Includes a rigid fibreglass hull but is still lightweight enough to be carryable and not to put too much stress on your davits. The tubes are made from 1100 Decitex PVC and use thermobonded seams.

Last but not least a very useful 5 year warranty.

RIB dinghies often have an outboard engine and are generally from 2.5 long all the way up to 18 metres long!

RIBS are usually designed to be stable and safe meaning they are  very good safety boats, tenders and pleasure craft. Due to their soft nature they can withstand low speed impacts and are great for commercial and leisure use. The RNLI is an organisation which uses many rigid inflatable dinghies.
