Surtees 5.5 workmate

摘要

The hardtop trend is so strong in offshore fishing at the moment that boat buyers are seriously looking at hardtops, even in boats below the six-metre size range where they're usually found. Getting hardtops to function in a boat under six metres is not easy, you're effectively trying to get a high 'lid' structure on boat, which may be less able to support the windage and pendulum effect of weight high up. However, not surprisingly, the Kiwis across the Tasman have been able to achieve this with some of their smaller boats. One of the best I've seen is the Surtees 5.5m Workmate. This was a new design that hit the Kiwi market last year and has since come across the Tasman to Australia.
