Overview
About this vessel
585 SPORT KIWI KRAFT HARDTOP is a 5.95 m aluminium pontoon hardtop designed and built to New Zealand CPC standard and MSA specifications. The model incorporates Kiwi-Kraft’s Hush Tec technology for superior performance and a quiet ride, with multiple sealed pontoon buoyancy chambers providing enhanced safety and stability offshore.
The boat is configured with a step-down cuddy cabin featuring upholstered bunks and a lined cabin and hardtop, offering weather protection and comfortable overnighting potential. A generous fishing cockpit is complemented by a large fillet board, outboard pod, walk-through transom with door, and rear boarding platform, making it highly practical for fishing and diving.
Standard equipment includes hydraulic steering, underfloor 150-litre fuel tank, underfloor storage (kill tank), bow rail, ski pole fittings, radar arch with alloy rod holders, trim tab mounts, and transducer mount. Electrical fit-out features LED lighting to the cabin, hardtop and deck, bilge pump, 6-way switch panel, battery isolator and battery box.
The hardtop provides excellent weather protection with sliding side windows, a roof panel with handrails, and a windscreen wiper. Seating consists of a king & queen seat to port (with hatch or Eski hole) and fully upholstered bolster seats on soft rider pedestals with sliders, optimising driver and passenger comfort in a variety of sea conditions.
Optional extras extend the boat’s capability with live bait tank, deck wash, rear folding bench seat, boarding ladder, auxiliary bracket, bunk infill, freshwater system, multiple anchoring and winch options, pot hauler, ski pole, twin outboard installation, additional seating, bunk extensions and a hydraulic steering recess kit, allowing significant customisation for fishing, family boating or adventure cruising.
