We’ve just returned from an exciting handover in Western Australia, delivering a stunning Haines Hunter SP725 to an amazing couple in Perth, what an adventure it turned out to be!
From the moment Kieran and Emily first contacted us, it was clear this wasn’t just a boat purchase; it was the beginning of a dream. We worked closely with Kieran to ensure the SP725 met Australian compliance r on the hull and trailer, and we’re proud to say the shipping process went smoothly. The boat arrived in pristine condition, ready to hit the water.
We flew over to Perth to complete the handover in person, and spent two unforgettable days on the water with Kieran and Emily, launching from the Two Rocks boat ramp and exploring some of his favourite fishing spots.
The SP725, powered by a Yamaha 300hp and equipped with Simrad radar, chart overlays, and autopilot through the Yamaha Helm Master system, proved to be the perfect match for WA’s coastal waters. Even in rougher conditions, the legendary Haines Hunter ride shone through, stable, soft, and supremely comfortable.
Onlookers at the ramp were quick to notice the sleek NZ Haines Hunter, with more than a few stopping to ask questions about “the boat they hadn’t seen before.
Of course, no fishing trip would be complete without a few memorable catches. The team pulled in a fantastic WA Jewfish and the unmistakable baldchin groper, adding another layer of satisfaction to the experience.
We left Western Australia inspired — by the warm people, the incredible boating conditions, and the opportunity to showcase what makes Haines Hunter such a trusted name on the water. This is just the beginning of our journey into the Australian boating community.
