The ride has just gotten even better with the release of the new Haines Hunter Overlander Pursuit 725, Haines Hunter’s first amphibious craft.
The release of the Overlander configuration expands Haines Hunter’s flagship 725 range, and sees the new model combining Haines Hunter’s award winning 21° deep V hull, and the New Zealand designed and manufactured Anura amphibious system – the Overlander is the ultimate adventure machine.
Capable of over 44 knots with a 350hp four stroke outboard, the Overlander has a supremely comfortable, quiet, and dry ride, as well as all of the amenities onboard for a perfect day on the water.
Powering the Anura S25 all-wheel drive amphibious system is their new Electric Over Hydraulic (EOH) motor. The EOH features a 48V, 28kW electric motor with 12.4kWh battery pack, which produces maximum drive torque of 3500nm and enables the Overlander to travel at 9km/hr on land.
With a hardtop and a spacious open-plan layout, the Overlander can be spec’d for game fishing, diving, or escaping to your favourite bay. The Overlander comes with an impressive range of standard features and can be optioned up with enclosed head (toilet), fridge/freezer, galley and full-length V-berth.
To accommodate the Anura system, Haines Hunter has replaced E-Glass with carbon fibre in some areas of the hull and transom – (E-glass fibre – also known as electrical glass, is the standard glass composition used in the construction of Haines Hunter boats for superior strength and stiffness).
The use of carbon fibre has added structural strength to the system while maintaining the same overall weight. This, combined with structural composite floors gives the same Haines Hunter ride.
Haines Hunter will start a national tour of New Zealand, including the Overlander. To register your interest, please contact your nearest Haines Hunter dealer.
