Karnic 1-55 Review

Karnic a smart option Centre console from Cyprus right at home in Australian waters Cyprus is known internationally more for ship owning than boatbuilding, but the country was producing boats before Euclid drew his first triangle.

Built in China for WA conditions

Chinese-built aluminium boats have had mixed press. According to current wisdom this is at least partly due to a history of little experience wit both aluminium and boats. The two Searano dinghies reviews here, thought, clearly incorporate a lot of Australian know-how. To start with, the weld quality shows real experience with the material and […]
