I know to make a start with that. Bill works for the same mob as I do.
A lot of work on top of that first bit, I'm lucky I have good mates in the game but it's still a long slog.
Loving it but a long way to go, trailer is as far as I can go until hull sits on it.
To be honest other than satisfaction and time Oceanic is the go.

Volvo Penta bought them out and promptly shut them down. Must of been a parent they really wanted.

must have been a good product and proper risk to their production to shut it down like when Toyota and GM were buying patents for electric vehicles.
