We hire out three boats, two based in Christchurch with a possible other boat to come later this year, possibly based at Lake Hood.

The boats are:

In the Sounds we have a 16 ft 7 inch Plylite Bluewater, powered by a 90 Hp 2001
Yamaha two stroke and this is backed up with a 2001 mercury 8 Hp two stroke.

The Plylite has two VHF radios, A colour Chart plotter, a colour Depth sounder and
Fish finder, and has three 25 litre tote tanks for the main motor and one 8 litre tank
 for the back up motor. The tanks are interchangable between motors.

It has twin batteries with isolating switches so it helps protects against flat batteries.
The boat has twin Bilge pumps, operating independently of each other, one auto and
one manually switched.

Anchor winch for easy setting and anchor hauling up.

Seating and load rating for the Plylite is four adults. Life jackets for both boats are supplied according to intended sizes requested.

This boat is ideal for exploring or water skiing, and is suitable for fishing for to to
three adults. Note : This Boat can also be hired from Christchurch at certain
