WATER400L

powered by the reliable and

efficient Yanmar shaft-

drive diesels. With just 1350

hours on the clock, this will

suit as an offshore fishing

machine as well as a family

weekender that’s cheap

to run. She has plenty of

rod holders, rod storage,

outriggers, shotgun and

small game chair. Beautiful

teak cover boards and black

velour upholstery gives a

very classy finish.”

Running Yanmar 6FPA-

STP engines pushing 315hp

each, I’d expect a top speed

in the low 30kt range and

exceptional range from the

1450-litre fuel tank. With

400 litres of water, the crew

will be happy for many

days of extended cruising.

She has four berths and the

enclosed bulkhead adds

security. She’s recently been

anti-fouled and features a

shower in the enclosed head,

microwave, fridge, sink,

twin-burner gas stove, Muir

anchor winch, three bilge

pumps, full alloy-framed

bimini top with front and

side clears , helm carpet,

high bow rails, fender

baskets, removable saloon

carpet, battery charger, trim

tabs, GME stereo, 1800W

inverter, Ritchie compass,

VHF, Koden echo sounder,

Navman Tracker 5608GPS,

Navman autopilot, Reelax

outriggers, fish boxes, rod

holders, rod storage, live

bait in transom, rocket

launchers, bait prep area,

teak trim and rear door to

marlin board.

HOW MUCH?

I consider $230,000

reasonable for such a well-

fitted and well-presented

example of an iconic

gamefisher and cruiser,

especially with the premium

Yanmar shaft drives. I

wouldn’t expect a dramatic

change in the resale value

unless you put a million

hours on the engines and a

heap more tag and capture

flags on the outriggers. But

then you’ll have had your

money’s worth in fun!

ABOVE Up high and protected, perfect for those long runs out to the shelf, while the all-around visibility makes it equally useful for

manoeuvring in tight marina berths

ABOVE RIGHT, TOP-BOTTOM Plenty of space to relax below, whether for a nanna-nap after a big battle or at anchor in a quiet cove over

night; And a room with a view for brekky; Can you have too many rocket launchers? Probably not
