Streaker’s Classic Cuddy Gets an Upgrade
Streaker Boat’s venerable 5.02 Sports Cuddy model has received a fresh new-look with this versatile compact fishing boat sporting a full walk-through forward deck and bold new colours.
Providing safe and stable passage to the bow for anchoring and angling duties, the new 5.02 Cuddy Walk-Thru has been developed to give boaters more accessibility and safer, more comfortable access throughout the deck.
A proven 5.02 metre hull is the key formula for smooth performance onboard Streaker’s latest cuddy model. Ideal for small families and inshore coastal anglers, the 5.02 Cuddy Walk-Thru is a breeze to tow, launch and retrieve and provides a practical boating layout for water sports or serious fishing.
The key feature to the new 5.02 Cuddy Walk-Thru is the forward walk-through deck that allows the access through the flip up windscreen to the large forward hatch. Clever design allows a large adult to safely move forward to the bow while providing support and stability during anchoring or working a fish around the deck.
Forward visibility is excellent allowing easy access to the bow roller and cleats plus an uncluttered forward deck area means a person can fish unencumbered at the front without knocking elbows or tangling lines. But the walk-through feature is only the start of the Streaker boat advantage.
Spend five minutes onboard the new 5.02 Cuddy Walk-Thru and it is clear that the Streaker team spend a lot of time using their own boats. Cleverly designed fibreglass mouldings brim with features while space is maximised with smart storage ideas for all the necessary boating accessories.
For novice weekend boaters to seasoned skippers, the helm setup onboard lacks nothing, with all gauges, sounder and fused switch panel tucked neatly into a raised dash module. Across to port, the passenger dash has a solid stainless steel grab rail within reach plus a lockable glove box and two drink holders.
Down the back, two removable quarter seats flank a sturdy bait board while two rear bait boxes tucked into the transom provide more storage for the fishing essentials. Both cockpit coamings feature a recessed stainless steel grab rail and deck lights with rod racks tucked above the fibreglass side pockets.
The versatility of the Streaker 5.02 Cuddy Walk-Thru is even more apparent when choosing power options. This sporty cuddy model comes standard with a Yamaha Oil-Injected Saltwater Series 115hp outboard but can easily accommodate a Yamaha 100hp 4-stroke fitted by Streaker’s own factory technicians.
The Streaker 5.02 Cuddy Walk-Thru meets a range of boating needs. It is ideal for first time boaters looking for an economical and practical pleasure craft to entertain the kids over the weekend, and yet equally capable as an inshore or coastal angling platform for the weekend fishing enthusiast.
Towing the vessel is well within reach of most family cars with the complete boat, motor and trailer package weighing in at only 1100kg (approx). With the right outboard combination, the cruising range from the 88 litre sub floor fuel tank will outperform most comparable craft plus the hull can legally carry 6 persons if weekend sightseeing is regularly on the agenda.
Whatever the need, the Streaker Boats team always ensure their boating customers leave their showroom with a rig loaded with features for the ultimate Streaker Boats experience. So if practicality, economy and convenience are key themes in your leisure boating ideals, then the Streaker 5.02 Cuddy Walk-Thru is sure to top the list.
