NARWHAL
The NARWHAL FRB-700 SOLAS Rigid Inflatable
Boat is designed for rescue operations on
high seas with a maximum capacity of 7 + 1
people under a MED (SOLAS) Type Approval issued
by Lloyd’s Register. The console is wide and protects
the pilot against the wind and spray with sufficient
space to install state of the art electronic equipment.
It is connected to the single point hoisting system with
a Henriksen quick release mechanism. It is equipped
with a 220hp VOLVO Inboard Diesel Engine and a
Hamilton waterjet propulsion system. Fuel is supplied
via a 200lt fuel tank located under the deck and
offering an autonomy of 4 hours and maximum speed
of 32kt depending on sea state. The A Frame located
at the rear has a self-righting system, radar reflector,
life buoy and navigation lights. The deep V Hull allows
smooth sailing and great manoeuvrability in turns with
a reinforced structure offering greater resistance and
durability. The deck is made of a reinforced glass fibreboard
and a non-slip and fireproof covering.

RIBEYE
The goal of the Ribeye SOLAS Tender range is to create a
collection of flexible tenders that truly contribute to your
yacht and tender fleet rather than being stowed away and
never used. Every Ribeye tender is based upon an offshore hull
with a deep V and sizeable bow sheer meaning each tender will be
the most stable and dry riding tender in class. By combining these
core characteristics of the Ribeye with the SOLAS specifications
means that the Ribeye sets a new standard in the yacht tender
market. Ribeye SOLAS Tenders are available from 6 - 9m with
either outboard or inboard propulsion systems.
