Kilwell NZ Outrigger 40.8 Blank 4.6m 12K(Ea) with Accessories

Kilwell NZ Outrigger 40.8 Blank 4.6m is a purpose-built drop-in outrigger blank crafted for offshore trolling reliability. Designed to slide neatly inside the SOB42 Kilwell Slimline outrigger bases, this blank features a robust spigot at the base, allowing it to slide in and out smoothly for faster, safer storage between deployments.

This blank is supplied as a standalone outrigger pole (rigging kits sold separately), giving you the flexibility to customize your setup with the finish and components you prefer. Choose from durable black finishes that balance stealth, UV resistance, and long-term durability:

• Fibreglass Spiraflex in black for a versatile, corrosion-resistant option with good flex characteristics under load.
• Black 12K carbon fibre for exceptional stiffness and lightness, ideal for long trolling spreads and high-speed conditions.
• Black 3K carbon fibre as a balanced choice between weight, strength, and cost.
