Bar Crusher 560 Apache

CELEBRATING 10 years of success, Bar Crusher has released a  limited edition version of its most popular model, the 560C.

With just 50 to be built, Bar Crusher’s 560C Apache is built on the  same hull that is considered by knowledgeable boaters as the perfect  all-round boat for Australian conditions. Measuring 6.10m LOA with a  2.25m beam, the boat is constructed from high-tensile 4mm (bottom sides)  and 3mm (top sides) commercial marine grade plate aluminium.

Bar Crusher’s high-tech Waveslicer non-pounding, deep-V hull delivers  an ultra-smooth ride, the expertly-engineered Rigideck sub-floor system  ensures maximum hull strength, while the company’s exclusive Quickflow  water ballast technology ensures the boat is extremely stable at rest.

But that’s where the similarities with the standard 560C end. The  560C Apache features a distinctive colour scheme – black sides and US  Aircraft Grey top decks, cabin and interior – deluxe seats are fitted as  standard, and the cabin, roof and rear cockpit have all been lined to  make the boat stealthily quiet.

Inline with the 560C Apache’s combative appearance, the custom-built,  fully-galvanised Easytow trailer is painted black (to match the hull)  and features low-profile mag wheels, along with an upgraded winch and  jockey wheel.

Rated to carry a 115-150hp outboard, the 560C Apache’s superior  performance capabilities, 150L fuel capacity and spacious cabin  configuration make it ideal for offshore fishing expeditions with mates  or estuary adventures with the family.

As a hardcore boat for hardcore anglers, rod holders, livebait tank,  in-floor fish storage tank, berley bucket, large-volume storage pockets  and an easy-to-clean checkerplate deck are among a long list of standard  fishing-related features.

As with all models in Bar Crusher’s cuddy cabin range, the folding  gas-strut roof (with side clears) provides much needed protection from  the elements while on the water, yet when folded it reduces the  on-trailer height by a metre for storage under carports and in  garages.
