1. Introduction

An article taken from Scandinavian Inflatable Club (Skandinaviska gummibåtsklubben) membership magazine 1998 issue 4.

Something that must be pointed out is that before 1998 in Sweden there were very few RIBs and sparse knowledge about them.

Something that made it extra exciting and fun to start designing and construct a RIB. And also a feedback from the designer 25 years (!) after the RIB was built.

I’m very honoured that this article has been allowed to get published on RIBs ONLY and I would like to thank these RIB passionates for their outstanding work to bring this unique story to you:
Text and construction: Mats Ryde, Sweden
Translation, epilogue and editing: Mårten Danielsson
