2018 Elite 12.8 Sports Sedan

Alexander Marine Australia are pleased to have SOLD the 2018 Elite 12.8 Sports Sedan 'Kooringal'.

Meticulously maintained and built to the highest standard by Scott Lane Boat Builders under the iconic design expertise of Bill Upfold, 'Kooringal' is a true showcase of New Zealand boatbuilding excellence. She masterfully blends striking aesthetics, clever design, and superb craftsmanship, with the added benefits of a low-maintenance design with no exterior varnish, single-engine simplicity with a spacious, easily accessible engine room, and a high-quality New Zealand finish throughout. 'Kooringal' offers her next owners an exceptional and effortless on-water experience.

Stepping aboard, you're greeted by a spacious teak-laid cockpit designed with socialising and relaxation in mind. The extended teak-laid swim platform offers easy access to the water for swimming, fishing, or launching the True Kit RIB. Every detail of the cockpit has been thoughtfully considered to maximise comfort and functionality, creating a versatile space to enjoy long summer days on the water. There's room for a table and ample seating, making it ideal for alfresco dining. For added versatility, a Euro-style cockpit shade awning and mesh covers offer privacy and protection from the elements, ensuring comfort in all conditions.

Storage is exceptionally well thought out onboard, with an abundance of cleverly designed spaces to stow gear for every adventure. With dedicated space for essentials, including room for a portable Weber BBQ against the saloon bulkhead. A huge lazarette beneath the cockpit sole provides ample room for bulky gear, while additional deck boxes and a built-in rod locker ensure everything from fishing tackle to cruising equipment has its place. At the transom, practicality continues with a shower/sink to port, perfect for post-swim rinse-offs or cleaning up, while a bait tank to starboard adds to the vessel's fishability.

Bifold doors and a hopper window seamlessly connect the cockpit to the bright and welcoming saloon. Large wraparound windows flood the space with natural light and deliver panoramic views, enhancing the feeling of openness. To starboard, a comfortable lounge featuring a drop-down armrest invites you to relax, while forward to port a raised U-shaped dinette offers a perfect spot for meals with family and friends, all while taking in the scenery. Rich timber finishes and elegant custom cabinetry highlight the exceptional craftsmanship throughout, creating a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. Located aft to port, the fully equipped galley boasts the essential appliances, ample bench space, and excellent storage, perfect for preparing everything from casual snacks to gourmet meals. A hopper window opens out from the galley to the cockpit, creating an effortless indoor/outdoor flow that's ideal for entertaining.

Forward to starboard, the helm station offers outstanding visibility and a commanding view of your surroundings. Well laid out with comfortable seating and Furuno navigation equipment, ensuring the captain has everything they need at their fingertips. The ergonomic design keeps everything within easy reach, making it a joy for any skipper to take the helm.

Below deck, 'Kooringal' offers a two guest cabin accommodation layout. The master cabin to port provides a restful haven with a double bed, generous storage and refined timber accents. Forward, the guest cabin features twin single berths, perfect for family or visiting friends. Both cabins reflect the same attention to detail and quality craftsmanship seen throughout the vessel. A spacious bathroom to starboard, complete with quality fittings and ample room for comfortable use during extended stays aboard. Cleverly concealed within the shower is a door that leads to the utility room, a highly practical space offering additional storage as well as internal access to the engine room and onboard systems, making servicing and stowing gear simple and efficient.

Powered by a single low-hour 480hp Cummins QSB6.7 engine, 'Kooringal' delivers confident, economical performance. She cruises comfortably between 18-20 knots and can reach up to approximately 26 knots, striking the ideal balance between efficiency and power. The single-engine setup ensures simpler maintenance and excellent fuel economy, making her a practical choice for adventurous coastal cruising.

Whether you're seeking relaxed weekends or extended coastal adventures, 'Kooringal' is ready to deliver unforgettable experiences in comfort and style.
