1987 MARINER 2800 (1987)

The 1987 Mariner 2800 is a proven 10.5-metre GRP flybridge sportsfisher offering serious offshore capability at outstanding value. Powered by twin Mercruiser 5-cylinder diesel stern drives with approximately 980 hours, this twin-screw package delivers confidence on the water with the added security of a bow thruster for close-quarters manoeuvring. The flybridge is well equipped with a fibreglass hardtop, Simrad display, helm station, anchor remote, aft couch, intercom and stereo speakers - ideal for watching the spread on a big offshore day. The cockpit is rigged for action with game poles, live bait tank, bait station, cockpit shower and swim ladder. Below decks, the saloon dinette converts to a double berth, with a separate forward cabin providing genuine two-berth overnight accommodation. The galley features a 2-burner gas hob, oven and fridge, while a lockup shower and toilet add comfort on longer passages. The lower helm station includes a Simrad display, VHF, Fusion stereo, and both bow thruster and anchor remotes. Shore power, solar panel and charger complete the package. At $63,000, this is rare value in a flybridge fishing platform. Tauranga, Bay of Plenty.
