This is an excellent opportunity to purchase an 8.2m Yar Class ex – demonstrator workboat. She is made from HDPE making her a light and durable alternative to conventional GRP.  She has an excellent specification including Shock mitigating seats, Bimini and a radar. 

Powered by twin Mercury 115hp Outboards, she boasts only 25 hours and a top speed of 40+ knots with a comfortable cruising speed of 25 knots. She has a very spacious deck with high gunwales for a safe and stable ride. She also has a large seating area at the bow and loads of storage onboard. 

She includes: 

Twin Mercury 115hp Outboards 

4x Shark shock mitigating seats 

Fusion stereo system 

Garmin chart plotter 

Garmin VHF radio 

Garmin Radar

Mercury MFD 

Forward v-berth seating area 

4x cleats

Summary of HDPE Advantages:

Virtually Indestructible + Zero Hull Maintenance

Impact Resistance

HDPE’s natural toughness and durability make HDPE capable of withstanding impact from collisions with debris, rocks, or other vessels, reducing the risk of damage and costly repairs.

Sustainable

HDPE is recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly choice for workboat hulls, with the potential for material reuse. Its low carbon footprint makes it the most sustainable choice in boat hulls.

Lightweight Material

HDPE has a lighter density than water, making it naturally float on water. This helps the buoyancy of our vessels, increasing the max payload.

Cost Effective

HDPE’s durability and low maintenance requirements can result in a reduction of operational costs over the lifespan of the workboat. Less time in the shipyard also means more time on the water.

Corrosion-Free

Unlike metals, HDPE is inert and a good isolator, therefore it doesn’t corrode, rust, or degrade when exposed to saltwater, so no galvanic corrosion! 

Long Lifespan

HDPE hulls undergo no ageing and can endure prolonged exposure to UV rays without significant degradation, ensuring a longer service life for workboats.

Easily repaired

If damage occurs HDPE is easy to repair in situ using portable tools. By using the same materials flush patches can be fabricated and fitted with minimal disruption to the serviceability of the vessel.
