Boating New Zealand - Innovision 616 Venture Hybrid

“Originally designed as a custom build for the Australian market, this casting deck layout is gaining popularity among soft bait and lure fishermen in New Zealand too. In managing to integrate two seemingly opposing design requirements –a full cabin and a casting deck – Simon Minoprio of Innovision has created a boat that ticks nearly every fishing box imaginable.

”Handling lived up to Innovision’s reputation – smooth and comfortable at speed, and extremely stable at rest. It is only when we reviewed the drone footage afterwards that the width of the boat became apparent, with the full beam carrying well forward into the casting deck. Despite this topside width, the waterline has a fine entry, which sliced cleanly through chop, delivering a dry and controlled ride.”
