Everything from bait stations to cockpit details has had extra thought and effort put into making it a superbly crafted product. There’s nothing rough, flimsy, or impractical on board at all. The first equal impression, is that the build quality on these boats is absolutely top notch. The first impression on board the Innovision boats is that they are at least a metre bigger than the model number on the side suggests. The cabin space on even the smaller models really has to be seen to be appreciated, and easily accommodates bunks or high volume storage. Their distinctive look, which most people seem to either love or hate, immediately peaks some sort of response.Ī plumb (vertical) bow, that is immediately flared wide and a cabin roof set extra high, immediately puts a lot of cat swinging room up front where other conventional sloped hulls have none. With a plethora of alloy rigs on the market, some great, some not so great, it’s often hard to tell a new story or find a significant point of difference. One brand that I know will be worth the wait, after having been on several models in varying sea conditions, is Innovision. NZ boat factories are often at capacity, and with a shortage of skilled fabricators and other limitations, waiting for your baby boat to finally pop out of the factory must seem like a long time for those lucky enough to be on the receiving end. The boat market is booming at the moment, and customers placing their orders are no strangers to having to now wait up to six months or more for the right boat to be built, and sometimes even longer depending on the availability of anything from windscreens to outboards that have been held up due to the old C19. ![]() ![]() No longer considered ‘new’ to the market, Innovision have been producing what I would class as boutique custom boats for several years. Nowadays it’s often to create boat video content, which is how I first ran into Simon Minoprio, the founder of alloy boat company Innovision Boats. Here at NZ Fishing World, I am lucky, and sometimes unlucky enough, to spend a good amount of time at sea on many different boat brands. ![]()
