Yup, this is the crux of the matter. Actually I didn't understand up to when everything was fine, because the OP said that he "always had intake...
Which models? I'm not very familiar with Predators, but I've seen chillers even in their smaller Manhattans, already back in the days of the old...
Interesting. All European boats I can think of are either equipped with self contained units, usually up to 40 feet or so, or chiller(s)+fan coils...

I can't remember to have ever seen rod holders at the bow, either. If that's what they are...? Beautiful boat, anyhow. If someone would have said...
