Ribcraft 850 Sport
Last Updated on Sunday, 19 April 2009 12:00 Written by Sunday, 19 April 2009 11:18
The Ribcraft 850 sport is the flagship of the Ribcraft leisure range. The 850 is large enough to be considered a serious offshore craft while still being a great leisure RIB capable of usual cruising, waterskiing or blasting. The Ribcraft quality is evident throughout the sleek styling and elegant lines of it’s design.
The 850 sport RIB has been designed with the family in mind. A great seating area and plenty of internal space means this boat is comfortable. The low deck and console position allow for comfort while in rough seas. There are four jockey seats as standard designed for safety but with comfort in mind. Two tone tubes and a choice decking, combined with the contoured A frame complete the styling of the 850 sport.

RIB Boat For Sale
Last Updated on Wednesday, 20 May 2009 10:18 Written by Friday, 17 April 2009 03:05
If you are looking for RIB boats for sale, then there are many manufacturers online or websites advertising used RIBs. eBay has plenty of used RIB boats and is a great place to pick up a bargain. If buying from eBay it is advisable to view the boat before bidding. It may look like a bargain in the pictures but if the tubes leak and there are cracks in the hull you could be overpaying.
If your looking to advertise your boat on a site, make sure when you list your craft you know if there is a one off fee involved or/and a sale price % cost.
Inflatable RIB Boat

RIB is short for Rigid Inflatable boat. In the smaller sizes a RIB is often used as a tender. It’s the perfect tender because they are durable, safe and will not damage your yacht when coming alongside. Their light weight means they can take a small engine yet still be quick and manouvarable.
Here’s a video of a RIB that would be useful as a tender. It has a 15hp engine and still has a reasonable turn of speed.
