The 1995 Pelin Crusader represents one of New Zealand's most respected production powerboat pedigrees — built tough, designed to cruise, and engineered for the demanding conditions of Kiwi coastal waters. Stretching 13.48 metres with a beam of 4.19 metres, this capable monohull offers a commanding presence on the water and genuine liveaboard or extended cruising comfort across its two well-appointed cabins. The modest 1-metre draft makes her well-suited to exploring the shallower bays and anchorages of the Marlborough Sounds, where she is currently located in Picton — arguably one of New Zealand's finest cruising grounds right on the doorstep.
Pelin Crusaders have long been admired for their solid construction, sea-kindly hull form and practical layout that prioritises real-world usability over showroom gloss. With a price reduction now in place, this is an outstanding opportunity to secure a substantial, proven cruising vessel at a compelling price point. Whether you're planning extended coastal passages, weekend getaways through the Sounds, or simply seeking a capable and comfortable live-aboard platform, the Pelin Crusader delivers.
Inspections are strongly encouraged — this vessel rewards a closer look.
