Updates to the Custom 950: Now with Twin Outboards

We're excited to announce that our popular Custom 950 will soon be available with the option for twin outboards, offering enhanced performance and versatility for your sports fishing ambitions.

We are pleased to share some exciting news about one of our most popular boats, the Custom 950. Fans of large trailerable sportfishers may be interested to hear about the coming upgrade: it's soon available with twin outboards as an option.

The Custom 950 is the largest trailerable vessel in our lineup. It's long been popular with those who love specialised yet versatile trailerable sports fishing boats capable of comfortable live-aboard adventures. The Volvo Penta sterndrive works well, but a couple of enquiries for twin outboards inspired us to put the idea through the design process.

Why Twin Outboards?

  • Higher Cruising Speeds: The twin engines allow us to get higher cruising speeds over the single inboard, which means you get to your fishing spot and home again quicker.
  • Technology Advances in Outboard Tech: Some of the latest helm technology available from various brands has vastly improved the user experience on outboard-powered boats.
  • More Cockpit Space: While in no way intrusive, removing the underfloor engine compartment does free up even more usable fishing space in the Custom 950.
  • Twin Engine Peace of Mind: Having twin engines gives you that extra bit of assurance. If something goes wrong with one, you’ve got the other to rely on. It’s a nice safety net to have, especially when you’re out on longer trips.

The Perfect Balance

The Custom 950 has always been a great balance of size and functionality. It's big enough for comfortable living on board but still fits on a COF trailer. It's a fantastic choice for anyone who wants a high-performance fishing boat that’s also capable of travelling.

Built to Our High Standards

It's built to our industry-leading standards, making it rugged enough for serious fishing while still being finished without compromise for great looks and a comfortable live-aboard experience.

Check It Out

The Custom 950 with twin outboards is a great addition to our lineup and perfect for those who want a bit more flexibility and performance out of their fishing trips. If you’re curious about how the updated model would work for you, please touch base with the team.
