The New Tempest 800 Open is a Complete Redesign
From hull to deck, this Capelli RIB nearly every element has reportedly been reworked to improve comfort, functionality and onboard space.
At the stern, a spacious cockpit surrounds a single outboard engine of up to 350 hp.
The central lounge features a reclining backrest and an optional hydraulic table, which may convert into an extended sunbed.
The helm station offers integrated storage, USB charging, optional refrigeration and space for modern electronics.
A wraparound windshield and optional T-Top could enhance protection underway.
Forward, the bow includes generous sunbathing areas, additional seating and access to an optional marine or chemical toilet.
Otherwise, the compartment may serve as practical storage.
The redesigned bow incorporates an integrated anchor system and a wider boarding area.
With maximum power, the Tempest 800 Open could exceed 50 knots while maintaining comfort.
It is reportedly certified in both CE category B* and C*.
