When Barry Tyler reviewed the Herley Elite 8 a few months back, he was blown away with the finish and styling of the boat. I recently had the chance to run the bigger Elite 9m, and I agree with all his comments.
In my opinion, Kiwi aluminium boat builders lead the world in trailerable hardtop designs, and the Herley Elite 9m is an outstanding example. However, it’s more than just another big alloy hardtop. It is different in many respects from the mainstream offerings, not only in the design with its plumb bow but also in the attention to detail and the raft of innovative ideas. It is a quantum leap from the Ramco 700, the first production hardtop built in New Zealand, which I reviewed in the mid-1980s.
