This Hydra-Sports Customs boat came to Next Level for a huge upgrade to the entire boat. We’ve added all new upholstery to the seats, and along the gunwales with custom stitching. A custom acrylic dash was made to flush mount the electronics like the Garmin Chartplotters and JL Audio radio unit. Next Level is one of the only custom boat aftermarket fabricators that are flush mounting the JL Audio receiver and other electronics.  We also installed BocaTech Switches along with an Etching of Hydra-Sports logo with backlit lighting. This customer also got custom CNC cut SeaDek® cushioning and flooring in the boat.

Flooring and Upholstery

The boat was equipped with SeaDek® marine flooring everywhere in color combo Mocha over Black. The main flooring is 6mm thick with the helm pad at 13mm thick.

Audio

When it comes to sound we went with the best, JL Audio – a superior stereo for boats, 6 amps in a custom enclosure then wrapped to match the new seats. 4 tower speakers with covers, 4 T-top coaxial down-firing speakers, two 12” subwoofers, two 10” subwoofers, six outdoor side mounted speakers, four below deck JL coaxial speakers. We installed LED lights to add to the effect and painted the 3 engines and made custom OEM decals.

FLIR M232 Camera

The M232 pan and tilt camera is one of FLIR’s smallest and affordable marine thermal cameras. Featuring a resolution of 320 × 240, the M232 improves safety by revealing vessels and obstacles at night. Enjoy 360 degree viewing while underway. Combine the M232 with a Raymarine Axiom MFD and take advantage of FLIR ClearCruise™ intelligent thermal analytics. ClearCruise™ provides audible and visual alerts when “non-water” objects such as boats, obstacles, ornavigation markers—appear in the scene. This enhances boaters’ overall situational awareness, both day and night.

Navigation

A FLIR thermal and night vision camera and GPS radar was installed to the T-Top then repainted black to give a sleek appearance that matched the engines we repainted and added new decals to.
