Superonda 820 RIB Rough Ride in the Aegean Sea
Greek Built Superonda 820
On Mother’s day in 2017, two brave men set off at the South West edge of Kithnos island in Greece.
They were going upwind against a 6 Beaufort.
They took the challenge in their Superonda 820 Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB).
The boat is powered by twin 200 hp 4 cylinder Mercury Verados.

In people’s adventures, I often read that they mention only the force of the wind. Most of the time, it is used as a reference.
After some research I wrote an article of the importance of defining the height of the waves as well to describe the context better: Wind, Waves, Swell: Beaufort vs Douglas Sea Scale

Rough Icelandic Sea in The Comforts of a Rafnar 1100 Professional RIB
The Rafnar 1100 Professional RIB in Action
A day out last winter, RVK forecast was: -7° Celsius and snowing, sunrise at 11:00, sunset at 15:30.
There is nothing quite like the Icelandic winter. Often reminiscent of the Icelandic summer, the choice to live and work here is rarely taken because of our sunny beaches.
Life here has adapted to strong winds, unpredictable weather and the occasional summer snow.
Just like the other inhabitants of this island, Rafnar adapted and made the best out of it.
Necessity is the mother of invention, so through more than a decade of R&D, Rafnar has created a boat that is built for the worst conditions and because of that, is ideal for all conditions.
