Sealegs 12RC

When many people think of Sealegs amphibious boats, they imagine something like the original 6.1-metre RIB that kicked off the range in the mid-2000s – something smallish to buzz about in then drive back up the beach to the boatshed. But the concept, and the company, has come a long way in the last 20 years, and the latest craft to hit the water sets a new standard in terms of what an amphibious alloy RIB can be.

Expected more bathroom!

That aside, the idea of a coastal cruiser that can overnight on the beach is amazing. Hopefully we see more and bigger boats in this category. With proper bathrooms!

Uk watching, great boat, as a great video 🎉😊

That is a beautiful vessel you Kiwis really are excelling at building TOUGH and sleek boats!. Putting Aussies on notice.

On a funny note I just finished watching "Far North" on Stan and couldn't help but laugh at the beach launch scenes🤣. Something allot of people might not realise it's just the way you have to launch in allot of places in NZ.

Love ya work Boating NZ!

That’s what I’m talking about. Thanks for inspiring craft design. I would love one. ❤

Very good, the boat is very complete with all the advanced features. One unit if we buy it in Indonesia, the total will be several senior dollars.

Greetings coming from Indonesia, Maluku province in the Aru Islands, healthy greetings to continue to strike and greetings from fellow anglers

Military and Police should adopt this sort of quick reaction shore to sea to shore boat for the seal teams and covert response.

I can afford this and have a perfect beach front home for a SL boat. I contacted SL to purchase but no one contacted me back, is this even a real company?

Amazing! She is really beautiful! Do you have an electric battery powered- diesel hybrid propulsion version? Or a hydro-foil version? Greetings from Madang, Papua New Guinea!

1, 200 hp and 8 tons, its gotta do more than 50 knots, I would think 60+

[DB-thats-me]

Soooo many questions. 😳
But number one, is this road transportable?
#2, how well will she take a pair of OX diesel o/bs?
Great looking vessel! 👍

Cool you can drive to the gas station to buy petrol as there are very few and far apart wharf facilities that have petrol as you circumnavigate New Zealand.

Now add a foil that flips down making it a tail dragger... We built one at Navatek ships ltd call wave rider...

[puddlesjumper]

That's a gas hog though. Twin V12 engines burning over 31 gal an hour at 40 knots.
That's almost as much as my friends P-51 airplane does.

Too bad they don't make something for the middle class.
