There was also a company by that name in the NE that made RIBS in the 90's but I think they went Bust.

The Predator catamaran was built by a SA company called Stingray.

The Predator range Jdog is probably looking at are built in Italy. Very good build quality like a lot of Italian boats but I don't know about the ride quality.

MRL are the importers and they have an office in Southampton Dry Stack
