Technical Features
- Hull: CE-certified hand-laid fibreglass deep-V hull delivers a comfortable ride in light chop and moderate swells. The 160 cm beam provides predictable stability for four-person loads. A 95 kg hull weight keeps towing and launching manageable. Hull colour options: white, navy, grey, black, or custom RAL.
- Tubes: 42 cm diameter Hypalon tubes with 3 independent chambers. Hypalon offers superior resistance to UV, ozone, and abrasion — ideal for boats that remain inflated for extended seasons. Continuous grab lines and four lifting points included. Tube colours: black, grey, white, orange, or blue. Hypalon or PVC material options.
- Deck & Layout: Comprehensive layout with cushioned front and rear cabins, a centre console for standing/seated helm operation, and a stainless steel backrest for passenger support. The fibreglass anchor tray keeps ground tackle accessible yet organised. Self-bailing deck.
- Engine & Performance: Rated for 2-stroke or 4-stroke outboards up to 20 HP (14.91 KW). The RIB330C planes efficiently with a standard crew, and the centre console provides comfortable helm control in all positions. Estimated cruising speed 12–17 knots, top speed 18–24 knots depending on load, engine, and conditions. Fuel consumption approximately 4–7 L/h at cruising speed.
- Safety: Electric bilge pump comes standard for automatic water removal. Three independent chambers ensure reserve buoyancy. Non-slip deck surfaces, grab lines, and bow/stern lifting handles included.
- Manufacturing & Quality: Hand-laid fibreglass hull with vinylester resin for osmosis resistance. Tubes assembled using hot-air thermofusion welding for air-tight seams. Every hull undergoes a 48-hour quality soak test and a 24-hour pressure-hold test before delivery.
- Certifications: CE certified under EU Recreational Craft Directive 2013/53/EU (Category C — coastal). ISO 9001:2015 quality management system. Hull warranty 5 years, tube warranty 2 years, buoyancy warranty 5 years.
- Customisation: Custom hull graphics, tube colours, centre console layouts, seating configurations, and private-label branding available for OEM and fleet orders.
