Profisha 525

Stealth ProFisha 525 is a mid‑sized fishing ski designed for anglers who want a balance of speed and stability. Built using lightweight epoxy‑based composites and carbon fibre, it offers impressive hull speed for long offshore runs while keeping overall weight low. The refined rocker profile and low‑seated cockpit make surf launches and landings easier without sacrificing open‑water performance.
