Hi,

Predator Powerboats will be unveiling their newest creation and model the C306.

The C306 utilizes Jim Lee Aerospace glass on its windshield for optimum high performance boating.

The particular model that will be unveiled at the show is an I/O model measuring at 30' x 8.5'

Hope to see you at the Predator booth L1730

Is it the same hull that Doug Wright designed and AMT produced back in the very early 2000s? Or is it an all new boat?

.

there has been many small changes and trials on the bottom, but the bottom is overall the same from when DW has designed it originally.

a customer out West is able to achieve 106MPH with a pair of 300XS so the bottom is pretty quick I think for an ocean-abled 30 foot cat.

would luv to see a pair of 400R on a widened C30 hull someday soon.

Will there be an outboard canopy cat there??

not this time. Arnaldo is trying to promote the wrap windshield models on the 30 foot and 25 foot cat models at this year's show...which is why he's heavily discounting those models.

for the 2017 Miami show he's planning to build a wide-body 30 footer to see how much faster the 30 foot Predators can go. They will be in both outboard and I/O power

I think DiamondMarine has a Predator 30 Canopy in the shop somewhere...but not sure. It would be cool to see a Canopy wide-body...with cooling and heating if you like to extend your boating season

I know that canopy boats are tough to get into & out of. Maybe these type doors can be outfitted on the canopy cat, where the canopy roof is part of the doors

Noli, thanks again for your hospitality and good luck with that beautiful Predator, that thing came out great. That is far and away the nicest windshield I've seen, even on boats costing three times as much. I sure would like to see one of these with a pair of those 650 hp LS motors that GM brought to the toy show !! Thanks
