Rigid Inflatable Boats (RIBs) are light-weight, high performance boats constructed with a solid hull, and inflatable tubes around the outer edge.
The addition of inflatable tubes to the solid hull increases the shock-absorbing qualities of the vessel, giving it a hull that can essentially change shape under the impact of waves.
This design makes RIBs incredibly versatile, stable, seaworthy and durable boats.
