Captain Don McGee founded SeaVee Boats in 1974. Since then, the Miami-based company has earned a reputation for building custom, high quality, good riding, center console sport fishers. That hasn’t changed since Ariel Pared, Moises Rodriguez, and Ralph Torres bought the company in the 1990s. And their new flagship, the SeaVee 450z, might just be the angler’s ultimate sport fisher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SeaVee 450z<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The SeaVee 450z offers a sportfishing yacht’s performance, comfort, and tech, with the open design and functionality only a center console can offer. With a 45′ LOA and 12’6″ beam, the SeaVee 450z is the largest center console design in the company’s lineup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like all SeaVees, the 450z is custom-built to suit each owner’s fishing and boating lifestyle. Whether you need a luxurious island hopper or a competitive sportfishing platform, this boat can accommodate you and all your mates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SeaVee 450z is a powerhouse. It can be rigged with triple or quad outboards. Its quad outboard configuration and extra heavy-duty transom can accommodate as much power as you want, well over 2,000 hp<\/a>. With quad Mercury Racing 450r engines, the 450z has a top speed approaching 70 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n

The spacious aft deck was built for catching fish and having fun. It features four live wells and two 100-gallon (378 liters) fish boxes. There’s a comfy rear-facing mezzanine bench seat and a huge tackle storage area. Integrated doors on one or both sides (you decide) allow easy access to the water or the dock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bow has a 150-gallon (567 liters) fish box with overboard drainage and optional freezer plates. You’ll also find another live well and two integrated rod storage bays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The front upholstered lounge seat sits low enough to feel secure and not obstruct the view from the console. It offers good back support, raised edges to keep you in your seat, and integrated armrests that fold up and out of the way. <\/p>\n\n\n

SeaVee 450z Specs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The SeaVee 450z was designed with speed, maneuverability, and safety in mind. It’s designed for triple or quad outboards. When outfitted with quad Mercury Racing 450Rs, its top speed nears 70 knots. With quad 400s, it’s in the upper 50s, depending on sea conditions and load. It’ll be fun to see what this boat can do with the Mercury 600HP V12<\/a>s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 450z’s stepped hull gives you higher speeds and better fuel efficiency. Its 778-gallon (3000 liters) fuel capacity means you get well over 500 nautical miles of travel range. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The onboard diesel generator has a generous 48-gallon (180 liters) fuel capacity. Integrated LED navigation lights, a bow floodlight bar, and dual aft floodlights keep the darkness at bay.<\/p>\n\n\n
