Cruise Craft Explorer
Another HardTop added to the rangeThe range of hardcore Cruise Craft fishing boats has been expanded with the release of the Explorer 625HT. This is now the second HardTop in the Cruise Craft range, with the bigger Explorer 685 HT proving to be a highly popular model that is bound to pave the way.
Now, serious bluewater fishermen can head offshore under stormy skies, or blistering summer sunshine, well protected by the HardTop cover on their Explorer 625HT. This is a purpose-designed and manufactured fibreglass moulding specifically tailored to the 625.
The HardTop is a two-piece moulding with a smooth gelcoat interior liner that makes it easy to clean and maintain. The two components are bonded together to form a very stylish HardTop shell.
Supporting the aft end of the structure is a pair of robust yet stylish stainless steel posts. These also double as very secure hand holds for the crew while travelling at sea.
In its most basic offering, the HardTop is formed with a full-height, toughened-glass windscreen at the front, flanked by sliding glass side panels. An electric wiper ahead of the helm is a standard inclusion.
The sliding glass side screens are very generous in size and allow a heap of fresh air to flow through the cockpit, says Cruise Craft.
Another key attribute of the Explorer 625HT is cockpit space. There is more than ample room for three anglers to stand across the rear of the seats.
Such are the proportions of the HardTop that those standing behind the seats are well protected. When additional shade is required, an optional slide out canopy can be installed.
According to Peter Benston, National Sales and Marketing Manager at Cruise Craft, the extension of the HardTop to the Explorer 625 model is a natural progression.
“After introducing the HardTop feature to the Explorer 685, we were massively impressed with our customer’s reaction and the orders that flowed in for HT model,” Benston said.
“The demand for the HardTop configuration was well in excess of what we expected. Our HardTop is a highly valued feature amongst Cruise Craft customers. It comes with a relatively small additional cost over the Std SST Folding Targa/Bimini set up," he said.
Full details concerning the cost and availability are readily available from authorised CruiseCraft dealers Australia wide. See www.cruisecraft.com.au. Watch this space for our upcoming test.
