Discover The Herley Elite 9
Introducing the Herley Elite 9 premium powerboat. At Herley Boats, we take pride in designing vessels that offer ultimate comfort, luxury, and convenience at sea. The Elite 9 is based on the proven platform of our popular Herley Commander and Captain models. Our design philosophy starts with the hull, and the Elite is no exception. Drawing from traditional plumb bow theory, we’ve created a long waterline length and fine entry with a relatively flat aft area, resulting in exceptional stability both at rest and underway. The Herley Elite 9 is not only a joy to ride, but also built with weight in mind to keep her towable. With the latest technology, the Elite weighs in at 4.2 tonnes on the trailer and 3.4 tonnes on the water, making it easy to transport to your favourite destination. Experience the quality and comfort of the Herley Elite 9, the perfect vessel for those seeking an unparalleled on-water adventure.
Confidence at sea
The Herley Elite 9 offers a confident ride at sea thanks to its long waterline and plumb bow, which minimize pounding and ensure a smooth experience. The spacious forward cabins and head also boast full head height, adding to the comfort factor. With a wider beam of 2.8 meters and a variable deadrise of up to 9.5 degrees aft, the Herley Elite 9 is designed for stability, even in rough waters. This vessel provides ample living space and multiple sleeping areas, making it the perfect trailerable sport fishing launch. For those seeking even greater comfort, we offer an optional Quick DC mc2x3 air cooled gyro stabilisation system. This system ensures that everyone on board feels at ease, no matter the conditions.

Cockpit
The Herley Elite 9’s cockpit is a standout feature of this premium powerboat. The combination boarding door and swim platform provide easy access on and off the Elite from the dock, making it effortless to dive and swim. The design incorporates a lowering side hull to produce a 1-meter wide swim platform close to the waterline, which opens up the cockpit and creates a comfortable space for guests. We understand that storage is crucial on a boat, which is why the Elite 9 has plenty of options. There are lockable storage compartments for 10 game rods and reels tucked up in the forward berths, a massive storage locker in the center of the saloon floor, and additional storage built in under the saloon dinette, above the windows, and under and behind the galley. Specific spaces are designated for safety equipment, ensuring peace of mind while on board.
The Elite 9’s cockpit has been designed to cater to a variety of uses. The fold-out table on the portside gunnel can be relocated to the aft bulkhead seats, providing owners with space to enjoy a cocktail outside but undercover. Additionally, there is a huge storage locker under the cockpit floor, which is perfect for storing fishing equipment. The cockpit is primed for fishing adventures with padded gunnels, state-of-the-art rod holders, raw and fresh water washdowns, knee-activated wash stations, and a forward kill tank with a macerator pump-out. The dedicated compressor storage locker for diving enthusiasts is also a thoughtful addition. The Herley Elite 9’s cockpit is a versatile and functional space designed to meet the needs of any boating enthusiast.
interior
The interior of the Herley Elite 9 is designed with luxury and
functionality in mind. The full galley features a sink, cooktop, and plenty of
counter space for meal preparation. Multiple beds are available, with the
dinette table able to convert into a third bed. The interior is finished to the
highest standards, with bifold doors and windows opening to the cockpit and a
forward-opening windshield allowing for fresh air flow. You’ll find ample
storage throughout the boat, including overhead lockers in the forward
staterooms, a dedicated tackle locker in the transom, and two large draining
lockers for storing tuna bags or extra ropes. The Herley Elite 9 is the ultimate
trailerable sport fishing launch, with a comfortable and inviting interior
perfect for extended trips out on the water.
