Ribcraft 6.8m Rigid Inflatable Boat – 2003 – Exceptionally Well Specified
This Ribcraft 6.8m is a serious, commercial-grade RIB renowned for its exceptional seakeeping, rugged construction, and impressive performance. Built to Ribcraft’s exacting standards, these boats are widely used by professional operators and safety services, making them a superb choice for those seeking confidence, durability, and offshore capability.
Presented in very good order, this example benefits from new industrial-quality Hypalon tubes fitted in 2023, finished in a smart blue and grey colour scheme. Ribcraft’s deep-V hull delivers a soft, dry ride even in challenging conditions, making this an ideal platform for leisure, watersports, diving, or coastal exploration.
Power comes from a Honda 225hp four-stroke outboard with just 300 hours from new, reflecting light recreational use. The engine has been well maintained and had summer 2025 service. Performance is brisk yet economical, with Honda’s renowned reliability and refinement.
The layout is both practical and versatile, featuring six jockey seats for secure, comfortable seating at speed. The aft seating can be easily reconfigured thanks to a removable two-person bench seat with rotating backrest, replacing the rear two jockey seats—perfect for relaxed cruising or socialising at anchor.
Additional highlights include:
Full overall cover
Garmin chart plotter
Garmin VHF radio
Fusion marine stereo system
LED lighting mounted on a frame
Twin-axle road trailer included
Wheel bearings replaced December 2025
Notably, the boat has never been antifouled, suggesting dry storage and careful ownership.
This Ribcraft 6.8 represents a rare opportunity to acquire a heavily built, professional-grade RIB with modern electronics, recent tubes, and a powerful low-hour engine—all ready to be enjoyed immediately.
Early viewing is highly recommended.
