Overview
About this vessel
The Stessl Trophy Side Console is a versatile plate aluminium sportfishing boat designed to perform confidently in a wide range of coastal and offshore conditions. Its sea-friendly hull combines increased freeboard, a wide beam and pronounced reverse chines to deliver reassuring stability at rest and a soft, predictable ride underway.
Built on Stessl’s foam-filled Platerix2 hull with full-height floor-to-hull frames and bulkheads, the Trophy Side Console feels solid underfoot and runs exceptionally quiet through chop. A large raised front casting deck with generous underfloor storage provides a productive platform for lure and bait anglers, while the sports side console with windscreen and large dash fascia caters for oversized electronics and modern helm layouts.
Practical fishability is backed by a long list of standard features across the size range, including fully welded gunnels and side decks, enclosed rear transom with twin hatches, large aluminium anchor well, side pockets and multiple rod holders. Hydraulic steering, quality seating, underfloor foam flotation and long-range aluminium fuel tanks make the Trophy Side Console well suited to serious day trips, estuary and bay work, and offshore sessions when the weather allows.
