RIB580B

The RIB580B distinguishes itself with larger 58 cm diameter tubes —6 cm wider than the standard 580A —offering significantly enhanced buoyancy and a higher freeboard for operators tackling more demanding sea states. Powered by outboard engines up to 115 HP with an 8-person, 1,200 kg payload capacity and a 90 L built-in fuel tank, this 5.8-metre RIB is equally at home on commercial charter runs, offshore patrol duties, or weekend deep-sea fishing expeditions where stability in rough conditions is paramount.

Technical Features

• Hull: CE-certified hand-laid fibreglass deep-V hull with a 2.38 m beam and heavy-duty offshore construction. At 450 kg, the hull provides a solid, confident platform in rough seas. Self-bailing deck. Hull colours: white, navy, battleship grey, black, or custom RAL.
• Tubes: Oversized 58 cm diameter —significantly larger than standard 52 cm tubes —providing extra buoyancy, higher freeboard, and a drier ride in rough conditions. 5 independent air chambers. Tube colours: black, grey, white, orange, red, or blue. Hypalon upgrade available for superior UV longevity.
• Deck & Layout: Centre console with windscreen, front and rear cabin cushions, seat box, fibreglass anchor tray, and 90 L built-in fuel tank. The stainless steel ski bar enables towed activities, and the targa arch with 3 navigation lights supports operations in low-light conditions.
• Engine & Performance: Accepts outboards up to 115 HP (85.75 kW). With a 90—15 HP outboard, expect cruising speeds of 22—6 knots and top speeds of 30—6 knots. The oversized tubes add buoyancy without significantly impacting performance.
• Safety: 5-chamber construction with oversized tube volume for enhanced reserve buoyancy. Bilge pump, targa bar with 3 navigation lights, stainless steel handrails, and ski bar.
• Manufacturing & Quality: Hand-laid GRP hull with isophthalic polyester resin and UV-stable gelcoat. Tubes assembled via hot-air thermofusion welding. Hull structure vacuum-bagged. Every hull water-tested for 72 hours.
• Certifications: CE Category B (offshore) certified under EU Directive 2013/53/EU. ISO 9001:2015 quality management. Hull warranty 5 years, tube warranty 2 years.
• Customisation: Full customisation for commercial fleets —hull and tube colours, console and seating layout, electronics package, and vessel graphics.

Ideal Uses

The RIB580B is designed for boaters, fishing enthusiasts, marine professionals, and commercial operators requiring a stable 5.8 m RIB with oversized tubes for offshore passenger transport, diving operations, and fishing expeditions —comfortably accommodating up to 8 people. The larger tube volume makes it especially suitable for operation in exposed offshore waters, high-sea-state conditions, and applications where a dry, stable ride and enhanced freeboard are essential for crew safety and passenger comfort.
