The 2022 Herley Elite 8m represents the pinnacle of New Zealand boutique powerboat craftsmanship, now available in Nelson at a reduced price of NZD $430,000. Built by Herley — a respected name in high-quality custom New Zealand boat building — this Elite 8m delivers a refined on-water experience in a highly manageable 8.19-metre package. With a beam of 2.5 metres and an impressively shallow draft of just 0.35 metres, this vessel is ideally suited to exploring New Zealand's diverse coastal waterways, estuaries and harbours with ease and confidence.
The two-berth accommodation ensures comfortable overnighting for a couple or small crew, making extended weekend cruising entirely practical. The monohull configuration provides a predictable, stable ride, while the Elite's purposeful design prioritises both performance and comfort in equal measure. Herley builds to a high standard, and this 2022 example benefits from being virtually new, with minimal wear and the latest in design thinking.
Whether you're navigating the sheltered waters of the Marlborough Sounds or venturing further afield along the South Island's stunning coastline, the Herley Elite 8m is the ideal companion. An exceptional opportunity to acquire a near-new premium cruiser at a compelling price.
