Karel Overlaet, RIB Advocate

To Kythnos and Training Wave Handling

Over five days, the team explored the Greek Cyclades using their latest model the 40 P1 bullet.

Along the eastbound journey to Kythnos, several handling lessons are given.

It all begins with an introduction to the console and its instruments. Next is a briefing on the basic behavior of the RIB in waves.

Only through extensive wave-handling practice will you truly develop a feel for how your RIB behaves.

This experience is essential for understanding its response across a wide range of sea conditions.

Instead, he and his guests witnessed a jaw-dropping impressive once-in-a-lifetime ocean erupt.

Massive 300-pound tuna burst from the water, chasing swirling huge schools of anchovies.

Fin whales and sea lions joined the frenzy, feeding all around the boat.

What began as whale watching became a front-row seat to nature’s showcase!
