hsuCregnarOreviewSmuggler Strata 900Centre Console RIBWORDS BY NORMAN HOLTZHAUSENPHOTOGRAPHY BY SUELLEN DAVIES52Boating New Zealand

Smuggler Marine’s latest modelpresents the usucraftsmanship anald while the slightlyunusual colour scchosen by the cuhemestomer’s wife maynotbeuniversallyappealing, it’s undeniably striking.he heavy-duty Hypalon tubes in two-tone grey, thewhite centre console, the gleaming pair of silver/black250hp Evinrude E-TEC outboards, the teak-colouredDeck King flooring and the Tek Dek boarding platformare all pretty standard.But it’s the orange supports for the grey and blackhardtop, with matching orange rod holders and even an orange trim stripon the Evinrudes, that grabs the eye. And rather than the usual stainlessbrightwork, the owner’s elected to have it all powder-coated in bright orange.Which makes this a very distinctive boat that certainly stands out from thecrowd. Not that Dave Pringle, owner of Smuggler Marine, needed to do muchto make her conspicuous. At 9m LOA and a beam of 3.3m, she’s a big boatthat will turn heads in any colour. And those twin outboards deliver enoughspeed to leave most competitors far behind.Although centre consoles are often considered ‘day boats’ with little in theway of shelter or overnighting capability, the Strata 900 has enough space toovercome some of those limitations. The centre console unit is big enough tocontain two berths, with the removable squabs providing access to the electrictoilet and storage space underneath.A freshwater tank supplies a handheld shower as well as a plumbed sink unitunder the helm seat. That same unit also has a two-burner gas hob, giving theboat an overnighting capability for two on warm summer weekend trips.T subscribe magstore.nz/boatingnewzealandBoating New Zealand53

Centre consoles are all about space, and the Strata900 has it in abundance. The forward lounge areahas seating for at least half a dozen people, and anunder-floor locker holds plenty of gear as well. Alldeck hatches are water tight, so gear stored there willremain dry regardless of the conditions. The DeckKing flooring which runs throughout the cabin floor iscomfortable on bare feet and provides a secure footingeven when wet.One of the issues RIB manufacturers face is how toeffectively mount an automatic anchor winch withoutimpacting the tubes. Smuggler’s solved this conundrumwith a remote through-bow anchor mounting. Thiskeeps the anchor well away from the soft tubeswhile offering the total convenience of an automaticanchor winch. Inside the bow area the anchor locker isaccessible under the forward squabs.U-DEKBY ULTRALONMARINE DECKINGSMART, CUSTOM SOLUTIONS FORPROTECTING YOUR BOATS DECK Hard wearing, easy to maintain alternativefor traction in wet areas.Specifically for marine applicationsReduces noise and absorbs shockDurable, UV resistant, non-absorbingEasy to clean, stain resistantFull templating and installation serviceavailable or DIY installation is easyMultiple colour and routering optionsFULLY CUSTOMISED DECK KITSAt 9m LOA and abeam of 3.3m, sha big boat that w e’sturns heads in anillycolour.The boat is, of course, dominated by thelarge centre console, with a curved carbon-fibre styledashboard.
