CLIPPER Motoryacht’s new-style Hudson Bay 50 sedan cruiser has been launched and is undergoing final fitout and sea trials.
Clipper Motoryachts Australia MD Brett Thurley said: "The new boat is scheduled to leave the factory in late October. We anticipate an official launch in Australia in mid-November."
Thurley said the Clipper factory team had worked closely with him to build the first boat in the new Clipper range to the highest standards.
"This is a highly specced boat," he said. "We have included refinements such as a pantograph skipper's door on the starboard side for walk-around deck access when docking and anchoring.
"The team has also gone to great lengths to refine the look of the helm with an innovative hand-stitched leather pod to house the electronics featuring the latest Simrad touch-screen technology for GPS, Radar and Autopilot.
"The new Hudson Bay combines the classic lines for which Clippers are renowned, with a flourish of the contemporary lifestyle aspects of a sedan cruiser," he said.
LOWRANCE last week launched its Elite 4 and Mark 4 sounder and sounder/GPS combo units in a media event held at Narabeen Lake north of Sydney.
