Rayglass Boats, one off New Zealand's largest GRP boat builders today announced the launch of the newest and most versatile 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 customizable options for all-in-one trips," said Dean Harris, President, Rayglass Boats. "The adventures are endless with this model."

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 option offerings like electric reel outlets, tuna tubes, dive tank racks and more. Standard features that make the Legend 3000 the ultimate in 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.

Additional features and model specs include:

  • Premium captain seats with soft rider pedestals
  • Advanced controlling features for ease of use like Zipwake automatic trim tabs and optional bow thruster
  • Optional seat configurations like a sunlounger, and fold out cockpit seats for easy entertaining
  • Spacious flat foredeck with easy walk around

  • Beam - 2.5meters
  • Inboard - 270-370hp
  • Outboard - 400-600hp

The Legend 3000 will make its boat show debut at the Auckland Boat Show, March 14th-17th with both the inboard and twin outboard models on display. A single-outboard option will also be available later this summer.
