ORDER NOW – The Whitepointer 243 is Back in Production
Designed by legendary boat builder John Haines and refined by Whitepointer Boats, the 243 has earned a reputation as one of Australia's toughest offshore fishing platforms.
Built with a solid glass layup for Southern Ocean conditions, it's a boat that inspires confidence when the weather turns to s**t and the run home gets serious.
Commercial operator and owner of Salty Dog Charters Dan Hoey, runs a Wave Breaker Whitepointer 243 powered by twin Mercury SeaPro 200s out of Port Fairy and Bass Strait.
"They got it right from day one. I love this boat — it's the one I started my charter business in. I've tried to upgrade, but I keep coming back to the 243. It chases fish anywhere, splits water like an axe and performs beautifully."
Whitepointer is now building a limited run of Wave Breaker deck models, finished in white and sitting on a custom-built Savage Pro-Series alloy dual-axle trailer from $139,500.
If you've been waiting for the return of a proven offshore performer, now is the time to secure your build.
