Protector 310 Targa Interesting Walkthrough
Host Steve Bull sea trials the Protector 310 Targa across the beautiful Strait of Georgia in British Columbia.
The 310 Targa combines offshore capability with the comfort and versatility expected from a modern recreational RIB.
Its deep-V hull and large inflatable collar are designed to provide stability, buoyancy and softer landings in rough conditions.
With up to 900 horsepower available, the boat is equipped for fast passages while maintaining control at higher speeds.
Protector reports a top speed of 52 knots.
The 310 Targa has also served as an America’s Cup chase boat.
Its layout supports activities including offshore cruising, fishing, diving and recreational use in demanding sea conditions.
