A Lineup of Maxi RIBs
Are you seeking the ultimate blend of speed, luxury, and sophistication on the water?
Or perhaps you’re just indulging your curiosity or dreaming about it, ‘What if I win the lottery?’
Either way, let me inspire you with this lineup of elite maxi RIBs. All are 50 ft or 15 m and more.
They are engineered for stylish relaxation enthusiasts and or adventurers alike.
Some of these impressive RIBs enter the category of “crossover boats”. A boat between a RIB and a yacht.
It’s no surprise that these maxi RIBs are often used as charter boats.
Certain brands and models go unnoticed. These include Novamarine, Sacs and others. This happens because they do not have the ‘inflatable’ designation in their maxi RIB model. Alternatively, they just fall short of 50 ft.
Let’s go!
