Winner of the $80,0000 Extreme 545 Centre Console Prize Boat!
~Congratulations to Stuart Webb!~

Hamilton's Stuart Webb (right) is congratulated by DB Breweries' Eddie Commons on winning the Export Fishing Competition's main prize, an Extreme 545 Centre Console.

This year's prize is a versatile and stable Extreme Centre Console fishing weapon with the ability to fish four people comfortably, powered by a Honda 90hp to get the crew out and back safely, and without costing an arm and a leg in fuel. Pride of place on the dash is a Lowrance Elite FS 9", to help with the fish finding and navigation. Under the rig is a custom-built GFAB alloy trailer, customised to carry the centre console.
Finally, the boat is made comfortable with U-DEK decking throughout the vessel (which also provides a safer, grippier footing surface), while another stunning wrap from Brave Design personalises and protects the rig. The fishing department was not forgotten, with Stuart now the proud owner of a couple of Shimano combos for soft-baiting and jig fishing. The winner has everything he needs for his family and friends to enjoy time on the water.
A huge thanks to our sponsors that put together this amazing prize!
