Overview

About this vessel

Torea is a beautifully presented 28ft David Wade 6designed planing launch, offering excellent performance, comfort, and value. Built in New Zealand in 2001, she features a proven glass-over-ply hull with kauri framing and has been meticulously maintained by her long-term owner.

Recently repowered with a 2025 Honda BF200 four-stroke outboard with just 30 hours, the engine is backed by approximately six years of factory warranty remaining. Torea cruises efficiently at 16 617 knots burning around 30 L/hr, and reaches speeds of up to 30 knots. Recent antifoul, engine service, and regular waxing see her presented in excellent condition.

The light, welcoming interior sleeps up to five, with all upholstery replaced in 2025. Features include a gas galley with fridge and freezer, diesel cabin heating, gas califont hot water, modern Garmin electronics, electric anchor winch, trim tabs, and generous tankage. Currently berthed at Sandspit with berth options available, Torea is a turnkey weekender, family cruiser, or capable fishing platform.
