New fully electric ProtectorE 310 Chase. Combining a proven, ultra-capable hull with Naut’s high-performance electric propulsion, it delivers 300hp of continuous power with virtually no noise or emissions.
The partnership will see Protector’s Chase 330 centre console RIBs supporting SailGP’s international race teams.
Two new partners, two key markets, one stronger European presence for Protector Boats.
Protector Boats is significantly advancing its customisation capability for the superyacht sector, responding to a fundamental shift in how chase boats and tenders are specified, deployed and relied upon by owners and captains.
Originally designed for commercial and military use, including police, pilot, and naval applications, Protector RIBs are over-engineered by recreational standards. Their robust build and precise handling have long been admired by those who work on the water daily. Now, that same DNA is proving invaluable in the luxury yachting sector.
Protector Boats has introduced a fully customised Protector Targa 380, designed as a multipurpose superyacht tender for a discerning owner.
Across the global maritime sector, enforcement and operational agencies are rethinking how they specify their craft – particularly the high-performance rigid inflatable boats (RIBs) in their fleets.
Britain’s biggest festival of boating will be held at Southampton’s Mayflower Park 16-25 September 2022.
Following component and engine delays our first two boats are well underway and near completion in their fitting-out bays. PB Europe’s first Protector hull, a 330 Chase, has been overtaken by our MkIII 380 Targa which will be heading to sea-trials before the end of May.
