The new Quicksilver 905 Pilothouse – where serious fishing meets comfortable cruising

Published on: 09/09/2015

The Quicksilver 905 Pilothouse will be making its debut in the UK on the Quicksilver stand at the Southampton Boat Show completing an impressive line-up of Pilothouse boats.

The new Quicksilver 905 Pilothouse has been designed without compromise. There is no need to choose between comfort and performance or fishing and cruising. The 905 Pilothouse has it all.

The 905 offers new levels of comfort for up to ten people with accommodation facilities for up to six. Safety on board has been well-thought out with a double passage way around the boat and an additional portside sliding door. High freeboards and conveniently positioned grab rails add to the overall safety features of this boat.

Offering a generous fishing cockpit and storage areas, the 905 Pilothouse caters for multiple anglers, with an ingenious fish station configuration that, at the touch of a button, slides back for maximum cockpit space. Integrated fish lockers in the cockpit floor offer a good solution for packing away the catch.

The precision engineered deep-V hull guarantees safe and practical handling in a variety of weather and sea conditions while the power of up to 500hp from Mariner or Mercury outboard engines gets you out quickly to where the fish are.

The 905 Pilothouse comes packed with great features including:

Ben Allen, General Manager, Marine Leisure Division, E. P. Barrus Ltd, comments, “The new 905’s impressive specification and competitive pricing make it ideally positioned in its sector.
