<p>Monohull boats are vessels with just one hull, as the name itself suggests. They can be monohull <a href="https://theboatdb.com/boats/type/sail">sailboats</a> or <a href="https://theboatdb.com/boats/type/power">powerboats</a>, which means they can be powered by an engine or by the wind. In addition, monohull boats can have a high level of luxury on board and can therefore be referred to as monohull yachts. At TheBoatDB you can look into monohull boats and explore their features. In addition, you can filter your search through monohull sailboat manufacturers and explore all models available on our site. Compare all models on our website from the comfort of your home.</p>

Sail

<p>Space, both stowage and deck, are some of the first impressions when boarding the craft. It certainly has its fair share of both. While all centre console boats offer plenty of deck space, Sensation Boats have provided a layout that will cater for almost any eventuality. Starting in the bow there is an easily accessible anchor hatch just forward of the U-shaped bow seats which have stowage space cleverly positioned below them.</p><p>Moving aft, there is another comfortable seat just in front of the centre console above the fuel hatch. The console itself is well designed with plenty of space for gauges and sounders, as well as an area above the windscreen suitable for mounting the radio, plus a sound system head unit of your choice. The console area is protected by a solid, light-weight composite roof which is supported on a robust, aluminium frame.</p><p>On the test boat, outrigger supports were mounted on top of the T-top roof, together with the necessary radio antennas. There is another large hatch underneath the console offering added storage for the necessary items when out on a fishing trip or simply cruising with friends and family.</p><p>Back-to-back with the skipper’s seat is another bench seat above yet another storage hatch that offers additional packing<br>space particularly for important items such as cameras bags and other expensive items.</p><p>Access to the below-deck fish hatch is immediately aft of this seat and it is situated within easy reach when you’re out on the<br>water, and, hopefully when the fish are biting! The false transom does not extend the full width of the boat; it is lower on each side allowing for water to flow easily over the stern should the boat be swamped during a surf launch.</p><p>The raised centre section holds a live bait well with Luna tubes either side and the convenient battery hatch underneath.</p><p>There are plenty of rod and cup holders in convenient locations throughout the craft to offer all those in attendance a safe haven for their all-important beverages of choice.</p><p>While the standard layout is suitable for most applications, should you have specific requirements, Sensation Boats are able to customise a boat suited to your particular style of fishing or chartering. Just ask the competent staff at Sensation Boats and they’ll surely oblige by building you the boat of your dreams.</p>

<p>Powerboats are vessels with an onboard or outboard engine that powers them and allows them to gain speed and move on the water in a way that feels like it is just sliding on the surface. As such, they are also known as speedboats. Learn more about powerboats and their speed on TheBoatDB. Pick a model and check out its maximum velocity, <a href="https://theboatdb.com/maker">manufacturer</a>, whether it is an outboard motorboat or inboard one, and other features and specifications on our online database.

<h2>Embark on the PRO 500 Voyage: An Inflatable Behemoth</h2><p>Heave to and behold the Stryker PRO 500, a leviathan among inflatables, boasting unparalleled allegiance to robustness thanks to its 1.8mm thick protective layer, coined the Stryker Shield®, shielding its underbelly. Crafted from premium German Mehler PVC, this marine marvel is pieced together with the avant-garde thermowelding technique - a testament to our commitment to durability and excellence on the high seas.</p><h3>Cutting-Edge Craftsmanship and Materials:</h3><p>Our bespoke PRO line proudly sports seven Scotty® bases pre-fitted during its construction phase, offering you a seamless plug-and-play experience with a flotilla of 30 separate Scotty® accouterments for your angling quests.</p><p>The PRO 500 doesn’t just stay afloat; it commands the waters with a formidable 20” heavy-duty single-piece reinforced aluminum transom. This innovation eliminates the Achilles' heel of inflatable crafts - the traditional wood and plastic tri-partite transom, propelling the Stryker PRO 500 as the vessel of choice for intrepid adventurers and large crews alike.</p><h3>Specs and Accessories:</h3><p>The vessel supports a cohort of up to 14 souls or 4155lbs, stabilized on a robust aluminum flooring system, complemented with side stringers. When it comes to power, the PRO 500 is matched with 30-50HP long shaft prop outboards or a 35-40HP JET motor for those who dare to skim the shallows.</p><p>Included in your kit is a plethora of maritime essentials: military-grade lifelines, heavy-duty D-ring systems, an array of bags for every component, and bonus features including a sun shade bimini top and fishing rod holders. Each Stryker PRO 500 is stowed in two bags, ensuring your voyage is as streamlined as your vessel.</p><p>The PRO 500 mates seamlessly with our custom Road Runner Stryker Boat Trailer and a myriad of console options, donning the sleek Storm Grey hue.</p>

<h2>Rigid Inflatable Boat: Evolution and Versatility in Marine Design</h2><p>The rigid inflatable boat (RIB), also known as the rigid-hull inflatable boat or rigid-hulled inflatable boat (RHIB), is a distinctive class of watercraft that intertwines the resilience and performance of a rigid hull with the safety and buoyancy of inflatable tubes. RIBs, recognized for their sturdiness, seaworthiness, and high capacity, offer a lightweight solution that does not compromise speed or performance.</p><h3>Historical Journey</h3><p>Devised by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution in the mid 1960s, the RIB was conceived to minimize the wear-and-tear experienced by fully inflatable boats. The earliest models, with rigid hulls crafted from plywood, paved the way for today's more advanced constructions.</p><h3>Galvanizing Safety and Rescue Operations</h3><p>The versatility and performance of the RIB quickly found applications in lifesaving and rescue operations. With abundant buoyancy and unparalleled stability, these vessels have assured safety on water for over half a century.</p>
