Plymouth Boat Fest 2026: South West boat show returns bigger and bolder
Plymouth Boat Fest returns in 2026 with more exhibitors, live demonstrations and marine innovation. Discover what to expect from this…
Following on from the successful launch of their 10m model just over a year ago, British RIB manufacturer Island RIBs are set to expand their range again with a new 6.8m model this spring. In keeping with their reputation for achieving extremely high levels of compliance within the industry, the new addition will be fully externally verified for conformity with the Recreational Craft Directive and will also be capable of MCA Coding under the new Workboat Code Edition 3. Island RIBs are also known for their efficient hull design, fine seakeeping and ability to achieve notable performance from relatively low horsepower.
Where can you see it?
A launch event will be held in Cowes in April, and if you’d love to go and see this new craft, do register your interest by contacting Island RIBs by email
