- The new Veitch 23 console serves several masters. “It’s the test bed for the 23 hardtop,” Roger explains. “Everyone wants the hardtop. Once I built it, I knew I’d never get the chance to build a console, and I’ve always wanted to build a console. They’re a heap of fun, wind in your hair and great fun to fish out of. I also wanted a better priced boat than the 27, one that came in under 3.5 tonne. It’s a very aggressive boat, a lot like the 27, with a 26-degree deadrise, and it needs to be driven hard.”

A twin outboard 30-footer is almost always sexier, but from the perspective of an owner I'd imagine a twin outboard 23-foot 26-V is all you'll ever really need. Well done.
I saw it or a similar one on the road behind bunnings near the dog park in Bairnsdale. Its an absoloute stunning boat. The video doesn't do it justice. I stopped the guy and he said its made right here ... turns out I was outside the shop nearly. I said "oh I thought it was a Boston Whaler... " and the guy looked at me like I had stood on his mother's grave. Sorry! Its much nicer than a BW! These boats are seriously a work of art. Such beautiful things. I had just purchased an 8.5m twin and was so sad I had not seen this brand before buying.
Great things from Veitch.
Would love to get a hold of this in the states. Similar to the old 23 yellowfin but with the Aussie touches
This is the most impressive boat of that size I've ever seen!
Fished out of hull 1 (the prototype) and the updated hull, the updated hull ride is amazing dry and fast definitely great input by Nick at East Coast Angling gives this boat the competitive edge.
Bloody love the Captain and the Veitch boys
I'd love to see a half cab version of the 23, towable deep drop boat for south west aus conditions. Eventually 🤞

Fantastic looking boat. Looks like a great performer too. Nice One! 👍
What a beautiful boat!
Loving what Veitch are putting out. I think they must be the best looking boats going. Also great to see a company pushing to innovate and do something other than another 233 Formula clone. I would like to see how such an aggressive deadrise changes the handling of the boat.
The flooding keel is an interesting concept in a glass boat. I assume it's needed to have any semblance of stability at rest with such an aggressive deadrise...
I do wonder about the energy consumption of things like electric steering and sea keepers and the sustainability of such systems over the years. I guess time will tell.
Love the boat guys! I'd buy one if I could afford it.
another stella vid. Wanna see sea test 23 hardtop. Electronic flooded Keel interesting? Love the tech Veitech come up with! Just repowered twin Yam 200s this week to customers boat and very surprised with the punch they produced for little inline 4 bangers.... New yams are a gem!

Saw this thing beached up at Barrier Landing, the fit and finish is unlike anything I'd ever seen in a trailer boat.
Looks like a very very nice boat and the perfect size for an all rounder!! Love the c c and all the neat finishes! Looks really great. Oh and I love the modern raised bow!!
Just when i thought the 27 was sexy then along comes the 23 and WOW what a beautiful boat LOVE YOUR WORK VEITCH 👍🍻❤️
Finally! Been waiting ages haha. Now to order one🤷
Looks unreal, an Aussie Contender.. keep it up Captain(s)
This needs to be brought into the states for me to see in person. Unreal boat!! would love to see the specs of this if it's available somewhere. I can't seem to find it.
Wow great boat, need a shed to store it though
These boats are a wet dream.
I am in the market for a 23 hardtop at a certain price point and have been waiting for the hardtop. Any updates??
great front hatch for head and storage, having thought and placed handholds and storage is outstanding, finding what really works. but that poer costs so much to buy and consumption. others will prefer a single diesel boat with engine placed further forward with jack shaft. great fast boat for those wanting it. not cheap to run of course not for faint hearted or old pensioners retired fishing lol
That's one nice boat
Such a sweet boat. I struggle with the console, needs to be 6 inches llower with a half windscreen a canvas t top. Would look and be less heavy matched with seakeeper would be better than a contender 25.
Absolutely unreal!
Single mercury racing 450r would be sick on this
some good innovation there, looks better thought out than the 27! Very nice, how much?
When are we going to see the 27 in the same configuration with a 600 Merc?.
Very nice,,!!
How bout a 23 runabout format with bimini?
Pretty sure I saw this boat upside down on the side of the Bruce Highway near Bowen a few weeks back. Maybe not this one but it was a Veitch 23 CC.
Yes was on its way to Port Douglas a couple of months ago . We are getting the next one in Airlie Beach next month

Modern take on the 233, well done Veich boats. Still think the 733 and the signature 700L with the high side windows and sports arch are the best looking boats ever, both John Haines at his very best.
A 27 centre console next ?
I would love to know if the roof control is optional im personally not interested in it
Looks exactly like a yellowfin where Iam from
Price? of course?? ......... I love the edancraft or these or even the moda cat but its pure dreams for all but a few .......I think i read somewhere that the average boaty has a 4.8 m , 60 hp ....
Nicest glass boats in aus
What’s the purpose of the water ballast system?
Where is this filmed?
Akuna bay boat ramp. Broken Bay. Hawkesbury river. Pittwater.
How much?
Bout tree fiddy
More than you can afford pal
Half a house
$100,000 less then the other model making it more affordable to everyone else? Hahaha it’s still a $200,000 boat, the same people who could afford the more expensive one are the same people who can afford this boat
wuuuu :O
