Great Explorations Begin Amphibious Tour Boat

Ocean Craft Marine is thrilled to announce the launch of the newest addition to our Amphibious range: the Amphibious Tour Boat. These craft will enable tour operators and travel companies to offer their customers more flexibility and bigger experiences.

It also has the distinction of being the only AMSA certified (Australian Maritime Safety Authority) amphibious boat.

BUILT TO GO THE DISTANCE

9.8M long, the Amphibious Tour boat is outfitted with one main engine and a backup, and bench seating with provision for storage under the seats. It can carry up to 13 people including a driver. This amphibious vehicle can cover up to 6 miles an hour on land and reach speeds of 25mph on water.

The fiberglass deep-V hull and OCM’s unique reverse chines construction ensures smoother & drier rides, creates more lift for increased overall top-speed, and provides for extremely agile cornering capabilities in all sea conditions. It also increases the craft’s overall operational range per gallon of fuel carried and consumed.

DESIGNED FOR SEA AND LAND

OCM’s advanced BAS-80-4 Amphibious system, comprised of 4 independently motorized wheels that retract completely in the water, gives this amphibious vehicle its edge in the tour boat category on two fronts —

  • an expansive overland experience as tour operators can now access areas that were previously considered inaccessible, such as remote islands and coves
  • a great on-water experience as it can navigate shallow, deep and rough water with ease

CUSTOMIZED TO SPECIFICATIONS

We don’t believe in the idea that one size fits all. Customization is at the core of all our offerings, and this boat too can also be customized from the hull up, with choices for seating, engine placement, console, frame and covering, color as well as add-ons such as provision for diving tanks and more.

OCM is one of the few Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats (RHIBs) manufacturers in the world with the USCG Sub-Chapter “T” certification. We also have complete control over the manufacturing process – from design to delivery. For our customers, this means greater flexibility in terms of customization, quicker response and faster delivery.

AN OCEAN OF EXPERIENCES AWAIT

The Amphibious Tour boat is ideal for eco-tourism, whale-watching, sightseeing excursions, diving expeditions, and the like, as well as transporting work personnel to and from offshore facilities.
