Tristram Marine’s much-anticipated world premiere of the all-new model ‘X’, now revealed to be the Tristram 821 Offshore, took place on Thursday 25th June 2020.

The new model features SeaDek flooring throughout the cockpit and pilothouse, which is cut for Tristam in Featherston, New Zealand, by SeaDek Certified Fabricator Batavian Rubber.


According to Tristam Marine, this long-range blue water sports fishing boat is set to change the GRP trailer boat industry in New Zealand with its highly sought after 8.77m LOA and 2.78m beam, broad shoulders, wide side decks, raised sheer and trademark aggressive but sleek ‘Tristram’ profile.
In addition to the ever-popular diesel sterndrive powerplant option, Tristram has also released a twin outboard configuration in the all-new 821 Offshore with optional joystick piloting for 360-degree skipper control and Skyhook digital anchoring.
In conjunction with Simrad, Tristram now exclusively offer a full glass helm in the 821 Offshore, uniquely featuring a 100% digital information display. What begins as a black glass panel lights up to reveal two 12” screens featuring a range of GPS chart, depth sounder, engine and on-board system displays with just the turn of the key.

Since the new model’s inception, the brief has been ‘wide open seas’. Therefore size, range and performance immediately became the hero features of Tristram’s new 821 Offshore. Crafted in-house once again with state-of-the-art CAD software, the all new model is within 1mm of accuracy port to starboard and bow to stern, with subtle mouldings that create an incredibly soft, dry and stable ride in even the most severe of New Zealand’s offshore weather conditions.
Several unique features for the most discerning of game anglers are found across the 821 Offshore’s deck platform. Large storage lockers are found under bunks, seats and the cockpit floor including two 3m long underfloor rod lockers to suit 50 wide game reels. Gear can be washed in situ with each locker featuring drains to the 821’s on-board sump system.

Built-in tuna tubes (two or four) can be optioned into the transom of the 821 Offshore. An 80L live bait tank is also featured on the new model with the ‘Tristram’ logo routered into the curved acrylic front.
