UK manufacturer Ribcraft announces new orders from Camper & Nicholsons Marinas on first day of Tullett Prebon LIBS

British manufacturer Ribcraft has secured orders of over £75K for 6.4 metre RIBS, powered by twin Yamaha 60hp outboards, from Camper & Nicholsons Marinas, the world leader in the yachting and marina operations sector. Ribcraft was founded in 1988 and has since gained an enviable reputation as the leading British builder of reliable and superbly manufactured Rigid Inflatable Boats (RIBS). C&N Marinas will be using the RIBS as workboats in its ever expanding portfolio of world wide marinas and is planning to have one stationed at the new 400 berth Çeşme Marina, Turkey, ready for the marina’s completion later this year. James Beaver, C&N Marinas Operations Director said, “We are delighted that Ribcraft has chosen to announce this order at the start of one of the most prestigious events in the marine events calendar and it is good to be able to support a British manufacturer producing products built to such high standards.” Ribcraft is one of the only British manufacturers to design and construct the entire boat ‘in-house’ at its purpose built factory in Yeovil, Somerset. Each craft is built from the GRP hull, inflatable collar and stainless steel fittings to the electrical and engine installations. This ensures each RIB is built to the highest standard, with great emphasis placed on the safety, durability and quality of construction.
