With launch wheels deployed the boat can be easily launched and retrieved off the beach to explore those hard to reach places.
The tubes are like none I have seen on a rib before! Extremely tough with reinforced wear patches as standard to put up with the abuse that comes with diving and spearfishing.
The deep v keel enables the Seapro to cover good ground in rough conditions as I discovered on a recent trip 6 miles offshore in France. Heading into a 20 knot wind I was extremely impressed with how the little boat coped!
As for the parsun 20hp, myself with all my gear, weights and a cooler of fish in calm conditions I achieved a top speed of 18knots! Though she is happiest cruising at around 12-16, she will also plane at really low speeds which is perfect for leaving my local estuary where the speed limit is 8 knots. At any rate, you can cover some serious ground with this package.
On that note, I have to mention the economy, which is simply extraordinary. The parsun 20hp engine is eye poppingly economical and I have just motored over 50miles and still not had to fill up the 24litre tank!
Electric start is a bit of a luxury, but most appreciated during a long days diving!
If you’re after a boat that is cheap to run and easy to chuck in to access those hard to reach spots, then the little seapro is a fantastic option. I’m always planning my next adventure, check out what I’m up to on the little weapon on YouTube!
