Sealegs 8.6 Alloy MAX | Boat Tour
Sealegs has responded to customer feedback, producing a craft similar to their popular 8.5m Alloy Cabin, but which is definitely a significant step up in terms of space and refinement, differentiating it enough to appeal to a select market segment. Owners will enjoy a 42% significantly enlarged cockpit/rear deck space area compared to the 8.5m Alloy Cabin, opening up the 8.6 Alloy Max platform to incorporate even more customer-specific requirements including wheelchair accessibility via a Davit system, cray pot hauler davits and electric reel plug-in points. On-land manoeuvrability is made easier thanks to the 60% improvement in the craft’s turning circle, courtesy of the recently released Sealegs front wheel ‘Super Steering’ system.
The new ergonomic dashboard design seamlessly accommodates the Yamaha Helm Master. Onboard switching and control are cleverly achieved through the use of BLINK digital control systems that faultlessly integrate the craft’s onboard marine and amphibious systems allowing you to effortlessly switch between ‘All Wheels Up’ and ‘All Wheels Down’ with a single push-button operation. These systems deliver an intuitive, easy-to-operate user interface, most importantly providing reliability and safety.
In addition, you will enjoy immersing yourself in the ambience of the optional lockable and fully enclosed cabin, courtesy of new mood lighting, featuring LED roof strips and side pillar lighting, while enjoying the music of your choice via the Fusion, 4-speaker sound system. Navigating at night is easier with improved visibility due to an integrated 2200 lumen ‘Light Bar’ affixed to the cabin top forward of a slimline solar panel, providing extra battery top-up.
Flexibility and comfort are assured with Queen Seats equipped with pull out drawers (complete with a 90l chilly bin), or simply settle for additional storage under the seat. The aft stylised ‘Fishing Station’ includes a drawer, table, rod holders and an optional live bait tank.

Guardian Trailers Flood Rescue Prototype Vessel
มุมมอง 235หลายเดือนก่อน
From launch to on-water manoeuvres at low and high speeds, both in shallow and deeper water and while executing simulated rescues, to final retrieval at the boat ramp, this craft lived up to its promise. But it isn’t a trailer; well yes, it is, but it is also a boat (well more like a landing craft) with retractable wheels, which sort of makes it an amphibian vessel. But it has an outboard, but ...
Island Gypsy 40 WB | Walkthrough
มุมมอง 125หลายเดือนก่อน
The Island Gypsy 40 Wide Body may be the smaller of the Island Gypsy offerings in terms of her size, but to find a cruiser with this much useability and liveability for under 900 K is going to be a bit of a stretch. Especially when you consider it comes as a kind of a “hamburger with the lot” with its delivery inclusions incorporating navigation equipment, auto pilot, bow and stern thrusters, g...
Admiral 10m Sportfisher | Boat Tour
มุมมอง 197หลายเดือนก่อน
Marine Magic is Admiral Boat’s new 10m Sportfisher and arguably the best yet! Since launching the first Admiral 10m Sportcruiser in 2018, Steve Clement and his small team have produced slightly better than one of these “big little launches” a year. That’s some achievement given the care and attention that clearly goes into each and considering how turbulent some of those past seven years have b...

Vicem 95 Cruiser | Boat Tour
มุมมอง 1103 หลายเดือนก่อน
Vicem is not a common brand in Asia Pacific but this latest custom-built 95-footer may very well change that. The Turkish yard has a 33-year-long history of producing vessels based on a traditional approach to both build and aesthetics. In my travels as a yachting journalist, I'd most often see them at the Cannes and Genoa boat shows, usually standing out among the acres of other large yachts b...

I’ll never understand the comment section. Long narrow hulls with a stern superstructure are not exclusive to fpb nor was it the first boat to have it, not even the 100th or 1000th. Yet that’s all anyone can compare it too. It seems everyone demands perfection, yet cannot even make their own beds.
Muito bom 👏👏👏👏😃 Mas faltou colocar autonomia😮
When you pick up the lazzeret your gonna dump out the ice chest and BBQ pit, ? Wt?
How shallow can I get one of these, full keel, w channels, much smaller volvo pentas,
Needs a wheel at the helm
What dose the trailers look like?
Put a MerCruiser 1350 on it then you can say it has lots of horsepower. Why are they afraid to put big engines in these boats?
They have a 496ci option
That's the best built boat I've come across and would want to own one day..... well done and cheers to the builders of this boat
Lovely boat, does it have berths did I miss that?.😊
calmest beach ever
maritimo M600 VIDEO
A year behind on my comment but gotta say, this was an excellent review.
This is awesome
Why don't they sell them in the US?
Thank you for the presentation. Great looking yacht. Reminds me of a Dashew FPB and now the Arnsen, with utility on the outside, and cozy simplicity on the inside.
Türkiyeye Satisiniz Varmidir
I love the cockpit space .Good for game fishing.But i would remove that seating area in the cockpit for more space .
My dad owed the vindex 375 sports cruiser model . Haven't seen any sports cruiser around New Zealand.
The balance is an abortion. Stablizers? Extra weight on the FB? The stern is a complete compromise making it dangerous surfing at speed. Idiots.
$40,000 USD? IT is a darn nice boat but a top of the line performance jetski is about 24k? I still want one but wow.
It's a tender not a jet ski. Think before you post.
@@MichaelLewandowski-i8g I compared the relative cost for another jet powered watercraft. Of course a Dinghy would cost more but it is surprising how much more. Even so It is a very desirable jet dinghy.
Very nice
Do they do inboards?
Nope im pretty sure they don´t
RIP Barry, I have loved your boat reviews for many years….I also share your passion for boats 🙏
👍👍👌👌
RIP Barry , Have enjoyed your reviews for many years, You'll surely be missed 🙏
Where is all that Nazi gold I hid back in the 40's.......
Gran bella barca.
Glad to see a maker has picked up on the design and brought it into production.
Nice boat. Love the hull colour
Excellent boat! Similar to the Sargo.
Bella l'imbarcazione 👍
Ya du cash en tabarnac mais a Quel Prix ,les amis....
where are the people that buy these beauties ...I want to see people fishing and entertaining off one of these lol
Beautiful boat
Like a botnia targa
Love to it on the foils.
Very nice boat looks great 👍
FPB Copy
It's made by the same company that built all the fpbs you dingus.
'promo sm' 🙋
But it has a sterndrive... why didn't they install the Volvo Forward Drive?
This is built for speed more than a tow sports boat
@@keithdarman90 Not if it's only doing 46mph with 350hp.
That old guy probably never dropped the hammer down. It should hit 60 or very close. If not then this boat has issues. @@cousineddie7444
Hi, great review, what's the total towing weight on trailer with full fuel tank? Thanks
I simply love this rig
Nice to see FPB copies but they are all still fat and slow compared to the real thing.
Not for QLD coast. 50knots and your foil hits an adult green turtle. GAME OVER 😢
okay how would that be different than a keel or a keel with fins?
@@vorjay 👈🤣🤣🤣
@@bigbopper143 you people create these silly scenarios and when asked a simple question you just laugh it off. how is a a simple foil anymore of a danger than anything else underneath a boat going 44 knots. especially since a foil at that speed lifts the boat 6 inches higher than it would normally be without it?
Most foils have a breakaway ability in the event of striking an object. You'll be replacing the expensive foil, of course, but better that than a hole in the hull.
This bost is amazing
😍😍😍
How is the cabin in hot sunny days?
Beautiful & comfortable yacht for a family outing.We celebrated Mother's Day on this yacht & had a great time! Thanks to Saxdor 320 GTC!
did you charter or own? im interested in learning how it is for a few days stay
I like i want must work harder
What is the price?
