RIB (fibreglass Bottom) VIB (V shape Inflatable bottom)
What do people look for most in a inflatable boat?
- Safety : Safety is definitely the most important aspect of our boats. We have at least 3 independent air chambers for the boat, our PVC is also specially treated to make it Abrasion resistant and very durable and High Quality. Our factory is also supplying inflatable boats to Military forces and Search and Rescue teams around the world.
- Ability to get a license : In Hong Kong, the licensing of RIB boats was a bit difficult in 2017. However our boats are CE certified and Carry the ISO 6185 stability standard compliance. With all the quality paper work and easily things that are transparent and verifiable enable us to easily get the licenses for our boats.
- Attachments and Peeling off : The problem areas in rubber inflatable boats are the corners and glued points where the inflatable boat PVC starts to tear off. These areas are specially looked after by the factory, made more thicker and with extra padding. To ensure the inflatable boats last long. Checked in very hot tropical countries like Philippines. The PVC attachments still stand. Hypalon is also recommended if you think your storage area is going to be extremely hot.
- Quality of Material : This is an important thing to understand because there are many different qualities and they do behave differently under different weather conditions. Our boats have been checked, certified and most importantly with years of experience and improvements, our inflatable boats have no complaints from our customers. We have PVC of up to 1.2 mm thickness which has high resistance to Abrasion and high temperature. We also provide Hypalon fabric which is made in Japan or France.
- Balance : Although Inflatable boats are light, and we know they wobble but this needs to have its limits and our boats have such tests done to ensure the they are well balanced and can handle fairly rough water.
