Does anyone have any more info them? Is the 2010 definitely the only tiller version? What size are the rod lockers? What's the differece between IPS and IPS 11?

Looks like the 2010 is the only tiller version of the Predator, but the Pro Guide has tiller versions in 16, 17, 18, and 20 foot models.
The difference in IPS and IPS II hulls is the strakes on the hull. The IPS II will ride a little higher in the water at cruising speeds.
A number of my friends ran the Pro Guide last year, and the Predator this year. All have spoken high of the both boats, and like some of the Predator features for different reasons. Some like the Predator better for the multi species fishing - the high casting deck. Some like the front livewell for both equalizing weight distribution left to right in the front, and aiding rough water ride. All seem to like the increased storage.
Sorry I don't know the rod length storage capacity.
Not sure what info your looking for. I was in one with a 200 Verado this past summer, it was pretty fun....
