Steve Morgan and Streaker Marine's Shaun Savage take the Cruise Craft 595EX, powered by a 200HP Yamaha 4-stroke, out for a run on Port Phillip Bay to get some performance numbers.
Said it before but still no toilet in there, hard to stay on the boat for the weekend or be family friendly. $110k offshore boat with a hook 7?? Anyone that's going to seriously use this boat would surely put a 10/12" simrad or similar in
There’s so many nice boats but I’m thinking about getting a Stabicraft 2100 supercab because my budget is around $100k, I’ve seen some for around $112k . How do they compare to fibreglass boats?
Hi Jeff, Stabi make a brilliant boat as do Cruise Craft. In regards to performance it is very difficult to compare plate to fibre glass. I actually work for Streaker Marine & we have a demo day coming up & we will have a range of Cruise Craft Boats & Yellow Fin Plate Boats. If you would like to give us a call we can email you through the registration form & we can get you on a plate boat & a CruiseCraft. We are located in Melbourne Vic & our demo day will be held on port phillip bay. Other wise i am more than happy to have a chat with you in regards to some key differences with plate vs fibreglass. Regards Josh
Cruise Craft is the Crown Lager of boats. Seen as premium by the older generation, seen as a dinosaur by the modern buyer.
What do you recommend?
I think the soft top is a much better look on the 595 than the hard top. Great boats.

All options boxes that can be ticked.
Demo boat I suppose
