CPC (Compliance Plate Certification) programme

The CPC (Compliance Plate Certification) programme in New Zealand ensures that trailer boats meet rigorous safety and construction standards.

Tristram Marine is one of the only fibreglass trailer boat manufacturers in the world to have every model accredited in the CPC programme.

Certification

Boats that carry a CPC plate are certified to adhere to specific safety and construction standards tailored for marine environments.

Annual Audits

Each year, an accredited and independent marine surveyor conducts audits to verify that manufacturers continue to comply with the CPC standards.

Structural Integrity

CPC accredited boats must provide a minimum two-year structural hull warranty. Tristram Marine extends this warranty up to five years.

Performance Testing

New boat models undergo water testing over a 1km course to certify their performance and safety. This ensures that the boats can handle real-world conditions effectively.

Endorsements

The programme is endorsed by Coastguard New Zealand and the NZ Marine Industry Association, adding an extra layer of credibility and assurance.
