Hey don't dis the Kingfisher.
I love mine. Spend 50 days a year on it.
Been to Rupert and back many times. There are better riding boats but you can't beat the live aboard comfort for a 30.
Diesel heat, stove, hot water, head, shower, fridge, big bunk.
13 gallons an hour at 30 mph.
We take my buddies tuna fishing out of Westport every year. 100 miles out 3 years ago. There are better boats for sure but for a lot more money. I'll take the crappy welds and the great mileage any day.. always try to see the good side of things, before I put my opinion on this forum lol, what is always in the back of my mind when it comes to welded aluminum is it only take one crappy weld to sink your 100-200k boat, this is why I always scope all the welding, I remember one of the member on this forum lost his new boat over a cracked weld
