Description

The Phantom 280 was conceived to complete our collection of RIBs in the 7.5 to 10 meter range, with an innovative, comfortable and uncompromising boat. This new model did not evolve however from the former Smeralda 270T, but was thought out and designed from scratch, putting together all the experience acquired over many years of building our entire range of RIBs. The Phantom 280 is in fact one of the most modern and versatile models of Sea Water’s entire production and also one of the newest in our line up. It excels as a pleasure boat, but also as an elegant and efficient tender and chase-boat for yachts and it can guarantee performance, stability and safety of the highest standards, just like all other Sea Water RIBs. This versatility is the result of a well-designed deck layout, which can provide great room on board and space to move around for passengers, assuring at the same time ample seating and comfort and safety at all times. A really spacious bow locker with a comfortable sun pad. An essential and elegant central steering helm, which offers great overhead protection with the newly designed Phantom style T top (Optional), used on the Phantom 300 model. A standing position driver’s seat with a simple and yet elegant design, without any excesses, but it’s the stern of the boat, without doubt, where the Phantom 280 has its main point of strength: a large sunning bed with three spacious underlying lockers, which together with a central piston table also provides a living area where one can eat a meal or have drinks or just relax with friends in a spacious and comfortable environment, further enhanced by the shade and protection offered by a large and practical, optional stern sun-cover. The features and fittings on a model of this category and of such class are obviously top of the range: anchor with electric winch, shower, extensive use of 40 mm stainless steel tubing for the various interior grab-rails, the roll-bar/windshield group, the driver’s seat and the stern and bow mooring poles. The fuel reserve is very generous and sufficient to provide outstanding autonomy. Performance is remarkable and adrenaline pumping even with average output engine configurations and handling, safety and stability are, as always on all Sea Water RIBs, of the highest possible level. All that’s left to do is to choose the colour scheme you prefer to make this RIB the Sea Water of your dreams. A unique RIB. Your Phantom 280.
