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.
Boats that carry a CPC plate are certified to adhere to specific safety and construction standards tailored for marine environments.
Each year, an accredited and independent marine surveyor conducts audits to verify that manufacturers continue to comply with the CPC standards.
CPC accredited boats must provide a minimum two-year structural hull warranty. Tristram Marine extends this warranty up to five years.
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.
The programme is endorsed by Coastguard New Zealand and the NZ Marine Industry Association, adding an extra layer of credibility and assurance.
