OLR 40SRC Stands for Olympic RIBs

The video presents the OLR 40SRC, a luxury RIB powered by twin Yamaha XTO 450hp V8 engines.

Showcased by our Greek friends at e-Ribbing.com.

Its sleek hull, flawless finish, and high-quality materials immediately convey sophistication, elegance, and refined design.

The deck layout is thoughtfully arranged, combining ergonomic design with practical functionality for leisure or extended trips at sea.

Measuring approximately 12 meters in length with a 3.25-meter beam, the boat weighs about 5,000 kg including engines.

The combination of cabin and deck design maintains a sporty, aggressive profile while providing comfortable overnight accommodation.

Its deep-V stepped hull ensures confident handling, allowing high speeds and safe long-distance cruising in rough offshore conditions.

During sea trials, the boat demonstrates linear acceleration, stable handling, and impressive performance even with a fully loaded cabin.

Helm visibility is excellent, controls respond precisely, and technology integrates seamlessly without disrupting the clean cockpit design.

Premium features like shock-mitigating seats and advanced navigation systems enhance both comfort and performance on every journey.

The twin Yamaha engines use direct fuel injection and integrated electric steering. They deliver up to 96 net amps at low RPM.

This setup maintains optimal running angles and keeps the boat responsive and easy to handle throughout the entire RPM range.

Overall, the OLR 40SRC combines luxury, style, and thrilling offshore capability, proving itself during the sea trial in the video.

STINGHER 34 GT by e-RIBBING.com

Based on this video, it looks to me that the 34 GT Rigid Inflatable Boat by Italboats appears to be quite special.

What immediately caught my attention was the raised bow and gradual elevation of the air chambers contribute to a spacious cabin.

This makes it comfortable and ideal for extended time onboard.

The deep V-shaped hull, carefully positioned spray rails, and arched chine provide stability and efficiency.

At the stern of this STINGHER 34 GT, the integrated bracket plays a key role in optimizing navigation at all speeds.

The deck layout , certainly behind the console prioritizes comfort and functionality, offering plenty of space and freedom of movement.

The e-Ribbing.com team tests in detail a large number of Rigid Inflatable Boats or RIBs on their website.

This time the team showcases the FOST Obsession 860, a Rigid Inflatable Boat designed for rough weather conditions.

The boat’s hull, with a 62-degree entry angle and 26.5-degree deadrise at the transom, allows it to smoothly cut through waves.

It has a sundeck that can accommodate two adults and has storage compartments.

Their video also highlights the Honda BF 250 hp outboard, which has the technology to deliver high power and fuel efficiency.

I really enjoy their videos because of their commitment to keeping it raw.

Essentially, they just grab the camera and shoot capturing the real moments as they unfold: Get Some More of That!.
