Cruise Craft Explorer 575 Review

Cruise Craft’s Explorer 575 has the same hull as the Outsider 575; the boat that took out this year’s closely contested Modern Boating’s Boat of the Year awards. But that’s where any similarities end.

Before we get to the nitty gritty of a boat test, let’s go back to the hull. There’s little point retesting a hull to which the Modern Boating’s boat team awarded our highest accolade, just the same, it’s worth going back over some of the ground again.

It was a chilly winter morning in the Brisbane bayside suburb of Manly when we ventured out onto southern Moreton Bay and headed for Peel Island to shoot pics for this test and a new Cruise Craft brochure.

Proceedings went well enough until it came time to return to the ramp. By then a winter wind was gusting up around 25 knots.

It was a sou westerly that cut across the flat country behind Cleveland and Wellington Point. This created a steep, almost metre high chop, which was pushing against the strong tidal flow. There was nowhere to hide from a succession of nasty little wind waves constantly slamming into the boat’s port shoulder.

It would have been a hard ride in any boat with the chop coming at that angle and missing the bow’s fine-entry. The hull was forced to take the swell right on the shoulder. And to make matters even worse, every now and then a wind wave passed under the transom in perfect time to hold the blunt end high, while the sharp end plummeted into the following trough.

There are plenty of expletives appropriate to describe the effect. Most of them have four letters bang, bump, bash etc, not that we could use any with our teeth rattling around in our heads.

I’m not going to insult anyone’s intelligence by waxing lyrical about the soft ride. But what I can tell you is that under the circumstances the ride delivered by this 5.7m boat was most impressive.

So what differentiates an Outsider Cruise Craft from the Explorer version’ In essence, the Outsider 575 has a walk-around deck, while the Explorer has a cabin and more cockpit space.

Cruise Craft tell me the Explorer’s cockpit is about 100mm longer, so there’s not a lot in it except the configurations.

An Explorer substitutes the portside step through transom found in an Outsider with a full height coaming that contains a bait well matching the one found to starboard in both boats.

Both the Outsider and the Explorer have good leg support around the cockpit periphery depending on whether the aft lounge has its lower cushion in place or not.

Because of the step through, an Outsider’s aft lounge doesn’t extend all the way across the transom, because it has to leave space for the step through. The lounge cushions on both boats fold down to keep them out of the way when not in use. This also gives the Explorer better ‘toes in under’ across the transom, so an angler can easily brace himself when fighting a fish.

Underneath the Outsider’s step through is a locker. This means the panel extends right down to the deck. The Explorer, once the lower lounge cushion has been lifted out of the way, has uninterrupted ‘toes in under’ right around the entire cockpit periphery.

The folding boarding ladder that’s standard on an Outsider goes on to the Explorer’s options list. This is an indication of how the Explorer is slanted slightly more towards a single-minded fishing bent. Still, a standard or deluxe bait board are options on either boat.

As is the beautifully finished stainless steel Targa shade top and overhead rocket launcher styled rod rack. This is an expensive item, but you’d have to be on a very tight budget to do without.

To me, the Explorer’s cabin felt roomier. This may have as much to do with an Explorer’s steering and dashboard bulkhead being cut away, to leave open space between the steering wheel and the bunk cushion, instead of the solid panel fitted in the Outsider.

My 170cm was ‘ albeit just comfortable stretched out on the bunks in the Explorer. You’d probably need infill cushions it’s another option ‘ to sleep in any degree of comfort. Taller folk may be somewhat cramped, but at least I could sleep. And, yes ladies, there’s still provision for a portable toilet in the Explorer’s cabin.

Some of the factors influencing judging during the Modern Boating Boat of the Year Awards was the way the Outsider blended family amenities with serious fishing and the way both were served without compromising each other.

In some ways the Explorer, being the newer boat, is a development on the Outsider. Improvements include a new moulded liner between the bunks, which incorporates a step to make it more comfortable for someone standing out through the cabin top hatch handling anchor and ropes. Storage pockets, set into the side panel beside the passenger and helm seats, have also gained moulded liners. It’s a nice finishing touch.

One thing I found is unchanged about the Explorer was the way my face was in close proximity to the windscreen frame while standing at the helm.

People taller or shorter than I will wonder what the hell I am on about here and no, I didn’t manage to blacken any eyes, or anything else for that matter, on our bumpy ride home that day.

Nonetheless, were I to own an Outsider or an Explorer (and yup, I’d love to own one) I’d have to rework the slide on the helm seat, to extend rearward travel.

Apart from this issue, running the boat home across Moreton Bay was quite comfortable whether seated or standing, regardless of the sou’ westerly. The standard wrap-around bucket seats keep you in place behind the wheel and the footrest against the back end of the bunk is well positioned.

A matching pair of Lowrance’s latest generation GPS and sounder were options fitted to the test boat. These were integrated neatly into the dash and positioned in the skipper’s line of sight.

Actually, the test Explorer was set up pretty much as the average offshore fisho would probably like.

The interior had been kept Spartan, while many Outsiders have optioned luxuries such as a lining inside the cabin and side pockets. These add considerably to creature comforts people intent on fishing would happily do without, even if they did slip inside budget parameters.

One ‘comfort’ fitted to a lot of the Outsiders I’ve seen, which would be well worth the investment in an Explorer, were padded bolsters along the cockpit sides. The topsides of both models are well finished with recessed grab bars and stern cleats so they won’t snag fishing lines.

Any choice between the Explorer 575 and its award winning sister the Outsider 575 isn’t going to be an easy, or a simple one for most people in a position of having to make it. The best thing about having to make this decision though, is that with a choice between excellent and excellent, you can’t go wrong either way.

So how much is it going to cost to park a new Explorer on your front lawn’ The Cruise Craft Explorer 575 as tested retails around $49,520, which represents good value for money.

Engine Room With a 130hp Saltwater Series V4 Yamaha on its transom, the Explorer 575 proved itself a well-balanced package. With two people and a stack of fishing gear aboard, we recorded a top speed of 37 knots at 5700rpm. So an Explorer running the maximum of 150hp would really fly and would probably be a bit of overkill.

One of the things the team likes most about these latest generation Cruise Crafts is the way they handle at low speeds. With a standard Yamaha 17′ pitch prop, the 575 was trying to plane at 9 knots and well and truly ‘up’ at 10 knots. In the mid range, at cruising revs of 3500rpm, we recorded 18.5 knots; at 4000rpm, 23.0; and at 4500rpm, 27.6 knots.

Cruise Craft Outsider 575 Review

CRUISE CRAFT OUTSIDER 575

It is a timeless conundrum: "What do I want in a boat and what will I be really using it for?" Is it just for my use, or will there be family and mates involved? (There'll always be mates involved!) Will it be used just for fishing or leisure? Will watersports be a prime concern, or will it be a combination of all of the above? If you're anything like me, you'd be wanting a craft that can handle a bit of everything. A boat that can handle a few of the boys for a day's fishing, be used heaps during the summer for towing the kids on inflatable water toy,s as well as lounging around doing jack. Cruise Craft answers the call with a variety of craft. They are moderately priced, have years of heritage as a family company since 1946, and constructing fibreglass craft since 1967. If safety is a prime concern with the "tin lids" Cruise Craft feature foam-filled hulls for added floatation, plus they're dinki-di Aussie from bimini top to keel. The Cruise Craft 575 Outsider will go a long way to answering that difficult question - especially for a family. Trailer Boat sourced a new 575 from Coastlife Marine at Wyong just north of Sydney, and we hooked up and headed to the Gosford boat ramp to sample the 2006 model on Brisbane Water as it flows into the lower reaches of the Hawkesbury River. The 575 is the smallest of the three Outsider walkaround models, but it's certainly not short of the pedigree that's made Cruise Craft range such a well-respected name in Australian marine circles. It possesses everything to make it a strong option for the family who wants a craft for a variety of uses. Unless you clamber aboard via the trailer, boarding is via an access door port rear onto the spacious deck. This also makes an ideal swim platform as the two step stainless steel ladder is recessed into the back deck. Underneath the transom bulkhead the battery, bilge pump, deck wash pump and oil tank are hidden, and they're - all easily accessible. Included in the bulkhead is a generous live bait tank than can be optioned up with plumbing and sitting proud was the deluxe bait board with raw-water deck wash hose attached. Of cantilever design, a rear seat is folded away in the transom. It doesn't intrude when not in use and swings out with two sturdy hooks attaching to points at the front of the transom. Optional padded combings along the gunwales offer more support as they are just the right size for getting purchase against your thighs when leaning over the side. Another feature that aids in surefootedness and peace of mind is that there is room under the gunwale storage racks to slide your feet for added balance. In the cockpit there are two seats on aluminium pedestals, and both swivel although only the captain's rest can be moved forward and aft. Beside both seats are two storage compartments - one for keys and phone with larger space at the bottom next to the gunwale storage for bulkier items. Instruments consist of large Bombardier tacho as well as trim and fuel gauges with a slanted space in front where a flush-mounted fishfinder and GPS combo can be fitted, directly in front of the helmsman. There's waterproof switches including bilge pump and optional bait tank plumbing and 27 Meg radio. A handy feature in the cabin is a removable shroud that covers the wiring for the instruments and steering. What it loses in headroom makes up for ease of access, tidiness and for waterproofing purposes. There is plenty of space on the v-bed and an overnight expedition is certainly not out of the question. There's a generous hatch that big Shane proved is built for all sizes. The hatch is moulded to form a seat that comes in handing for throwing a line off the bow while your mates use the deck behind. Also the prow is a moulded part of the hull as well adding for strength with a generous stainless steel bow rail as standard that doubles as a handrail for the walkaround that is easy to negotiate. One thing that is missing is the lack of drink holders around the craft. Sure in this day and age of responsible boating, manufacturer's may wish to paint a positive picture but just because it fits a can or a bottle doesn't necessarily mean it has to contain alcohol! With its foam filled hull it loses out a bit on storage space compared to other hollow hulled vessels. While that provides peace of mind in flotation fixes it limits the amount of gear like skis and wakeboards that you may store out of toe tapping way unless everything is placed on the V-bed up front as so often happens. Under the fully carpeted floor is a reasonable kill tank or icebox but most of the underfloor space is taken up by the centrally located 160litre fuel tank that is accessed by a screw panel. There is also a deep storage well in the centre of the V bed but along the side there are smaller spaces for little nick knacks as unseen available space is again taken up with the foam core Sitting in the comfortable upholstered seats there is plenty of protection from the elements while under power with the four piece wraparound screen also giving good vision when giving the legs a rest. This craft had an optional bimini with Max adding they are designing a set of wraparound clears that will be available shortly. For extra support there is a moulded foot rest for captain and passenger while behind the seat are two stainless grab rails that are handy for others to stand while underway but if sitting down is the option there is the folding bench seat that hooks to the front of the transom. There are four rod holders around the gunwales while there were a few more on the bait board. A rocket launcher is an option. At 5.712 metres it's a craft that is easy trailerable but light enough at around 1700kg not to need a Mack truck to tow. It can be put in the water one-out plus it is offers decent handling qualities that like it's name suggests will let you go outside even with a swell running.. The added safety is in what you can't see with the foam filled hull that adds to the confidence of owning a sure footed craft constructed to handle rough stuff. Fitted with a 150hp Johnson two stroke it would be interesting to see how it would handle four blokes of varying size from straw-weight me to man mountain, Shane, our craft master from Coastlife along with our snapper Bazz and Max Wicks who had organised the test. With over 300kgs of weight just in passengers, the Outsider didn't even wheeze hesitate or burp when the question was asked to get on the plane. It did it effortlessly being remarkably responsive, Max explaining that the strake and chine design enables the ease of physics transfer to get us motoring On full noise 100kmh is attainable with the Johnson spinning over around 5000 rpm. For pleasant motoring and better fuel economy it ticks over at 3000RPM at around 60km/h. The crew were keen to demonstrate the boats handling and it wasn't long before Shane had us pirouetting in the briny and no mater how hard he threw it into a turn it tracked well and held its line with very little tendency to cavitate. Sure it did do it a couple of times but Shane was really pushing it. The surprise was the lack of spray in the turn as it isn't noticeable until the rear third of the craft with none coming over the gunwales - even in very hard turns. It was the same when hitting a swell or wake with no one in the boat copping a drop. The ride through swell, chop or wake is up there with the best. Very smooth and no need to really brace your body as the hull absorbs the impact sensationally well.  We even got a fish in while we were out. With three adults there is no trouble moving about the deck, casting and baiting up. Also the moulded seat in the forward hatch is a real bonus for a relaxing fish. I even managed to jag a Sergeant Baker on a squidgy!  We were fishing in the adjacent to the narrow channel that runs out to Pittwater and this is used by a variety of craft, one of which was a huge passenger catamaran. The wakes that swept passed us amply demonstrated the crafts stability at rest. With its 40cm draft and 2.37m beam we weren't a wine cork bobbing about and  it was back to steady afloat in no time. If you want a more fishing orientated craft the similarly priced sister 575 Explorer may be what temps but as for the Outsider it is a definite top of list option for a family all-rounder that will serve you many happy times. Indeed this craft isn't just a cruise as the name suggests as it can head outside to fish, drag the rellies and kids behind at pace or just relax on a calm bay.

Different epochs

Taking a walk along the Moskva River by boat, you will witness the architecture of Moscow from different eras and styles. Archaeological studies indicate that already in the XI century there stood a fortified settlement on Borovitsky hill, which is now called the Kremlin. Little fortress could not accommodate all the residents of the rapidly growing city, and the Grand Duke ordered the construction of a new Kremlin, larger than the former.

Boat trip around Kolomenskoe Park

Moscow river boat trip starts from the pier Klenovy (Maple) Boulevard and provides reat views of Nicholas Perervinsky monastery.

Nicholas Perervinsky monastery was founded at the time of the Battle of Kulikov (1380). The monastery, got its name from the surrounding area – “Pererva”, which can be translated like “tear off” and because of the location –  here it abruptly changed its course, turning to Kolomna, standing on the opposite bank.

Nowadays Kolomenskoye is State Art, Historical, Architectural and Natural Landscape Museum-Reserve, which doors are open to everyone who wants to get in touch with the ancient history of Russia.

Take a break from the big city hustle in the shady parks and gardens of the Kolomenskoe Museum-Reserve. Don’t miss a wonderful Church of the Ascension and Tsar Alexey’s Palace in Kolomenskoye!
