G'Day Davey,
Give Jimbo1 a PM, he has a 565 Ocean Whaler. He should be able to give you some good feedback.

western whaler
Personally wouldnt buy a western whaler, but the ocean whaler is good. Originally I was supposed to get the western whaler but yard was unable to deliver on a new vessel due to building delays so I ended up with the ocean whaler which is the larger and certainly superior vessel for similar deseign. Even now I like the idea of upgrading one day to a 6.5 mtr ali boat.

If you want more details just PM me.
