Sealegs coming to BC Show

Front View

Apr 25, 2019

While there are various amphibious boats on the water today, none have measured up to SEALEGS Amphibious Watercraft in terms of construction, performance, and reliability.

Each model seamlessly interfaces between water and land so users can drive right into the water and retract the wheels without even stopping – whether it’s off a sandy beach or rustic shore. Boaters can launch and land the boat by themselves, and access various confined areas where other boats can’t, which makes them ideal for emergency rescue and fire applications due to their versatility. No need for a dock, either.

Models are available in six designs ranging from 6.1 to 9.0 m (20 – 30 ft), based on aluminum RIB hulls, and incorporate a set of three, low pressure (eco-friendly) 25-inch all-terrain tires – one at the bow and two at the stern – that electronically raise via hydraulic legs when on the water, then can be lowered when approaching shore. Once on land, however, SEALEGS manoeuvres effortlessly up to speeds of 10 km/h (6.2 mph) thanks to its all-wheel drive system that’s powered by an independent 24 hp Honda hydraulic motor, rigged beneath the operator’s seat. For the larger models, a 35 hp Briggs and Stratton is used and situated under the centre console.

Pursuit S268 Sport CC

By Andy Adams

The Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console is a do-it-all kind of boat with a solid sense of style. Centre console designs have been developed for the southern blue water sport fishing enthusiasts (and this boat would raise fish with the best of them) but the Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console offers far more utility and enjoyment than just fishing.

The store front was about 10 x 20 and the rest of that side of the building was a stock room, wood finishing room, then behind that was more back stock and the lunchroom. Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
