“Our dive boat runs 6 days a week, 50 weeks a year. After two years, the Hypalon fabric still looks new. We've replaced the engine twice but the hull is going strong.”

A dive charter operation in the Maldives runs an Aquafarer RIB for daily dive support. The boat is launched and recovered 4 times daily, exposed to intense tropical sun, saltwater, and frequent beach landings. After 600+ operating days, the Hypalon hull shows no significant UV degradation, no seam separation, and the valves hold pressure perfectly.

“We use our Aquafarer workboat for everything — fish farm inspections, equipment transport, and even as a safety boat for our dive team. It's the most versatile vessel in our fleet.”

A commercial aquaculture operation in Norway uses an Aquafarer RIB for daily service runs between fish farm cages. The boat handles cold North Sea conditions, transports equipment and personnel, and serves as a safety vessel for dive teams performing net inspections.
