Research record, not a complete review

This variant remains in the database so buyers can identify the range, but its current public evidence is too limited for a search-indexed review. Use the Polycraft range range guide and confirm the missing figures with the supplier.

One of 580 dinghies, tenders and RIBs in the BuyDinghy Australian database, scored against aluminium & polyethylene dinghies rather than the market as a whole.

Where this model fits

At 4.80 m, this model sits at the standalone-boat end of the aluminium & polyethylene dinghies. That helps define the comparison set, but storage, total package weight and local support still decide whether it belongs on a shortlist.

Maximum power is not recorded in our source data, so it should be confirmed before choosing an outboard or valuing a package. Passenger capacity is not recorded here; ask for the current capacity plate or manufacturer documentation rather than relying on an advertisement.

Before you request a quote

  • Ask the seller to identify the exact 480 Brumby model year and included configuration in writing.
  • Obtain a written hull weight and clarify whether the floor, console, battery or other removable equipment is included.
  • Request the complete delivered price, including unavoidable freight, preparation and registration costs.
  • Confirm warranty and parts support for this exact model under Polycraft's current Australian arrangement.

Fit scores

Each score is Polycraft's editorial score for that job, scaled by how well a 4.80 m hull suits it. A superb manufacturer still makes boats that are wrong for your job — the curve is what says so. How this is calculated.
