I have a 5.5m zodiac pro 550 open, with a 90 hp jhonson. If the right price was offered would be quite happy to sell.

Nice the zodiac are very good sea boats as long as you get the correct seats. (Leaning post or jockey seats). Also the 24 degree hull is a very good at sea.

Collected it earlier in the day - really pleased, it's in fantastic condition.
It's currently fitted with a bench seat, which will be fine for casual coastal cruising in good weather, however there is enough room to fit a jockey console on front of the bench if we change our minds.

Looking forward to some great cruises!

Good luck with selling your boat :-)

Let us see how comfy your bench is when you come to play out in the channel in the big waves.

Yer the bench seats are a bit of a pain in the rough stuff, I have a pro 550 open and it has the captin type seats and i might change them for jockey seats. If you do get jockey seats tell me where you get them from because i might get them aswell

The Zodiacs are excellent sea boats. I used to have the Pro 7 Man. The hull deadrise is only 22 degrees on the Pro 9-Man (4.7m), now renamed Zodiac Pro 500, although it increases to 24 degrees on the Open Pro 550.
