Waveline 3.2m V Hull?

Post by Pete » 27 Mar 2017, 16:14

Hello Chaps :D Does anyone have any experience of these SIBS? Glasgow Angling have them priced at £599.00, quite a bit cheaper than anyone else, I've seen them advertised up to £759.95...It wouldn't be the SIB of choice if I had the money, but I don't, so searching for half decent boats at bargain prices.

Seem fairly popular and seem to hold up ok. This is a used one on ebay looking okay apart from some yellowing

I bought a Wetline 260 ECO brand new, then after a few years sold it to PeterM on here, then when he wanted to sell it on I bought it back. Still using it as a tender for my sailing yacht.

Appreciate the help chaps :D So the Waveline isn't too bad a SIB then! It's between this and the Excel SD330, which I would prefer although it's quite a bit more...

Hi Pete. I had a Waveline 310 - my 1st SIB. had it 3 years and sold it 7 years ago met the new owner a year ago and it's still going strong! I used that SIB a LOT, up to 1.5 mile offshore fishing with a Yam 5hp 2 stroke.

That sounds good warder54. I'm looking at a 6HP and I doubt I'll be going as far offshore. Was it a V hull on the 310?

No but it did have an inflatable keel under the floor, tracked well and was very stable and felt safe. We had 43 fish one day off Arbroath and only 22 were Mackerel!

I have a pic somewhere and a video of us heading out in fairly big (for a small SIB) seas. Will post tomorrow if I can find them.
