The SeaLegs. Whoa, bolt-on wheels that let you drive a boat into and out of the water without getting wet? Bonza! Oh hold on, that’s Aussie, not Kiwi. What’s the New Zealand for cool? What? Oh…onya!

 Sealegs are motorised, retractable and steerable boat wheels which are fitted to a customised 5.6m Rigid Inflatable boat.The Sealegs system works by having powerful motorised wheels which give a user variable speed of 0-10KPH (forward and reverse). Sealegs allows the boat to be driven from a storage location, down a boat ramp or beach and into the water – all with the occupants staying in the boat and remaining COMPLETELY DRY. Once in the water, the Sealegs wheels are easily retracted into the “UP” position and are completely out of the water.
