Our 9'8" RIB is one of our most popular boats! This is perfect for 4 people and gives you a beautiful ride or towing experience with the deep V, aluminum hull and larger tubes to keep you dry. This boat has a flat deck floor (“double hull.”) We have folks using this size boat in the Arctic Circle on a National Geographic adventure and in the Bahamas on a cruise!
"Loving our inflatable. It gets its share of comments when we are using it. Everyone loves how dry it is when we get up on a plane into some rough water." Customer Dwayne Kulk
