590 Vindicator Aluminium Offshore Fishing Boat
The Most Accessible Way To Own a Vindicator offshore Fishing Boat
Premium Offshore Performance in a Compact, Family-Friendly Package
Built for Serious Fishing. Designed for Australian Conditions. – Don’t let its size fool you.
The 590 Vindicator Aluminium Half Cabin may be the smallest model in the Vindicator range, but it delivers the confidence, strength and offshore capability normally expected from a much larger boat.
Purpose-built in Queensland for Australian conditions, the 590 has earned an outstanding reputation among anglers and boating families looking for a premium plate aluminium boat that is equally at home offshore, around the islands or exploring inland waterways.
Whether you’re chasing snapper on the reef, trolling for mackerel, spending weekends camping on the beach or simply enjoying a day on the water with the family, the 590 Vindicator offers the perfect combination of stability, ride comfort, practical fishing space and dependable performance.
Matched with a proven Yamaha Four Stroke Outboard and a custom-built Vindicator Aluminium Trailer, it’s a complete boating package designed to provide years of reliable service and unforgettable days on the water.
Built by Boaters Who Understand Offshore Fishing
Every Vindicator has been designed by people who spend time on the water.
Over many years, owner feedback has helped shape the latest evolution of the 590, resulting in a boat that is stronger, quieter, easier to maintain and even more comfortable to own.
One of the biggest improvements is the redesigned enclosed cabin.
Traditional clears have been replaced with a bonded safety glass windscreen and sliding safety glass side windows, creating a far stronger, quieter and more durable cabin that provides outstanding protection from wind, spray, rain and harsh Australian weather.
Whether you’re leaving before sunrise, crossing open water or returning home after an afternoon storm, the enclosed cabin keeps you protected while the opening front and rear windows provide excellent airflow on warmer days.
Built Tough from Premium Plate Aluminium
Every great offshore boat begins with a strong hull.
The 590 Vindicator is built using premium marine-grade plate aluminium with fully welded construction to deliver exceptional strength, durability and long-term corrosion resistance.
Unlike many lightweight production boats, the Vindicator is engineered to handle Australia’s demanding offshore conditions while providing the solid feel and confidence that serious boat owners appreciate.
Plate aluminium construction also offers excellent impact resistance, lower maintenance requirements and lighter towing weight compared with many fibreglass alternatives, making ownership easier both on and off the water.
From sheltered estuaries and rivers through to offshore reefs and coastal islands, the 590 is built to perform wherever your next adventure takes you.
Big Boat Comfort in a 5.9 Metre Package
One of the first things people notice when they step aboard the 590 Vindicator is how much room it offers.
Despite being the most compact model in the Vindicator range, its clever design provides the cockpit space, stability and fishing room of a significantly larger boat.
A generous 2.45-metre beam creates excellent stability both underway and at rest, while the spacious cockpit allows several anglers to fish comfortably without feeling crowded.
There’s ample room for tackle, eskies, dive gear, camping equipment, safety gear and everything needed for extended days on the water.
Whether you’re casting lures, bottom fishing offshore or entertaining family and friends, the practical layout makes every trip more enjoyable.
Yamaha 150HP Four Stroke – Proven Yamaha Reliability, Power & Fuel Efficiency
Powering the 590 Vindicator is the highly regarded Yamaha 150HP Four Stroke Outboard—one of Australia’s most trusted and proven marine engines.
Renowned for its outstanding reliability, impressive fuel economy and smooth, quiet operation, the Yamaha 150 delivers the perfect balance of performance and efficiency for offshore fishing, family boating and coastal cruising.
Matched to the 590 Vindicator’s offshore-capable hull, the Yamaha 150 provides strong acceleration, effortless mid-range cruising and the confidence to handle changing sea conditions with ease. Whether you’re running offshore to your favourite fishing grounds, towing skiers and water toys, exploring Queensland waterways or enjoying a weekend away with family and friends, the Yamaha 150 is built to perform.
Designed and engineered for demanding Australian conditions, Yamaha Four Stroke outboards have earned a reputation for exceptional durability and low operating costs, making them a favourite among recreational boaters, commercial operators and serious anglers alike.
For many boat owners, reliability isn’t just a convenience—it’s peace of mind. That’s why the Yamaha 150 continues to be one of the most popular outboards on Australian waters.
Combined with the proven offshore performance of the 590 Vindicator, it’s a package that delivers the power, economy and dependability needed to enjoy every boating adventure with confidence.
A Trailer Built Specifically for Your Boat
Unlike many boat packages that pair a hull with a generic trailer, every 590 Vindicator is supplied on a purpose-built Vindicator Aluminium Boat Trailer.
Each trailer is custom manufactured to match the hull perfectly, providing outstanding support, balanced weight distribution and easier towing.
Built using premium aluminium and quality Australian components, the trailer is designed to provide years of dependable service with minimal maintenance.
The standard Boat Catch System makes launching and retrieving faster, safer and easier, while a range of optional upgrades—including front boarding ladders and additional trailer accessories—can be added to suit your individual requirements.
