Haines Signature 788SF - Stealth Pack

Overview

The Haines Signature 788SF, known as "The stealth package assassin," is personally designed by John Haines to surpass Yankee imports. It is the ultimate towable sportfishing centre console with a 2.5m beam, built for serious offshore fishing while remaining fully trailerable for versatility. Rooted in Haines' racing DNA, the 788SF features a sleek, aggressive Variable Deadrise Hull designed for speed, stability, and low planing speeds, ensuring a smooth, controlled ride in demanding offshore conditions.

This model is fully rigged for hardcore anglers with a large, open deck designed for sport and game fishing, including deep coamings for stand-up battles and walk-through transoms on both sides for easy water access. It offers twin wet box/kill tanks under the floor, a fully plumbed live bait tank, and a rigging bench at the helm for efficient bait preparation. The boat provides ample storage with moulded gaff and rod compartments, stainless steel rod holders, and space for custom setups. With a 500L fuel tank, it delivers serious range to fish farther and faster. At the helm are twin Simrad 16" NSS Evo displays and Mercury joystick control, powered by a 400hp Mercury V10 engine blending refinement, power, and fuel efficiency.

While optimized for fishing, the 788SF is also comfortable for social or family outings, featuring a convertible U-shaped lounge in the bow with plug-in table, removable backrests, and under-seat storage for a portable icebox. Premium marine-grade vinyl trim and a lowline wraparound stainless rail add luxury and safety. The centre console includes a forward-facing seat, side-opening toilet compartment with porta potti and vanity, plus twin bolster-style helm seats for comfort on long runs.

This vessel represents the pinnacle of Australian built Centre Consoles, combining serious performance with striking looks.
