ROAM 8 Adventure
ROAM 8 Sprint
A commitment to adventure
A commitment to adventure without sacrifice is at the heart of the ROAM 8’s design.
Unlike many open tenders in this size range, the ROAM 8 prioritises storage for a wide array of equipment, ensuring that your adventures are limited only by your imagination, not your vessel.
This makes it an ideal companion for superyachts, serving multiple roles from guest transport to a versatile platform for water sports and leisure activities.
One platform, many options
The ROAM 8 is available in two distinct models: the Adventure, featuring a retractable T-Top, and the Sprint, with a low-profile design that maximises space for seating and sunbathing. Both versions offer a self-draining open deck with premium Esthec Biscuit flooring and a custom engraved pattern.
The versatile seating arrangement includes two twin benches at mid-ship, a sunbed/hatch for engine bay access, a bench at the bow, and twin console seats.
Nautica F4 side storage for fenders and ropes ensures a clutter-free deck, while high-quality fittings such as Seasmart aluminium black anodised cleats and fuel ports add to the luxurious feel.
The ROAM 8 is powered by a Yanmar 8LV370 engine with stainless steel counter-rotating props, complemented by a LEWMAR 551067 bow thruster for enhanced manoeuvrability. This powerful propulsion system ensures swift guest transportation and excellent handling in all sea conditions.
The well-designed console features water and fuel level gauges, stainless steel flat switches, and a Simrad GO9 9″ GPS for navigation. A comprehensive lighting system, including underwater LEDs and courtesy lights, adds to the tender’s ambiance and functionality.
A tender built to last
The ROAM 8 has an adaptable length, ranging from 7 to 9 meters. The boat’s aluminium construction makes this flexibility possible, allowing customisation without new tooling. This adaptability ensures a perfect fit in a wide range of superyacht garages and compatibility with existing crane and davit systems.
Built to last, the ROAM 8 uses high-quality materials throughout. The hull is constructed from 5083 marine-grade aluminium alloy, with structural elements made from 5754 aluminium alloy. Instead of inflated tubes, the ROAM 8 features foam-filled collars (PEH30 foam coated with polyurea), enhancing durability and reliability.
Using the Awlgrip System with a PPG top coat in RAL 9010, the superyacht-grade paint finish ensures seamless visual integration with the mothership. This attention to detail extends to every aspect of the ROAM 8’s construction, meeting the exacting standards of superyacht owners.
