Description
Crafted by Scorpion RIBs in Lymington, now part of Twisted Marine, this Serket 8.1 reflects the very best of British performance boatbuilding. Designed around a legendary deep-V hull, every detail has been considered to deliver balance, control and refinement on the water.
Powered by a Honda 250hp V6, the Serket reaches around 45 knots with effortless composure. The ride is solid and predictable, with the confidence and precision that Scorpion hulls are known for.
At 13 years old, this example presents superbly. The hull remains fair and clean, the tubes are immaculate, and the upholstery is fresh with no signs of age. It’s a true testament to the quality of the original build.
Finished with military grey Orca Hypalon tubes, Silvertex upholstery and polished stainless detailing, the Serket 8.1 combines understated style with genuine capability. It’s a boat that has been built to perform, engineered to last, and finished to impress.
