New Zealand based Sealegs International has announce the coming release of the Terminator 755 Amphibious by Sealegs at the Auckland On Water Boat Show. The craft features System 60, the amphibious enablement system (AES) by Sealegs, and was developed by Terminator Boats.
This latest addition to the expanding amphibious product range demonstrates the on-going efforts and success of the Sealegs AES Strategy previously seen in craft released by Stabicraft and ASIS. Sealegs plans to continue the strategy of developing amphibious craft through offering amphibious systems to global boat manufacturers to widen our product range and reach of customers.
Brazen Composites and its subsidiary Terminator Boats have a long history in building composite craft. The Terminator 755 is the first 100% fiberglass model released with Sealegs that does not feature the Hypalon or Aluminium pontoons previously seen in the rest of the Sealegs range.
The standard hull and Amphibious Enablement System will have a retail starting price of just $149,000 + outboard, options
Sealegs CEO, David McKee Wright said “with every new partner we appoint under the AES strategy, our systems and processes improve to better accommodate the needs of a wider range of boat manufactures. The Terminator 755 demonstrates the ability to leverage the expertise of alternative boat manufacturers, as we benefitted from the skills of our partner, Brazen Composites, to release the all-fiberglass boat. A skillset where Sealegs has limited experience.”
He went on to say “by leveraging the efficient manufacturing base in Malaysia, and the lower cost manufacturing process of fiberglass, we have been able to introduce an introductory price that is better than any other in the Sealegs range.”
The Terminator 755 Amphibious by Sealegs will be available for viewing at the Auckland On Water Boat Show from the 29 September through 2 October 2016, on Sealegs Island, Viaduct Events Centre, Auckland. The standard hull and Amphibious Enablement System will have a retail starting price of just $149,000 + outboard, options and gst. Sealegs will also be running an introductory special until the end of the boat show for just $125,000+gst.
