The 2023 Northstar Orion 8 is a 26-foot composite RIB built as a luxury cruising tender and day boat. Powered by a single 300 hp Yamaha gasoline engine, it combines the Evo-2 Stepped Hull design with a Class B offshore rating, delivering stability and high-speed performance in a refined package that follows Northstar's tradition of understated design.
The layout includes a single head and open cockpit seating with twin flip-up seats. Storage is integrated throughout with large compartments, an acrylic glove box fitted with USB charging, and a 36-liter cooler. A foldable table accommodates casual dining and entertaining.
Standard equipment spans Silvertex marine upholstery, Hypalon tubes, a hydraulic steering system, automatic bilge pumps, tempered glass windshield, a swim platform with stainless steel ladder, telescopic cleats, and stainless steel console and aft seat grab handles. Navigation and basic lighting are included in the electrical plant.
