What is Hydratrek?
Hydratrek, formerly PFM Manufacturing, Inc., is a pioneer in the development and production of heavy-duty, low-impact, commercial-grade amphibious all-terrain vehicles.

In 2005, the product line was rebranded as Remote Access Vehicles (RAVs) to better reflect their advanced capabilities. The latest iterations feature enhanced durability, increased cargo capacity, and improved water propulsion systems.
