Nelson Fishing Charter Boat & Equipment

Our vessel 'Strike Adventure' is a 4.1 metre Frewza manufactured in Southland 2011. It is an aluminium pontoon boat with five air chambers and any amount of reserve buoyancy to make it near unsinkable. With cut down sides at the rear, it is easy to get aboard and to get off. Our boat is very stable and extremely seaworthy. Best of all, it is easily portable by trailer and  ideal for beach launching and getting to those great fishing spots that offer difficult access or long commutes for larger boats. Being a smaller craft, it makes less noise at anchor, casts a smaller shadow, is more economical to run, and a more versatile and deadly fish-catching-machine. We cater for small groups of 1-3 anglers plus guide and offer a personalised service at a value price.
