Unlimited Opportunities

The Predator€™s multiple mounting plates let you add all the greatest accessories.  We have set ours up with a Lowrance fish finder with the transducer siliconed into the hull, but the Hummingbird transducer will fit the scuppers mount.

We are using Railblaza to fit extra fishing rod holders and dive flags.

We are using Rob Fort Series to keep our catch cool, protect our fish finder, diver and rods with covers, leashes and anchor systems.
