Rigid Inflatable Boats (RIB)

RIBs, sometimes known as rigid inflatable boats, rigid hull inflatable boats, or RHIBs, are powerboats fitted with inflatable collars or tubes. As well as excellent fendering, this makes RIBs almost unsinkable and suitable for use in all sorts of conditions.

RIBs are some of the most versatile boats available and are used as rescue boats, patrol boats by the military, work boats, race boats, tenders to yachts and superyachts, and as general purpose all round cruising boats by families around the world.
