2024 Sea Water PHANTOM 500

The Sea Water Phantom 500 is a substantial 49-foot rigid inflatable combining open-water capability with premium comfort. Twin Mercury engines delivering 1,200 horsepower push the hull to 45 knots, with a cruising speed of 30 knots. The fiberglass construction supports a shallow draft of approximately 0.7 meters, making it well-suited to coastal anchorages and sheltered waters. Fuel capacity reaches 1,200 to 1,440 liters depending on configuration, providing genuine range for extended navigation.

The broad beam of nearly 15 feet and generous length create an expansive upper deck and cockpit. A hard-top canopy, comfortable salon with seating, sun lounge, aft platform, and substantial stowage throughout make the boat equally at home entertaining groups or operating as a dedicated day boat. The single cabin and head provide basic overnight capability when needed.

Joystick control simplifies maneuvering in tight spaces. The moderate draft and semi-rigid hull design balance the stability and space of a larger vessel with the handling ease of a RIB, making this an adaptable platform for private cruising, charter work, passenger transfers, or professional marine services.
