Sealegs 12RC takes the amphibious boat to a whole new level. Richard Milner spend a few hours on Auckland Harbour putting the new boat through its paces and came away impressed.
What started in 2001 as an idea on a napkin, like all great success stories of kiwi ingenuity, has grown to become a success story of kiwi boat building some 20 years later and some 1500 boats on the water, and let’s not forget the beach too.
For those that don’t know, Sealegs combines one of New Zealand’s privileges of great boating with trouble-free launching, retrieving, and going ashore and exploring our beautiful coastline. Of course, it doesn’t stop there. Sealegs boats have gone worldwide in recreational and commercial operations and are now in more than 55 countries. It’s a true testament to New Zealand boat building.
It is fair to say that there have been other designs for boats with wheels, but Sealegs were the first, and they certainly know how to stay out in front.
