The Predator Super V Sports Boat
The Superb Sports/Ski Boat from Predator Boats
Designed with Safety at its Heart
Small Boat Safety
Just like the Predator 165, the Predator Super V 150 has been developed to be one of the safest boats in its class. With that objective, "unsinkable" just wasn't good enough.
"A boat can be called "unsinkable" even if its stern is held under water by its outboard motor and its bows are pointing up at the sky like a rocket! What help is that to you if you are five miles offshore and alone in a bitterly cold sea?"
This can't happen with the Predator Super V. The "lifering" of buoyancy built into the hull of the Super V, which is additional to the usual under-floor buoyancy chamber, means that swamping is not the danger that it is with so many other small boats.
Not only that, but as with the Predator 165, ALL the buoyancy tanks of the Predator Super V are FULLY foam-filled, unlike many of the other fishing boats currently on the market which have buoyancy tanks that are only partly filled with foam.
In addition, the foam we use at Predator Boats is a closed cell foam, which means that the individual air cells are closed and sealed so that they will not and cannot absorb water, even if fully submerged without any surrounding protection.
The effect of these measures is that even if a buoyancy tank on the Predator Super V is punctured, it will still do its job and the boat will still float level and protect its crew!
