RAND 18 PICNIC

THIS BOAT IS NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION

Innovative and user-friendly, the Picnic 18 is one of the most popular electric day cruisers in the world today, providing an easy-to-use platform to enjoy your “plug-and-play” social experiences on the water.

This 18ft open day cruiser features a lightweight hull, intuitive easy handling and a class-leading degree of stability which drives its universal appeal for both experienced boaters and those customers with little or no previous boating experience.

Picnic 18 can seat up to 10 passengers in total around a central picnic-table that can easily be turned into a huge full-beam sunbed, perfect for a relaxing nap or drying in the sun after a refreshing dip in the water. Naturally, sun protection options including biminis and shade-sails are available across the range.

Outstanding hydro-dynamic design endows the Picnic 18 with efficient performance at speeds from 5 to 30 knots making it perfect for electric propulsion, or if you chose traditional gasoline propulsion it’s a great stylish runabout capable of handling waves with remarkable stability.

Like all RAND Boats, the intuitive design of Picnic 18 reflects Scandinavian aesthetics, while also delivering a sustainable approach to motorboat design with minimum environmental impact.

The philosophy behind these Scandinavian-designed day boats is to focus on only the core purpose of the vessels, keeping them simple. Owner and architect Carl Kai Rand pays much attention to detail, focusing on; functionality, sustainability, modern Danish design and high usability.

RAND ETHOS

RAND boats have a drive for change and a willingness to contribute to the sustainable mindset of powering motorboats.

Compared to similar boat productions, RAND Boats uses half of the material when producing boats, using foam kernel made of recycled plastic bottles and sustainable forestry wood. RAND Boats offers electric propulsion systems on all models and continues to work on improving and making these inboards and outboards even better.

WHY RAND

Environmentally friendly boating is the way of the future, and something Eyachts is continuously working towards adapting as we look to more sustainable solutions within our portfolio. 

RAND and Eyachts share in the belief that a sustainable approach to nature and our environment, the more freeing the experience at sea will be. Eyachts hope is to see more Australians adopting this Eco-boating mindset over the coming years.

Axopar 37 Customer testimonial Victoria

Axopar 37 Cabin Owner Robert loves “the internal cabin, the wide opening sunroof and sun lounge. The driving position is very comfortable… the Mercury Outboards run an economical cruising speed of 35kts and push the top speed to over 50kts,” adding. “We have a great relationship with Rowan and Peter… Eyachts are a great team, all staff are professional and courteous.”

Repeat Eyachts owner review

Previously owning a Greenline 40 Hybrid for 8 years the Flemings were looking to downsize and found the perfect fit, the Axopar 28 Cabin.

Jon and Anne are already in love with their Axopar, it fulfils all their needs with the enclosed helm and how quiet and peaceful it is with the doors closed and retractable roof open. Jon talked about how well it rode at 25knots and the ease of steering with the 300hp Mercury Outboard.

3 Time Eyachts Owner Review

Dave owned his 28 T-Top for only 6 short months before upgrading to a 37 Sun Top and now with a 28 Cabin, so I think it is safe to say he has a bit of experience with Axopars. We thought he would be the perfect person to talk to about the various models, likes, dislikes and the adventures they have taken him on.

Eyachts Review by Ian and Julianne

Axopar 28 owner Ian was extremely impressed by the Eyachts team and how helpful everyone was. “Well done Axopar and the eYachts team!”
“This boat is a winner for a (ok retired!) couple like us who want to have confidence in the manufacturer and dealer.”

Eyachts Team Review by John Bossi

Working with the team in Sydney was great… there were never problems, only solutions.
I found that across the board with everyone I was in contact with at Eyachts.
I’ve made a lot of purchases from dental equipment to motorcycles. I have never experienced a standard set so high across an organisation.
