The 8 metre Pro Fisherman is a serious fishing machine. Standard with Five built in eskies, one of them being under floor at 600ltr, there is more than enough room for food, a large haul of fish and drinks. The console is of generous size to flush mount electronics and gauges and provides a huge storage compartment for all your safety equipment. There is forward seating on the console which in turn is also an esky.

The helm seat, one of those five eskies is couple with a swing over back rest so as the seating is utilized both ways. Forward bow rider style seating provides plenty of passengers seating and doubles as storage or eskies. The main attraction, the huge cockpit platform for that serious off shore fishing. There is plenty of room that would compare with the larger game boats. Add a Marlin Chair and it’s time to get serious on a trailerable game boat.

Deck wash, shower head, stainless steel targa top, bait board, padded combings, extreme heavy duty rod holders and much more are simply standard items on this super fishing boat. With a 600ltr-fuel capacity and an option to go larger, going seriously off shore is not a problem.
