Twin Outboard 821 Offshore ‘No. 1’ has been handed over to it’s owners who have recently progressed up from a Tristram 741 Offshore. The owners of ‘No. 1’ have selected the option of Mercury’s Joystick Piloting (JPO) which offers 360 degree control to move sideways, diagonally or to spin on the boat’s own axis. Skyhook digital anchoring is also featured which uses GPS technology to maintain the boat’s position and heading for fishing.
‘Ohana (Hawaian for ‘Family’) is heading south today from Tristram HQ en route to the sunny Hawkes Bay. This 691 Millennium M2 was powered by Yamaha’s 200hp V6 powerplant and looked brilliant – sporting a gunmetal grey hull wrap and grey over black SeaDek flooring.
‘Fermata’ was recently handed over at Tristram HQ – bound for Orams Drystack in Auckland. This mid-sized crossover boat is named after the musical notation meaning ‘to pause or rest’. Very appropriate, apart from the fact that this V8 engine will be doing anything BUT resting at full speed!
