Aluminium RIBs: your questions
Who builds Aquaspirit boats?
Aquaspirit is a Ukrainian manufacturer of aluminium RIBs. Every boat is built at the company’s own shipyard in Ukraine, with a hull welded from EN AW 5083 marine-grade aluminium, and carries CE certification. Aquaspirit sells its boats worldwide.
What is an aluminium RIB?
A RIB (rigid inflatable boat) pairs a rigid hull with inflatable tubes around its sides. The tubes add buoyancy and stability and cushion contact with a quay or another boat. In an aluminium RIB the hull is welded aluminium rather than moulded fibreglass. The full comparison is in Aluminium vs fibreglass RIBs.
What is the best RIB for a family?
The one that seats your family with room to spare and suits the car that tows it. Look for a cockpit where children sit well inside the tubes, seats with storage underneath and a hull that planes without a big engine. For most families that means a 4.5 to 6 m RIB such as the S450 C or S530. Larger groups move up to the S585 or S700.
How fast is an aluminium RIB?
That depends on length, load and engine. The S450 C passes 60 km/h with a 60 hp engine. The S530 reaches 70 km/h with 100 hp. The professional S700 HD runs at over 90 km/h.
Is an aluminium RIB comfortable?
Comfort comes from layout and hull shape as much as from the material. The S585 is built around soft seating, a functional deck and space for personal belongings, and stays stable in corners and waves. SeaDek flooring and soft cushions are options on every leisure model. A fibreglass hull can ride more quietly in a short chop; the S530’s V-shaped hull and wide stern keep the ride predictable.
Hypalon or PVC tubes?
Both are available. PVC tubes cost less; ORCA Hypalon tubes resist sun, heat and fuel better and last longer, which matters for boats kept in the water or used hard. Our guide Hypalon vs PVC compares them in detail.
How do I buy an Aquaspirit RIB boat?
Choose your model, configure it if it is in the 3D configurator, and send a quote request. Each boat is quoted individually, because the price depends on the model, engine and equipment. We put you in touch with your nearest dealer, or you can find one on the contacts page.
