Glistening
Waters has been purpose built to fish East Cape waters and can carry sufficient
fuel to troll for 10 days without need to refuel.The vessel is fast and seaworthy
which means more time fishing in productive water. For tournaments with restricted
fishing times this can prove invaluable. To reach the weigh station before closing
with that prize winning fish, a large fast vessel is hard to beat | | |
