NEW WHITTLEYS ARRIVE

Whittley Boats has released three new models: the SL20 and SL25 HT sterndrive packages in the Sea Legend range, and the CW1950 in Whittley’s Clearwater range.

The 6.37m SL20 has a 23o deep-vee hull with an excellent offshore ride. It has a new-look cabin entry and claims to have most comfortable seats in the 6m class.

Well kitted out for fishing, the standard package also includes front and side clears, alloy rocket launchers, a vinyl cabin divider, Garmin 4.5-inch GPS/FF and Bennett SLT trim tabs.

Whittley has packaged the SL20 with a Mackay dual-axle, electric braked trailer and Volvo Penta’s V6 200 G SX engine.

The SL25 HT, an evolution of Whittley’s SL24, also features a 23o deadrise hull below decks, but it’s above the water where the changes are more obvious. The SL25 HT features an all-new lockable cabin door and stylish hardtop. The rear has a moulded fishing platform, while inside the cockpit there’s a removable 150-litre kill tank. A 30-litre plumbed live bait tank is moulded into the transom.

The SL25 can be specc’d in petrol or diesel configurations with optional duoprop legs. Both new models offer the new Whittley Pulse System and can house up to a 16-inch Garmin multi-function or Volvo Penta Glass Cockpit display.

The new Clearwater (CW) 1950 is a purpose-built sports fishing boat that doesn’t skimp on family comforts or break the budget. It’s light enough to be towed by a large family sedan or smaller SUV and built to tackle rough conditions.

The CW1950 features an innovative walk-through rear transom door, moulded fishing/boarding platforms and generous beam for stability. It features one of the largest fishing cockpits in its class thanks to the unique folding outboard door in the engine well and there’s plenty of room to store your catch.
