A Bulletproof Offshore Fishing Weapon
At 7.3 metres overall with a 2.45-metre beam, the Bar Crusher 730HT sits toward the top of Bar Crusher's hard top range, built and positioned as a genuinely bulletproof platform for extended coastal trips targeting large game fish. With a dry weight of around 2,260kg and an engine window of 200 to 350 horsepower, it's built to be powered up properly for serious offshore work rather than run conservatively.
The Largest Cockpit in the Range
One of the 730HT's standout practical features is its cockpit — the largest fishing area of any Bar Crusher model. For anglers who spend serious time fighting fish, moving around gear, or fishing multiple lines at once, that extra working room is a genuine functional advantage, not just a spec-sheet number.
Built on Bar Crusher's Core Technology
Like every Bar Crusher hull, the 730HT is built around the brand's three signature technologies: the WaveSlicer® deep-V hull, engineered to slice through waves without the pounding that comes with flatter-bottomed boats; Rigideck®, an engineered sealed sub-floor system built for genuine structural toughness; and Quickflow® water ballast, which manages stability at rest and smooths the transition onto the plane. A 420-litre fuel capacity, protected by the SafeTank™ system, backs up the extended-range positioning.
Comfortable Enough to Stay Out Longer
The hard top cabin includes a 1.75-metre bunk and the option of a slide-out fridge, giving the boat genuine overnight capability for longer offshore trips rather than treating the cabin purely as storage. Sliding side windows and a forward hatch add practical ventilation and access, and the boat is rated for up to six persons.
Trailering Built In
The 730HT comes with a custom-designed trailer fitted with Bar Crusher's own Bar Catch® launch-and-retrieve system, extending the "built as a complete package" philosophy that runs through the rest of the range — the trailer is engineered specifically for this hull rather than treated as an afterthought.
Part of a Proven Platform
This model overview sits alongside a growing body of real-world 730HT stories already covered elsewhere: Hook, Line and Sinker's factory-option delivery story, their subsequent billfish grand slam catch aboard "The Producer," and an independent Fishing Monthly boat test running a Suzuki 225hp four-stroke. Together, they give prospective buyers both the spec sheet and the real-world proof points for the same platform.
