SEALEGS Technology
Sealegs International is based in Auckland, New Zealand, where the Sealegs concept of amphibious boating was first invented and where they continue to be manufactured. The Sealegs Amphibious boats are sold and used by customers in 55 countries throughout the world.
The Sealegs Amphibious craft have been specifically designed and developed to take all the hassle out of the boat launching and retrieval process. The patented system consists of motorised, retractable and steerable wheels which are fitted to specially designed boats to give users a fully integrated, turn-key package.
These crafts can be driven from a storage location, down a boat ramp or beach and into the water – all with the occupants staying in the boat and remaining completely dry. Once in the water, the Sealegs wheels are easily retracted into the “UP” position and are completely out of the water. The craft is then driven and used as a normal high performance boat.
When approaching land, the Sealegs wheels are lowered whilst still moving in the water. It is then simply a matter of trolling towards the beach, when the Sealegs powerful motorised wheels touch the bottom and drive the craft up onto land. Passengers can then disembark, totally dry and safe.
