An impressive NSRI Gemini RIB in a fast-pace advertisement video of Altech Netstar, a vehicle tracking system company.
The Cape Town based Gemini Marine has been the sole provider to the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) of South Africa for rescue Rigid Inflatable Boats (RIBs) from 4 meter to 10.6 meter. This since 1984.
They also offer cabin class operating boats to deploy along the rugged South African coastline.
Don’t feel lost and alone out there – the NSRI has your back!
The Humber RIB Invictus by the Pembrokeshire based (UK) Quinquari is something else.
It is a high-performance Rigid Inflatable Boat designed for speed and agility. The boat has a sleek design and powerful engine, noting its ability to reach speeds of up to 65 knots.
The video also highlights several key features, including the deep-V hull, which provides stability and smooth handling, and the state-of-the-art navigation system, which includes GPS and a touch-screen display.
What drew my attention of this Offshore Racing RIB Invictus is the adjustable shock mitigation cabin system.
You see the RIB in action, slicing through the water at high speeds and navigating sharp turns with ease.
This 14 meter Interceptor Olimp M-46 open RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) has a lot of deck space.
The M-46 is a new, high-speed interceptor boat from Croatia. It features a stepped hull and an innovative stern tooth for improved regulation of the front part of the boat.
The purpose of this is to enable special forces such as navy squads, anti-terrorism groups, and the police to undertake shock operations across a large coast region extending up to 400 nautical miles, as well as tactical maneuvers till up 250 nautical miles.
The amazing technology created by Brodarski Institute LLC is remarkable. They are the Experts in Maritime Science, Naval Architecture and Advanced Technologies.
It was tested extensively in the Mediterranean Sea, staying out at sea for over 2 years and going through all kinds of weather and sea conditions.
There is also a cabin version of this Olimp M-46 that looks even more impressive!
I’ve always been fascinated by the Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB). Their form, style, lay-out, toughness, seaworthiness, safety and sportive way of navigating are the unquestionable advantages you’ll rarely find combined in any other type of boat.
