Sea Jay launches the Striker

Sea Jay has just released its “Plate Xtreme” console boat, the 5.6m Striker.

Sea Jay says differences between this model and the recently released 5.6m Preda-King is that the centre console incorporates the sleek, sweeping gunwale style as found on the brand's 6.8m hulls, as well as two presses in the side alloy sheets for style and rigidity.

The console has been made smaller and positioned towards the stern to maximise deck space and allow for a huge fishing platform or simply an area to roll out the swag for an overnight trip. In the step up floor, not one but two underfloor dry storage cavities can be found with one cavity large enough to stow away a 120L ice box.

Seating comes in the form of two part upholstered seats on removable pedestals. A 200L fuel tank has been squeezed under the floor and as in all Plate Xtreme models, the tank is housed in a separate cavity to stop fuel (or fumes) escaping into the bilge in the event of spillage.
