The Rafnar ÖK Hull Explained – How it works

The hull is the most important part of the RIB.

Why can Rafnar boats go out to sea whilst others head to shore? Listen to Rafnar Icelands head-boatbuilder and some of the Norths toughest crews explain why Rafnar boats are quickly becoming the preferred choice for serious mariners.

In the video we briefly explain why this unique patented Icelandic solution has pushed the boundaries of hull design and infiltrated a conservative and often stagnated market. See why dedicated SAR-teams love their boats and how it has impacted their often dangerous and extreme work environment.

It is simple really, those who sail know that a crew ultimately has to put its trust in their boat and the ocean rarely offers ideal conditions, so for rough seas where every second counts, you better make it a Rafnar.
