Marketing

The versatile format makes it a pure joy for fishing or funning about. It’s kitted out with loads of space around the deck, storage holds everywhere, and a roomy, compact cabin you can retreat to for shelter or a nap.

A forward hatch above the twin berth allows easy access to the anchor well. In the cockpit with the seat adjusted, the helm falls perfectly
to hand while the instrumentation is set into an optional woodgrain finished dashboard, laid out for quick scanning.

The first grade finish is evident throughout the 500C with finest quality stainless steel fittings, tough acrylic windscreen and plush, sun-and-water resistant upholstery.

Let the motor surge into action (using anything up to a 90hp 4-stroke outboard)and feel the Signature Variable Deadrise Hull™ come into its own, slipping sensuously across the water, the passengers feeling safe and dry and you happy in the knowledge that you’re not chewing up buckets of expensive fuel.

Let loose in your 500C, the waterways of Australia become your fun park. Load up the picnic, the family or friends, water sports gear, a couple of fishing lines and head out for the day to your favourite playground. This is what boating’s all about. The 500C is affordable fun and tows comfortably behind most family sedans or 4WDs.
