A RIB for the Freediving
Current freediving world record holder Stephane Mifsud has held his breath under water for an incredible 11 minutes 35 seconds.
A highly experienced diver, Stephane, shares his passion and skills through his Odyssée Bleue Freediving School.
The school is based in Hyères, France. A wide range of courses are offered at all levels.
Stefane’s students enjoy the smooth ride to the nearby deep water dive areas in a Highfield Boats Patrol 860 (see specs below)..
The Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) is recognized for its pedigree as a hardcore work boat.
It offers high manoeuvrability, safety and a soft dry ride.
Proud to share that Highfield is a good Friend of RIBs ONLY.
