SYDNEY BOAT SHOW: Luxury inflatables from SACS

Sleek, semi-custom and potently Italian, the SACS range of rigid inflatable boats (RIBs) is set to turn heads with their sleek styling and promise of exciting performance at this year’s Sydney International Boat Show.

With a distinctly Italian emphasis on precision construction, performance, polished good looks and above all, emotion, SACS Marine has established its range of RIBS as the premium choice for connoisseurs.

The SACS’ philosophy is that "the RIB is no longer a mere means of transport but becomes the ful?lment of a dream and a way of asserting one’s personality."

That aim is backed up by a huge investment in R&D and high-tech production.

In its state-of-the-art facilities in Italy, SACS employs a team of designers and engineers, working to the concepts of accomplished designer, Christian Grande, with the latest CAD/CAM technology and milling/cutting machine.

The design team strives to create an entirely new generation of Rigid Inflatable Boats, with high levels of customisation for its discerning clientele.

A PASSIONATE IMPORTER
Represented in Australia by SACS Marine Australia, the SACS range will soon grace local waterways, positioned as the versatile, luxury tender and dayboat that offers exceptional styling and superior performance.

SACS Marine Australia representative, Richard Gazal, discovered the brand in his own quest to source a RIB that offered something more.

"We were looking for a tender that suited the modern styling of our new Sunseeker yacht and found the SACS range to be the only RIBS we felt matched the unique style and finish of our Sunseeker," Gazal says.

"After experiencing the premium finish and outstanding performance of the SACS RIB, we decided to partner with SACS Marine and offer a broader range to Australian boat buyers.

"The SACS range offers something different for those looking for a more stylish, performance based rigid inflatable."

The SACS line of RIBS ranges from 4.5 to 19 metres and is characterised by quality materials, sleek styling, large floor-space and added features that equate to an extremely stable, quiet and dry ride.

A THREE RIB RANGE
There are three core product lines: Individual Class, Sport Class and Top Class.

Sure to impress, the SACS Sport Class S780 and Top Class Strider 8, Strider 10 and Strider 13 will make their national debut at the Sydney International Boat Show where they will present a commanding sight on-water beside the yachts they complement.

From the S780, with its minimal elegance, teak decks and a sporty console at its heart, to the spacious Strider 13 Open which boasts cockpit, sundeck, swim platform, canopy, kitchenette, meals area and even a bed and head below deck, as well as a driving station and seats which are ergonomic and aesthetic, there is a model for every preference and palette.
