The first batch of Saxdor 200 Sports have arrived in New Zealand and are available through Sports Marine in Auckland and Christchurch.
Saxdor 200 Sport is a 6m runabout that is very different to what Kiwis are used to. Sharp bow, low profile and a bold statement. However, if look beyond the unconventional style, you will find a multi-purpose boat, that’s lively and cool to drive. It’s ideal for water enthusiasts looking for a fun and fast vehicle that isn’t a jet ski.
Saxdor 200 Sport a new generation boat and a style that is slowing gaining acceptance in New Zealand. No local manufacturers have taken the bold step in producing a boat of this style to their line up, and they are unlikely to.
The Saxdor 200 has been described as sturdy, angular Finnish construction from Polish production with flexible equipment options based on a modular concept and very sporty driving characteristics.Â
One of the nine model range, the Saxdor 200 Pro Sport is the first model to be landed in New Zealand.Â
“We are excited to introduce this new brand to the Kiwi market and see great potential throughout the range”, says Sports Marines. Scott Williamson.
He adds, “Saxdor is very different from other brands we represent in New Zealand and takes us into a new boating market”.Â
While the 200 Sport is the smallest in the range, it comes packed full of features not often found in a boat of this size.
The Saxdor 200 Sport is a 5.94m outboard-powered personal watercraft that proves affordable boating doesn’t mean compromising quality, seakeeping, versatility performance or sexy styling.
The entry-level boat with a 100hp engine is capable of 34 knots, while the largest 175hp outboard motor will achieve a top speed of over 45 knots. Â
The standard boat comes with a triple jockey seat and an open deck, but customers can customise the design to their requirements. Options include a T-top, twin 7in or 9in multi-function displays on the helm console, an uprated stereo system with T-top mounted speakers and a canvas that attaches to the opening bow hatch for the ability to use the boat overnight. An alternative seating arrangement includes side-by-side jockey seats with a twin bench aft.Â
