Water ballast

Adapt easily to changing conditions

Known for their lightweight performance, speed, agility and dry ride, Salthouse Coach Boats can now be transformed into a more stable platform when conditions get tough. Simply add up to 170kg of water ballast to the integrated tank positioned at the lowest point of the hull for greater stability and improved handling in rough seas.

The system is designed to be simple, reliable and easy to maintain. With no hidden mechanical components, it delivers dependable performance season after season.
