Libertas II
This spacious, state of the art, luxury game launch leaves nothing to chance and is fully equipped with every requirement that comes to mind.
Luxurious & spacious, with a prestigious Nationals fishing tournament win already under its belt and placed as Bay of Islands top charter boat 2008 and 2009....it's no slouch in the fish-catching stakes either.
Whether an extended live-aboard, luxury game-fishing safari or a relaxing day cruise, each trip is customised to meet your own requirements for a truly special experience.
Your skipper: Barnaby Newton

Barnaby Newton has more than seven years’ experience with both Libertas boats and has skippered many of her most successful expeditions. He’s from a family of keen boaties and passionate fishermen and spends as much time as he can on the water.
Barnaby is an experienced diver and can be persuaded without too much effort to fetch up a fresh feed of scallops and crayfish.
For extreme limits, where two skippers are required, Barns is often joined by brother Brodie, an expert and highly regarded fisherman, himself.
