Customer Testimonials

Mark Houliston
Date: Sep 03, 2010


Hi Matthew & Russell, Just a quick line to let you know that my first trip out on the Allison was fantastic. I put in at Victoria Point and headed out through the south passage for a spot of fishing on the reef. The weather was good, winds 10-15 with a fair bit of chop but the boat handled really well. I have contacted Allison boats re the fitting of the larger fuel tank and they seem really friendly and only too keen to assist. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you both for looking after me and giving me your help and support throughout this boat buying experience. I would have no problem in using you again in the future and will talk highly of you when talking to my many boating friends. Thanks
