Overview
“In a world of transition, Arksen is a statement of intent. To go a different way…”
The Arksen Custom 10.8 is a demonstration of exactly that philosophy. A premium RIB created to challenge expectations within the sector through it's design, engineering, and attention to detail. Built as a showcase for the Arksen Custom Projects Team, the 10.8 proves her genuine offshore capability, resulting in a vessel that feels equally at home exploring remote coastlines or operating as an elegant superyacht chase boat.
Exterior
The exterior styling of the Arksen Custom 10.8 is modern, purposeful, and instantly recognisable, finished with a light grey topside, white hull, Black Carbon ORCA Hypalon tubes, and custom Esthec decking featuring Arksen’s signature hexagonal motif.
The layout is designed with multiple social spaces in mind including forward sunpads, additional seating ahead of the console, and a spacious aft u-shaped lounge with convertible sunbed arrangement. A premium wet bar, generous storage throughout, and a sleek T-Top with integrated lighting complete a deck layout perfectly suited to entertaining and adventure alike.
Interior
The interior finish of the 10.8 brings a level rarely found in this category. The console houses a beautifully finished WC compartment with freshwater facilities, while the upholstery, Esthec finishes, and custom detailing create a clean and contemporary atmosphere throughout.
At the helm, heated shock-mitigating seats for both pilot and co-pilot ensure exceptional comfort underway, reinforcing the balance between luxury and capability that defines the Arksen brand.
Performance & Tech
Built around a proven deep-V stepped hull with commercial and defence pedigree, the Arksen Custom 10.8 delivers confident handling and impressive offshore performance in all conditions.
Twin Suzuki DF325A outboards provide a combined 650HP, paired with Suzuki Precision Controls, Optimus 360 joystick steering, and Humphree ride control systems for smooth and intuitive operation.
The helm is centred around a 19” Raymarine Axiom XL display with fully integrated radar, AIS, VHF, YachtSense digital switching, and augmented reality navigation technology, creating a helm experience that feels modern, capable, and adventure ready.
