At HYD, our story is about more than history - it’s a legacy of experience and innovation. This is what gives us the expertise to blend tradition with forward-thinking design, just like the Arksen 85. A remarkable aluminium explorer yacht that combines resilience with comfort and sustainability, and as such is truly reflective of our own journey over the past five decades. We’re delighted to be featured in BOAT International Media, where the Arksen 85 is celebrated for its ability to adapt to a changing world. As the article notes, “Arksen is not just about yachts; it’s about creating vessels that stand the test of time.” And we couldn’t agree more; as when it comes to our own approach - every project factors in our 50 years experience whilst simultaneously paving the way for the future. Read the full article here and discover how heritage and sustainability come together in this groundbreaking design. https://lnkd.in/e_Uzq-FU

Our latest short film 'Engineered for Explorers' is out now! This captivating film chronicles Arksen's journey into the Overland space, showcasing the innovative design philosophy behind our pioneering products. Engineered for Explorers offers an in-depth look at Arksen's evolution from sea to land, focusing on creating vehicles tailored for explorers and overland adventurers. The film highlights how our team reimagines the adventuring experience, defines the Overland launch portfolio, and celebrates the remarkable collaborations that bring the Arksen vision to life. Adventurer and filmmaker Cameron Brunt was inspired by Arksen’s mission after a chance encounter. He closely followed the brand, capturing behind-the-scenes moments in our workshops, offices, and on the road with the Overland team. His involvement also sparked his own expedition along Australia's southeast coast, driving Arksen's Project Kakadu Land Rover Perentie.
