Toonalook providing on water demonstrations to 2 keen wooden boat enthusiasts at the Geelong Wooden Boat Festival 2010. Surfing across Corio Bay in 25 Knots of Southerly, with 3 adults on board.

 

Plans for this type of boat probably never existed as the old timers used to build by eye. In the early 1990's Naval Architect David Payne took the lines from Sydney's original licensed fishing boat ‘Cinema’ LFB1and drew up plans for amateur construction. Toonalook has fine sea keeping qualities, built using modern wood epoxy technology to produce a strong, seaworthy vessel of longevity, durability and with minimal maintenance requirements, FH Boats have certainly met their stringent design brief. Toonalook has crossed Bass Strait from Lakes Entrance to Hobart under her own steam to feature at the Wooden Boat Festival in Tasmania.

 

This amazing 20ft trailerable boat can be custom built to your own requirements. Her Yanmar 8YM20 deisel engine consumes just over 1.5 litres p/hr @5-6 knots, this is possibly the perfect trailerable lakes and bay, day boat or weekender. In today's ever increasing fuel price spiral, this is a family boat that makes real sense for environmentally conscious fishermen and weekenders. Retirees seeking a lightweight and stable cruising boat should consider a Toonalook, decked out for extended stays on our coastal and inland waterways. Extended hardtops and full covers are available to greatly increase living space and comfort on a Toonalook.
