Broker's Comments

The Explorer 165 Elite is a direct competitor to the Warrior 165, some would argue, a better boat altogether.

Hand build to Lloyds approved standards using only the best quality materials and shaped to provide the perfect combination of smooth ride and stability at anchor or while drift fishing. The hull shape also provides extremely responsive handling at both high and low speeds.

The forward cuddy provides ample space with lots of dry stowage. The high freeboard and 40 square feet of deck give crew an excellent fishing platform. Boarding is easy and safe due to the relatively shallow draft.

This model is powered by a 60hp Mariner EFI (2012). The engine comes with service history and presents in good condition. There is also a 'like new' auxiliary 3.2 mariner with less than 1 hour's use included.

A smart fast fisher package with clean and well presented trailer.
