Hunts Marine is proud to stock Kingfisher boats!

Manufactured in New Zealand, Kingfisher aluminium boats are twin hull catamarans creating an unbeatable ride. The twin hulls mean more buoyancy around the outside of the boat, not in the middle, which increases stability and safety for the driver and passengers. In fact, they’re the most stable boats on the market.
