Karel Overlaet, RIB Advocate

New Line of RIBs

The Norwegian design has been diligently incorporated into this new Nordkapp Airborne 7, a completely new series of Rigid Inflatable Boats according to Hans Petter Slang, CEO of Frydenbø Marine.

This Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) Nordkapp Airborne 7 with its fiberglass hull, is designed to ensure a secure cornering.

This creates G-forces that keep you in the boat and enhance your level of comfort.

It boasts tailor-made slim tubes and a (typical green) windshield for added comfort and convenience.

This model is the middle between the Airborne 6.3 and 8.

Get a glimpse of these features in this video. I’ve posted more vides of this RIB here.

The unique Ultimate Boats’ deep V hull design by John Moxham promises the complete solution in demanding conditions.

Deep V Hull Design

Those who typically venture out in stormy waters should opt for a Rigid Inflatable Boat with a deep V hull design as it is essential for them to being able to do their job properly and safely.

Deep V hulls offer smooth sailing in rough seas, as they can easily cut through waves and offer a stable ride.

Deadrise

Rigid Inflatable Boats with a deep V-shaped hull create less friction, meaning it can move through water faster and smoother.

The amount of deep V is measured in degrees as you can see in the photo below. The yellow line is the maximum to measure.
