Haines Signature is an excellent family boat thanks to its renowned smooth ride and stable hull design, which delivers comfort and confidence even in choppy conditions. Combined with versatile layouts, generous seating and practical storage, it’s built to handle everything from fishing trips to relaxed days on the water with family and friends.
Built right here in Australia, Stacer aluminium plate boats deliver outstanding durability and versatility for active families who want one boat that does it all — fishing trips off the coast of Northern NSW, waterskiing on the Broadwater, or a relaxed day anchored at a favourite sandbar.
All Stacer vessels at Northside Marine are powered by Yamaha outboards — meaning you get the peace of mind of Australia's most trusted outboard engine combination.
The Highfield Sport range is a great choice for families thanks to its unique combination of lightweight performance, stability and premium comfort. With a soft ride, spacious seating and durable aluminium hull paired with inflatable tubes, it offers a safe and forgiving platform that makes time on the water easy and enjoyable for all ages.
Designed for versatility, the Sport range transitions effortlessly from cruising and beach days to water sports and exploring — giving families the freedom to do more on every outing with confident handling and low-maintenance ownership.
