An Interesting Salpa Comparison
In this very well structured video from Brugge Marine Center, two big Salpa RIBs are being compared. They are namely the Soleil 42 and 33.
Nautica Salpa was founded in 1984. It collects the experience Antonio and Enza Pane have gained over thirty years. They have worked in the pleasure boat sector.
RIB owners claim to have seen an amazing improvement in performance. This is due to a new technology that comes from the aviation industry.
Salpa’s excellent seaworthiness, manoeuvrability, and performance made it a favorite amongst RIBs according to BMC.
Its great structural strength and low weight contributed to its popularity. Additionally, its low fuel consumption was a significant factor.
Proud to share that Brugge Marine Center (BMC) is a good Friend of RIBs ONLY.
Proud to share that ORCA Retail is a Friend of RIBs ONLY.
