Shigari is a true testament to classic Kiwi sports fisher design, crafted with precision and pride. Designed by renowned naval architect Max Carter and built in 2010 by Wayne Olsen of Horizon Boats as his personal vessel, Shigari reflects a lifetime of New Zealand boating experience and craftsmanship.

From her generous internal volume and clever use of storage, to the large aft galley and easy-access flybridge staircase, every detail has been thoughtfully considered. Built for both serious fishing and comfortable family cruising, Shigari strikes the perfect balance between rugged practicality and refined living.

Powered by a single 567HP C9 Caterpillar, she’s engineered for simplicity, efficiency, and low maintenance. Cruise comfortably at 20-22 knots burning just 65–75 litres per hour, or throttle back to a fuel-sipping 18L per hour at 10 knots. Despite her 14m length, Shigari’s 4.6m beam creates a spacious, open-plan feel throughout.

Whether you're entertaining, relaxing, or chasing fish, she offers room to move and unwind.
