The "best basement in the business" is more than a claim. It's an endorsement from tournament champions and everyday fishermen. Your Hydra-Sports' uncompromising design and engineering starts with strength, and flows through to evenly distributed power with a solid, poured-ceramic transom that is integrated with precision into a full-length, finished fiberglass stringer system. Kevlar® reinforcement adds durability. Steel reinforced hoses, Dynaplate® electronics protection and high-grade wiring run through dry rigging chases mean the Vector Series can take on the elements and always provide a safe, solid and reliable platform for serious fishermen to perform their best.
Kevlar reinforced hull: Kevlar® stops bullets. In the Vector Series™, it makes a speeding bullet safer and more durable. Added to the rigid keel from stem to stern, and in the stringer system of the 2200VX and 2200CC, Kevlar® has twice the strength of conventional fiberglass, and is pound for pound three times the tensile strength of steel.
Evenly distributed power: How do our engineers ensure efficient and even distribution of backend power from the engines into the hull? It starts with a poured ceramic transom that provides a solid, unbending platform for power to unleash itself through the integrated stringer system and the Deep-V hull.
Steel reinforcement and double-clamped durability: Hydra-Sports™ strength finds its way into every component, accessory and detail - including the rubber hosing. Hoses are steel reinforced and double clamped for added strength and security - not because they have to be, but because serious fishermen expect them to be.
Dynaplate® protection: Hydra-Sports is engineered not just to withstand the elements, but to excel in them. Thru-hulls and electronics are Dynaplate® grounded. Wiring is routed through raised, dry rigging chases to keep electronics safe - along with you and your crew.
A solid fit: Methacrylate structural adhesive holds skyscrapers and fighter jets together. We use it to bond the solid backbone of our boats to the hull.
A quiet ride: Packed with foam, the Integrated Structural Grid System is stronger, quieter and more durable.
Perfect balance: We use premium gelcoats, hand laminated woven roving and pattern-cut biaxial fabrics to ensure optimum lateral balance and strength.
Durable materials: Wood takes a beating from sun, salt and surf. Our longer lasting all-composite construction, including foam filled stringers, and stainless steel components don't.
A stronger front-end: An integrated forward bulkhead strengthens and stiffens bow area.
Easy wiring: Four-inch wiring chases allow the easy addition of electronics and protect wiring from chafing or abrasion.
A dry basement: Strategically placed drains help ensure water is not trapped in bilge areas.
