Tristram 5.2m all fiberglass trailer boat with Johnson OceanRunner 90hp direct oil injecting motor. Superb little boat which I have had hours of fun with fishing with friends and family, very stable and cruses comfortably at 18- 20knots and makes short work of a run out into the gulf.
Has electric motor trim and trim tabs to plane nicely and trim out an uneven load of passengers. Fitted with Furuno 1850f GPS charter plotter with NZ CMaps and Dual frequency fish finder with AccuFish size identification so you can avoid the small ones. Brand new VHF Radio with triple watch feature and radio callsign included.
Electric capstan so you don’t have to manually haul the anchor and bait board with rod holders. Inboard fuel tanks and Voyager trailer with submersible lights which makes for easy launch and retrieval. Interior is all molded deck with molded panels with marine carpet inlays.
The only reason for sale is to step into a bigger Tristram otherwise I would continue to use this dependable boat. This boat has been well maintained and taken care of, being washed down and flushed after every use without fail.
Comes with: Fish finder, bait board, sea anchor, Danforth anchor chain and warp, inflatable lifejackets, cup holders, rod holders, ropes, table, road covers, first aid kit, fire extinguisher, Radio with callsign and Flare pack.

Are you in need of some tips for cutting down your grocery bill? Auckland blogger Stacey Sampson might be able to help.
After a financial emergency drained her and her husband of all their savings, they were left with just $60 in their bank account to feed their three kids.
Now every month she does a "cheap week" that helps cut costs and minimise food wastage. To read about Stacey and her food tips, click here.
"This month we've done it twice to save some extra for Christmas," she says.

Every Christmas, we somehow manage to spend more on gifts than we planned and buy more food than we could ever eat. Inevitably, this creates a lot of waste. Which is why this year, we’re focusing on turning Christmas waste into Christmas joy.

Inevitably, this creates a lot of waste. Which is why this year, we’re focusing on turning Christmas waste into Christmas joy. After all, there’s more than enough Christmas to go around.
Join us in our goal of giving every Aucklander a Merry Christmas and donate what you save.
