Island RIBs 7m – 7.5m range - Horizon Yacht Sales

Designed not only to look good but to cope with extensive use in difficult conditions for many years, this range offers a perfect balance between performance and practicality. The extensive list of available options means that this versatile platform can be adapted for many uses from commercial chase boats to family leisure RIB. The Island RIBs 7m – 7.5m range all come with a beam of 2.54m.

The deep-V hull ensures responsive and predictable handling and a smooth ride. Fitted with moulded splash well and full-height polycarbonate windscreen as standard, the 7m-7.5m range will keep you dry even in difficult conditions.

Manufactured using only Lloyd’s approved GRP materials, the RIBs are built with durability and reliability in mind. The 7m – 7.5m series RIBs have been MCA type tested to Cat 3 (r), the maximum category possible for an open boat, and independently verified as RCD category B.

Island RIBs 7m – 7.5m features and options

All vessels in this range can be manufactured with petrol outboard (single or twin) or diesel inboard engines.

Standard features include 1300gsm Hypalon tubes (full range of colours) with wear patches, rubbing strake and grab handles, anti-slip textured deck, foredeck mounted cleat, large fore locker, 220l stainless steel fuel tank and twin independent bilge pumps.

All RIBs are built with plenty of internal stowages: The moulded GRP splash well provides three dry lockers with a total of more than 340l capacity and the large foredeck locker is fitted with a watertight Lewmar hatch.  All jockey seats are built with an access hatch.

We offer a wide range of seating options including single and double jockey seats, suspension seats and 2 or 4-person box seats.  Rear seating can be manufactured to be removable, enabling the operator to carry more passengers or cargo as required.

Island RIBs can be manufactured with a console or stern-mounted stainless-steel A-frame or with stainless-steel bimini to offer some protection from the elements.   Fore and aft Sampson posts can be fitted for mooring and towing.
