RIB330A

At 3.3 metres with a 160 cm beam and a lean 80 kg hull weight, the Wavefella RIB330A is the lightest 3.3 m fibreglass RIB in the range —an agile four-person platform that planes eagerly with engines as modest as 15 HP and performs strongly all the way to its 20 HP maximum. Its fibreglass deep-V hull and 42 cm Hypalon tubes are engineered for lake, river, and sheltered coastal use, offering a lively yet forgiving ride that appeals equally to families, anglers, and marina operators.

Technical Features

• Hull: CE-certified hand-laid fibreglass deep-V hull delivers a smooth entry through waves and reduced slamming at speed. The 160 cm beam provides reassuring lateral stability when boarding, anchoring, or fishing. At just 80 kg, it is the lightest 3.3 m fibreglass RIB in its class —easily towed behind a compact car and launched by two people without a trailer. Hull colour options: white, navy, grey, black, or custom RAL.
• Tubes: 42 cm diameter Hypalon tubes with 3 independent air chambers deliver generous buoyancy and effective shock absorption. Continuous grab lines and four lifting points come standard. Tube colours: black, grey, white, orange, or blue. Hypalon or PVC material options available.
• Deck & Layout: Open, uncluttered deck seats 4 with two included GRP seats. Ample floor space for fishing tackle, dive gear, or a cooler. Self-bailing deck design prevents water accumulation.
• Engine & Performance: Rated for 2-stroke or 4-stroke outboards up to 20 HP (14.91 KW). The lightweight 80 kg hull means less power is required to achieve plane —a 15 HP outboard delivers spirited performance with 2— persons aboard. Estimated cruising speed 12—7 knots, top speed 18—4 knots depending on load, engine, and conditions. Fuel consumption approximately 4— L/h at cruising speed.
• Safety: Three independent chambers maintain positive flotation if any single chamber is compromised. Non-slip deck surface, grab lines, bow/stern lifting handles, and towing eye included as standard. Hypalon fabric resists UV degradation, abrasion, and fuel spills.
• Manufacturing & Quality: Hand-laid fibreglass hull with vinylester resin for osmosis resistance. Tubes assembled using hot-air thermofusion welding for air-tight, high-strength seams. Every hull undergoes a 48-hour quality soak test and a 24-hour pressure-hold test before delivery.
• Certifications: CE certified under EU Recreational Craft Directive 2013/53/EU (Category C —coastal). ISO 9001:2015 quality management system. Hull warranty 5 years, tube warranty 2 years, buoyancy warranty 5 years.
• Customisation: Custom hull graphics, tube colours, console layouts, and private-label branding available for OEM and fleet orders.

Ideal Uses

A versatile 3.3-metre RIB for boaters, anglers, and operators who value light weight and low running costs:

• Family day boating: Two removable seats provide flexible seating for up to 4. The open layout accommodates a cooler, beach gear, and water toys. Launchable without a trailer —ideal for lakeside holidays.
• Shoreline fishing: Stable beam allows two anglers to fish from the same side. The lightweight hull makes beaching and refloating effortless —perfect for exploring multiple fishing spots in a single outing.
• Marina utility & light commercial: Low weight and compact dimensions suit harbour maintenance, guest shuttling, and light cargo runs. The 80 kg hull can be lifted by two crew without mechanical assistance.
• First RIB: Forgiving handling, modest power requirements, and low purchase price make the RIB330A an excellent entry point for first-time RIB owners.

Its light weight and efficient hull mean lower fuel consumption, easier trailering, and reduced wear on davit systems —practical advantages that accumulate over years of ownership.
