Amara specialises in going over the Kaipara bar onto the Tasman sea. She is 20 meters long and has a cruising speed of 20 knots. We have a cabin with indoor seating, covered outdoor seating and a toilet. We are fully surveyed and insured.
About the Skipper
The Skipper, Mark Donaldson, is a local with over 40 years of experience as a commercial fisherman in the Kaipara. He knows all the best spots for catching fish. “Once you go fishing with me on my boat, you won’t want to go with anyone else.”
