2007 Sea Blade Navatek Sled (RIB)

This 24-foot Sea Blade Navatek is a rigid inflatable with a distinctive deep-V hull design and rising sheer-line. The fiberglass construction features a flared bow, double transverse hull steps, hard chines, and lifting strakes engineered to minimize hull slamming forces in rough conditions. Power comes from twin Mercury 300 hp outboards, delivering a top speed of 40 knots and cruising speed of 30 knots.

The open layout suits active use—touring, snorkeling, and sightseeing. There are no cabins or enclosed heads; this is a day-boat designed for exposed-water operation. The hull design prioritizes passenger comfort and vessel control in choppy seas through its stepped geometry and flared bow configuration.

The boat has years of operational history running charter services along the Kona Coast, with a track record of regular commercial use.
