Salpa Soleil 42 vs 33 – What’s Your Favourite Big RIB model

In this very well structured video from Brugge Marine Center, two big Salpa RIBs are being compared namely Soleil 42 and 33.

Nautica Salpa was founded in 1984 and collects the experience that Antonio and Enza Pane have gained for more than thirty years in the pleasure boat sector.

RIB owners claim to have seen an amazing improvement in performance thanks to a new technology that originates from the aviation industry.

Salpa’s excellent seaworthiness, manoeuvrability and performance, combined with its great structural strength, low weight and fuel consumption made it a favourite amongst RIBs.
