Don Webb 17.5 m


Ricochet is a superb example of the revered Don Webb 17.5m, launched in 1989 and continuously upgraded to remain in exceptional condition. Purpose-built for serious coastal cruising and sportfishing, she blends classic New Zealand craftsmanship with the reliability and performance demanded by today's owners.

Powered by twin Caterpillar 3208s, Ricochet delivers the perfect balance of economy, range, and dependable torque, an ideal match for long-distance adventures from the Waitemata Harbour to Great Barrier Island and beyond. Her proven Don Webb hull design offers a soft, confident ride, ensuring comfort whether you're pushing into a head sea or settling into a relaxed passage with family and friends.

For the angler, Ricochet is a genuine sport fishing weapon. The expansive cockpit provides the space and functionality needed for game fishing, diving, or hosting a day on the water. The raised aft dining area is a standout feature, an elevated vantage point to enjoy a glass of wine, share stories at anchor, or watch the lure pattern as you wait for that explosive marlin strike.

Inside, her layout is warm, practical, and designed for extended stays aboard. Continuous improvements over the years, including major mechanical, structural, and systems upgrades, mean she presents as a turnkey vessel with the hard work already done.

Ricochet is the ideal choice for buyers seeking a well-proven, beautifully maintained New Zealand motor yacht capable of delivering unforgettable coastal cruising and serious bluewater fun.
