McLay 661 CrossXover Hardtop | Family & Fishing Alloy Boat NZ | Warren Hay Marine

The McLay 661 CrossXover Hardtop is the largest and most capable model in the renowned CrossXover range, delivering exceptional offshore performance, all-weather protection, and a remarkably spacious layout for serious anglers and active boating families.

Built in New Zealand and designed specifically for demanding conditions, the 661 CrossXover Hardtop features an all-new hull design with wider gull wings, increased internal beam, and higher freeboard, creating outstanding stability at rest while delivering a soft, confidence-inspiring ride underway. The result is a boat that feels significantly larger than its 6.65-metre length suggests.

The fully enclosed hardtop provides year-round protection from wind, spray, rain, and harsh summer sun. Sliding side windows, curved safety glass, and a lined cabin create a comfortable environment whether you're heading offshore at first light or enjoying a family day on the water.

Safety remains a hallmark of the CrossXover range, with hundreds of litres of closed-cell buoyancy foam integrated into the gunnels, complemented by underfloor buoyancy chambers. This innovative design provides additional flotation and peace of mind without sacrificing cockpit space or functionality.

The enlarged cockpit offers ample room for fishing, diving, and entertaining, with seating for up to seven adults. A walk-through transom, boarding platforms, ladder, live bait tank, generous storage, hydraulic steering, and a 220-litre underfloor fuel tank make the 661 equally at home chasing gamefish offshore, towing skiers, or exploring remote coastlines with family and friends.

Whether you're upgrading from a smaller trailer boat or looking for a versatile all-rounder capable of tackling New Zealand's diverse boating conditions, the McLay 661 CrossXover Hardtop delivers premium comfort, impressive performance, and legendary McLay durability in one outstanding package.
