Rayglass Legend 2700

Published

Rayglass Boats debuted the Legend 2700 at the Hutchwilco Boat Show in May. This new vessel is an evolution of the company’s most popular boat and New Zealand’s most awarded fibreglass boat ever – the Legend 2500.

This boat was tailor-made, considering almost 20 years of customer feedback on the Legend 2500. Rayglass founder Tony Hembrow says when designing the vessel, they wanted to address all the things that customers didn’t like and improve on all the features they did like.

The result is a truly multi-purpose, trailerable vessel built to enable the Kiwi adventure lifestyle: fishing, long-range cruising, entertaining family and friends, or overnighting in complete comfort.

The Legend 2700 still has all the features that Kiwis loved about the 2500: unsinkable hull design, high build quality, spacious cabin, and extended hardtop. But Rayglass has added several refinements and updates. That includes an edgier, modern design and an updated flat windscreen with improved visibility. There’s more headspace in the separate toilet and more room to stretch out in the cabin when overnighting, plus a larger full galley than the 2500. The boat’s storage is also significantly greater, there’s more cockpit space and more seating.
