![]() Eagle 4.6 Trimaran This head-turning powerboat is designed for fishing, or day trips in coastal waters. The trimaran hull form has many advantages over a conventional monohull.The outrigger hulls make this boat virtually impossible to capsize, and allow the use of a very slender main hull, which slices through waves effortlessly. Because the hull is so slender, it does not need to plane to achieve high speeds, meaning only a small motor is required. An 8hp outboard will push the Eagle at up to 13 knots. The boat is suitable for up to 15hp. The eagle can carry up to 3 adults, plus gear. There is a total of 10 watertight compartments making this boat virtually unsinkable, and very safe. The telescopic crossbeams allow the beam to be reduced to 2.4m for trailering. Construction is from stitch and glue plywood, making the boat, simple, affordable, light, and rugged. This boat can be lifted by 2 people when the motor is removed. Phone: 021 2389039 82A Wirihana Road, Titirangi.
