Arksen 85 on technical sea trials

In this short video you can see the Arksen 85 being put through her paces on recent technical sea trials in the Solent. While this vessel will be leaving soon with her owner, another 85 is in build and yard tours can be arranged.

Graceful, clean, and strong going through the water. Love the flat wake coming off the stern. Well done Arksen! Carl, Homer Alaska.

you said it all

The vessel I dream about! People are correct in stating ascetically it does share a similar form factor as Steve Dashews FPB’s, and I believe this form factor will emerge when seeking certain performance characteristics. Arksen in my opinion has moved in a very exciting and unique direction, even in regards to the form, function and capabilities that are not shared by the FPB’s. Arksen has taken their vessel to another level and I cannot wait to see the interior.

So epic!!!

These remind me of Steve Dashew’s FPB designs.

That's because they are nearly a direct copy without any attribution to Steve and Linda's designs. Half rate imitations with no soul

@@RedhotJBoy87 Hulls are completely different. Steve commented on that just after they shuttered the business.

Another Arksen Lady of the Sea. She graceful, love the colour of her hull, and she cuts cleanly through the water. Like to have seen how she handles a rougher sea, well i should imagine. Will we get a tour of her cabins, salon ect ?? Soon ??

Can’t wait to see in side

Looks more like a lake trial...

I Wish!

seriously, shell out $5,000 for your own perfectly tailored sound you can use forever & build up your aural brand

[@VictoriaAlfredSmythe]

very nice, but please ditch the cheesy music & shell out to a real musician for a real theme. i hope cheesy music doesn't equate to cheap build.
