RIB680A
The RIB680A enters the large RIB class with a 6.6-metre hull rated for powerful 200 HP outboards and a 1,350 kg payload capacity across 7 air chambers. Whether deployed for commercial charter, dive support operations, or serious big-game fishing, this model balances substantial carrying capacity with the responsive handling of a 500 kg deep-V hull. A standard 150 L built-in fuel tank provides the range needed for extended offshore expeditions, while the integrated live well makes it a dedicated platform for serious anglers.
