OverviewThe OrangePit professional RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) is derived from Dutch Blue Spirit and Alunautic designs and is offered with aluminium or GRP hulls. Equipped with Hypalon or polyurethane fenders, these RIBs are intended for nearshore operations and shallow-water work.
Performance and designDepending on propulsion type and engine power, OrangePit RIBs can reach speeds up to 50 knots or more when fully loaded (actual speed varies with sea state and outfit). The V-shaped hull and Blue-Spirit foam buoyancy system provide high-speed seakeeping and excellent reserve buoyancy. Decks are self-bailing and fitted with anti-slip surfaces to support safe crew and cargo movements.
Variants and optionsStandard lengths range from 6.50 m to 18.00 m. Propulsion can be specified as outboard (diesel or petrol) or inboard diesel with jet drives or stern drives. Configurations include open helm stations, T-Top canopies, or enclosed wheelhouse (cabin) versions. Additional outfitting and mission-specific options are available for patrol, workboat, SAR, or transport roles.
Documentation and complianceOrangePit RIBs are supplied with CE classification and comprehensive documentation. Vessels are delivered ready for operational use, with an emphasis on straightforward maintenance access and practical seamanship features.
