The Arksen 8 is the first rib in the UK builder’s Discovery Series. It’s designed to support on-the-water fun and après socializing. The Arksen 8 carries a deep-V hull form with 24 degrees of deadrise, a wide beam to enhance stability, and an asymmetrical deck layout with an offset console and versatile seating. It’s available in two versions: the standard Arksen 8 and the semicustom Arksen 8 Explorer.

Whom It’s For: Boaters seeking a sport-utility RIB with long range, solid speed, and seating for 12 people.

Picture This: Your friends are visiting you in San Francisco, and they want a bay tour. Everybody hops into the Arksen 8, and you cruise to the Alcatraz and Angel islands before exiting the Golden Gate Bridge and exploring the Marin Headlands. Then it’s a fast blast home for Sotto Mare’s famous cioppino.
