Built in Tauranga New Zealand, Herley Boats’ Elite range has been designed from the hull up as a comfortable luxury fishing and family vessel for the discerning buyer. They offer quality over quantity and full customisation to suit your needs. The range includes the Elite 8 which has the convenience of having it on a trailer, as well as the Elite 9 which is the large scale version for those longer trips where more space is needed.
They have retained Herley’s proven hull shape which draws from traditional plumb bow theory, creating a long waterline length and fine entry with a relatively flat aft area, she is both stable at rest and underway.
The Herley Elite boasts quality and comfort with a high performing ride, including large living spaces and multiple sleeping areas – creating an ultimate family oriented fishing boat.
he Elite range offers class leading strength and weight distribution, including a forward collision bulkhead and sealed self-draining cockpit. The Elite 8 & 9 offer an extremely capable long range fishing platform with fuel tanks options, offering ranges of over 700km.
As well single and twin petrol outboard options for higher 40+ knot speeds and joystick controlled precision vessel movement.
The Elite is built with weight in mind to keep her towable, weighing in at 4.2 tonnes on the trailer and 3.4 tonnes on the water. Â The first of the new Elite Series is scheduled for display at the Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show in May.
