Rayglass Boats, one of New Zealand’s largest GRP boat builders, has announced the launch of the newest model in its Legend Series, the Legend 3000. The multipurpose cabin cruiser comes fully equipped with premium features and is the perfect crossover for boaters looking to entertain family and friends, spend the day fishing, or take a weekend getaway.

“Most models we see in the market today are either fully fishing-focused or designed solely for entertaining. The Legend 3000 fits in the hybrid sweet spot, combining comfort, ample space, and customisable options for all-in-one trips,” says Dean Harris, President, Rayglass Boats.

The Legend 3000 is the first in its category to incorporate modern elements from the Rayglass Protector range, like the sleek hardtop and sharp-design hull. The ergonomic helm station is outfitted with the latest Simrad technology including the 19-inch NSO Evo 3 multifunction display and 600W Totalscan Transducer.

Noteworthy features for anglers include the live bait tank, bait board, easy access cockpit storage lockers, Mercury QSD 350hp diesel or twin Mercury outboard engines, and optional offerings like electric reel outlets, tuna tubes, dive tank racks, and more.

Standard features that make the Legend 3000 great for entertaining and comfort include a large sunroof and two-way sliding glass side windows on the hardtop, a cockpit table, port and starboard king and queen seats and a transom bench seat, hot and cold freshwater stern shower, a galley with an electric refrigerator and freezer box, twin hob gas cooker, a large separate toilet, and top-of-the-line upholstery throughout.
