TROPHY 2502 WALKAROUND OFFSHORE FISHING // FAMILY // ALL ROUNDER Although designed as a fishing boat, the cabin aboard this boat makes it a very versatile weekenderBuilt for going out wide, the big Trophy 2502 Walkaround has all the bells and whistles for fishing offshore, plus double as a family weekender. With a history of building boats stretching over many decades, the Trophy range has certainly come a long way to where they stand today. Formerly the butt of many jokes, the Trophy brand is now the market leader in their class, and provides a well built product, likely to provide many trouble free years of boating. As with most of today's top manufacturers, all Trophy boats are designed using the CAD (Computer Aided Design) system, which is the most accurate and efficient method to build a boat available today. The Trophy 2502WA is built using an all-fibreglass stringer system. The one-piece rigid framework of stringers is bonded to the hull and deck while it is still in the mould, helping to avoid flex in the hull and create a solid one-piece structure. The US manufacturers, such as Trophy, are leaps and bounds ahead of most in regards to finish and fittings. The small things such as a light in the livebait tank, transom workstation including sink and freshwater, purpose built icebox, separate battery isolator panel, substantial stainless steel deck fittings (such as oversized cleats), oversized windscreen wipers, and much more proves the boat is designed to do the job. Fishing is what this boat is all about. When stepping aboard the non-skid self-draining cockpit, even the fussiest of buyers will be impressed. With a massive cockpit area and a rear transom fishing station, a setup like this has been dreamt about by anglers for many years. The transom consists of a fold-up rear lounge, a removable cutting table and purpose-built bin in the starboard side to accommodate a large icebox, centrally mounted 113lt plumbed livebait tank with light, and a sink with freshwater tap and deck door to port. Access to the batteries and battery switch is very simple through separate access hatches. The sidedecks are wide and have two rodholders and two drinkholders mounted in either side. More rod storage is also located in the sidedecks of the cockpit, in the cabin, and also up on the hardtop. The cockpit is surrounded by coaming bolsters to make bracing against the side of the boat comfortable in a hard fight. and heaps more...
