The SnakeHead T20 is a speedboat in Just Cause 2.

Appearance

The SnakeHead is the most common of the three speedboats in Panau. It's a catamaran-hulled racing boat with a big engine and separate driver and passenger seats. It always appears with a single red stripe running down the length of its topside. Unlike the Frisco Catshark S-38, the engine is concealed, similar to modern-day powerboats.

It can spawn in purple, red, greyish white, orange and light green, the same colors as many sports cars in the game.

It resembles the real-world American Offshore 3100.

Performance

The SnakeHead is one of the fastest boats in Panauan waters. Its top speed, acceleration and handling are 5 points greater than the Catshark's. Most likely due to its length, it is not as responsive as either the MTA Powerrun 77 or the Catshark. Unfortunately, the armor drops by 15 points compared to the Catshark; this may possibly be due to the possibly lightweight construction of the boat. This has the consequence of not only making the Snakehead easy to destroy by enemy fire but also means that collision damage will destroy it rather quickly, which can make it difficult to perform several Stunts in the same boat.

Locations

The Snakehead can be found in regular marine traffic quite commonly. Unfortunately, civilians tend to end up beaching this boat, often before it can be acquired. It spawns in several places.

• At the dock at Karl Blaine's Residence.
• It's provided for 4 of the 7 boat Races.
• Two are parked at the Unnamed settlement at X:26460; Y:28800. These are red-marked for some reason.
• The midsection of the Sawah river and Sawah lake.

Trivia

• Despite it was made by a company called Snakehead, it has a sign saying "Wilford" on the rear of the boat (the same as in Stinger Dunebug 84). It may be the name of the company that made the engine.
• If you approach this vehicle from the back-right while pressing 'E' repeatedly, Rico will Grapple into the passenger seat on the right. This animation is very rare among vehicles. Upon entering the passenger seat, like with all ground vehicles, he will immediately slide into the driver's seat. See also: Seating.
• The one at Karl Blaine's Residence was glitched at one point, being able to sustain very fast crashes. However, that was fixed.
• There are seven things with the name "Snakehead", but it is not known if this boat references any of them. Disambiguation on Wikipedia.

It doesn't exclusively spawn in this color scheme.

The AI in Just Cause 2 is not perfect. In this case, a civilian driving this vehicle somewhere within the Pelaut Archipelago somehow drove this boat onto land, with the boat impossible to re-enter water again without intervention by Rico. Rico is piloting a AH-33 Topachula in this screenshot.
