RIB580B

The RIB580B distinguishes itself with larger 58 cm diameter tubes — 6 cm wider than the standard 580A — offering significantly enhanced buoyancy and a higher freeboard for operators tackling more demanding sea states. Powered by outboard engines up to 115 HP with an 8-person, 1,200 kg payload capacity and a 90 L built-in fuel tank, this 5.8-metre RIB is equally at home on commercial charter runs, offshore patrol duties, or weekend deep-sea fishing expeditions where stability in rough conditions is paramount.

Technical Features

• Hull: CE-certified hand-laid fibreglass deep-V hull with a 2.38 m beam and heavy-duty offshore construction. At 450 kg, the hull provides a solid, confident platform in rough seas. Self-bailing deck. Hull colours: white, navy, battleship grey, black, or custom RAL.
• Tubes: Oversized 58 cm diameter — significantly larger than standard 52 cm tubes — providing extra buoyancy, higher freeboard, and a drier ride in rough conditions. 5 independent air chambers. Tube colours: black, grey, white, orange, red, or blue. Hypalon upgrade available for superior UV longevity.
• Deck & Layout: Centre console with windscreen, front and rear cabin cushions, seat box, fibreglass anchor tray, and 90 L built-in fuel tank. The stainless steel ski bar enables towed activities, and the targa arch with 3 navigation lights supports operations in low-light conditions.
• Engine & Performance: Accepts outboards up to 115 HP (85.75 kW). With a 90–115 HP outboard, expect cruising speeds of 22–26 knots and top speeds of 30–36 knots. The oversized tubes add buoyancy without significantly impacting performance.
• Safety: 5-chamber construction with oversized tube volume for enhanced reserve buoyancy. Bilge pump, targa bar with 3 navigation lights, stainless steel handrails, and ski bar.
• Manufacturing & Quality: Hand-laid GRP hull with isophthalic polyester resin and UV-stable gelcoat. Tubes assembled via hot-air thermofusion welding. Hull structure vacuum-bagged. Every hull water-tested for 72 hours.
• Certifications: CE Category B (offshore) certified under EU Directive 2013/53/EU. ISO 9001:2015 quality management. Hull warranty 5 years, tube warranty 2 years.
• Customisation: Full customisation for commercial fleets — hull and tube colours, console and seating layout, electronics package, and vessel graphics.

Ideal Uses

The RIB580B is designed for boaters, fishing enthusiasts, marine professionals, and commercial operators requiring a stable 5.8 m RIB with oversized tubes for offshore passenger transport, diving operations, and fishing expeditions — comfortably accommodating up to 8 people. The larger tube volume makes it especially suitable for operation in exposed offshore waters, high-sea-state conditions, and applications where a dry, stable ride and enhanced freeboard are essential for crew safety and passenger comfort.
