As the perfect weekender, Why Not is kitted with a hot water system, solar panels, upgraded Fusion Signature Series speakers, an electric drawer fridge, fully enclosed canvas hardtop extension with clears and backdrop, V-berth cabin infill, upgraded helm and passenger seating, and a Southern Pacific RIB dinghy for beach landings. Fishing at Great Barrier Island, anchoring for lunch in Onetangi, overnighting in the shelter of the Tāwharanui Peninsula – the possibilities for good times are endless for Why Not’s lucky excited owners.

TRISTRAM TECH TIP / Outboard Flushing

Keep your outboard in top shape by flushing with fresh water for 15 minutes after each saltwater use.

TRISTRAM TECH TIP / Post-Winter Checks

Good fuel condition is vital for the smooth running of your engine. With summer right around the corner it is a good idea to top up your tank with fresh high-octane fuel to boost the overall level in your tank. We also recommend inspecting your fuel filter for signs of debris or water. Water in your fuel system can cause serious engine damage if it’s not dealt with. If you notice water in your fuel filter bowl, or if you have concerns about your engine after a long period of winter storage, contact the Tristram Service Centre today.
