Boat International US Edition – May 2019

(Rick Simeone) #1

The designs
Real-world Antarctica-savvy thinking has gone into this
limo tender, landing craft and submarine, from safety
considerations to highly specific style inspiration.


Star features
The landing craft boasts short shaft outboards for
shingle beach landings, a landing ramp to keep feet
dry and seats influenced by Hermès saddles. The
electric two-guest sub will have all-round windows and
enough fail-safes to operate under the Antarctic Treaty

“We have a
submarine with
an inflatable
balloon, to get
