ARCboat

Yes, you can purchase battery packs for your ARCboat. Contact us for more information.

Yes, our plugs completely unscrew from the boat. When completely unscrewed a small pair of arms stop the plug from becoming detached.

If the plug becomes completely detached then it can be reattached by gently bending the arms and reinserting then plug. Then screw it up as usual.

Yes, it is possible to order a new ARCboat plug. Contact us for more information.

If the physical dimensions fit, then we can connect your equipment on the ARCboat for you to use. However, please get in touch so we can discuss your requirement further.

The ARCboat can carry up to 25 kg. It is  important that loads are secured and well distributed throughout the vessel to maintain balance. You will also need to check the environmental conditions as waves reduce the potential payload weight.
