TESTIMONIALS
Grand Rigid Inflatable Boat Reviews
Grand G850 Ocean Magazine
“To say that all eyes were on us at the boat ramp would be an understatement… The G850 is a go-anywhere RIB ideal for island hopping and exploring. With category-leading floorspace, easy movement around the vessel, and comfort for up to 16 guests, the G850 is built for family adventures on water.”
Kyle's Verdict on the Grand G750
A morning out on the Grand G750 left Kyle feeling very impressed, describing the experience as ‘truly enlightening’. He says, “The G750 is way more than you would expect and much more than a simple RIB. This vessel has been tastefully refined and designed, and would be at home pressed into service as a primary boat for the family or as a super yacht tender.”

What is considered a large rigid inflatable boat?
A large rigid inflatable boat (RIB) is typically considered to be around 7 metres and above in length.

They also come equipped with features such as marine toilets, cooking facilities and overnight cabins.
What are large adventure RIBs used for?
Large adventure RIBs are designed for versatility and performance. They are commonly used for offshore exploration, island hopping, watersports, coastal cruising and entertaining friends and family. Their deep-V hulls and inflatable tubes provide a combination of stability, comfort and capability in a wide range of sea conditions.
Is an 8 metre RIB boat a good size?
Yes. An 8 metre RIB boat is often considered an ideal balance between performance, comfort and practicality. At this size, many RIBs offer generous seating, larger fuel capacity, and space for additional features such as toilets, swim platforms or enclosed console storage. Our Grand G750 and Grand G850 models (at 7.5 metres and 8.5 metres respectively) are both popular choices for customers looking for an 8 metre RIB boat. These models both include a toilet, bar fridge, sink, tap, shower, cooking facilities, seating and entertaining areas and more.
How fast can a large RIB boat go?
Large RIB boats are known for their impressive performance.

With twin engine functionality, our G850 and G980 models are known to exceed 60 knots.
What is a 10m RIB boat typically used for?
A 10m RIB boat is often used for luxury day boating, adventure cruising, super yacht tender duties and entertaining larger groups.
