SEAFIGHTER Shadow 36 – Twin 4.2 L 300 hp Yamahas

Exceptional SEAFIGHTER Shadow 36

Our friends at Greek based E-Ribbing team recently conducted a full-day sea trial on the Shadow 36, and it left them thoroughly impressed.

“This exceptional setup brought smiles to our faces. The Shadow 36 demonstrated remarkable flexibility, precise directionality, and an exceptionally smooth ride.

Notably, this trial marked the debut of the six-cylinder 300hp Yamaha engines on the vessel’s transom, complemented by the ECO Enertia propellers.

This combination delivered outstanding accelerations and impressive traction across the entire rpm spectrum, making it truly enviable.”

RIBbing for Arctic – 1 Unbelievable Trailer

Karel Overlaet, RIB Advocate

An expedition for Arctic

This trailer is beautifully edited with drone footage, great ambient sounds and atmospheric music. The RIB is a Seafighter powered by two 350 Suzukis.

“It’s not just the many miles we had to cover or the long passes we had to cross.

It’s the extreme temperatures we would encounter, the icebergs we had to navigate between, the thick fog that often covers everything in these latitudes and you can’t even see your bow.

The moving sheets of ice that usually cover a large area, are quickly transported by the wind.

The strong magnetic fields render conventional compasses completely useless since their deviation exceeds 50%.”

The expedition “RIBbing for Artic” will start in July until August 2022. The purpose of this mission is to raise awareness of climate change. It really is a huge challenge.

It is not Thomas Panagiotopoulos‘ first adventure. He has a lot of RIB driving experience in many conditions. He also managed the trip from Greece to the Azores, a stretch of 3,500 nautical miles.

RIBs ONLY wishes the team a successful expedition and a safe return.

From our Greek Friends … keep Ribbing!
