A Family Adventure

This video is about an adventure aboard the XS RIB along the west coast of the Isle of Lewis Scotland.

The Hebrides, which is the area of Scotland that lies to the west and north of Scotland’s mainland, has historically been the place where a lot of Scottish Gaelic literature and Gaelic music has originated.

The lagoon on Great Bernera is where the sun always seems to shine. They all hade fun with the boats, lobster potting, and water sports.

I found this interested description of the island group on Wikipedia.

This video was published on the XS Ribs & BMC Ltd YouTube channel.

I’ve posted more videos of the XS RIB brand here. Enjoy!

XS Rigid Inflatable Boats: How to Repair a Tube

December 15 2020October 22 2025 Karel Overlaet, RIB Advocate

Repairing a Tube

XS Rigid Inflatable Boats make commercial and leisure RIBs, with PU (Polyurethane) tubes.

Many people say it is very hard to fix OLD PU boats. This is not true. We show you here that the process and glues used are the same as you use on Hypalon.

The boat we use in the Video is 25 years old. We make new boats. We also offer professional repairs and re-tubes of all makes of craft in either PU or Hypalon.

Proud to share that ORCA Retail and ORCA Pennel & Flipo are good Friends of RIBs ONLY.
