PURSUIT 8 | AMPHIBIOUS OPTION
Same ride, more versatility. Meet the Assault Pursuit 8 Amphibious.
Our all-new Amphibious 8 flaunts the same world-class finishing and ride that our other Assault Pursuits possess, but has a completely re-designed hull and transom for optimised performance with the amphibious system. Designed for easy launching whether it be from a bach or for commercial operations.
FINISHING
Assault Boats have gone very upmarket with the finish of the boat, which is eminent from the lined hardtop to the look and feel of the upholstery.
“We have learnt a lot from the Europeans in upmarket design and finish and wanted this same feel and look in our new range of boats”, says MD Peter Carlson.
RIDE
With completely new moulds built for the hull, including a D-shaped transom to create a small platform in front of the wheels. The hull is fully composite, enabling the builders to keep the weight down to under 1900kg without fuel or crew.

AMPHIBIOUS
"The amphibious system is a push-start, then it’s a matter of deploying the wheels hydraulically, again through a simple push-button system. The Garmin screen can display the bow camera view so you can be sure the wheel is fully down, then the outboard needs to be trimmed right up and, bumpity-bump, we’re up onto the sand and powering forward as a vehicle rather than a boat."
