The Construction
Ribcraft 6.8 has a cross linked inner matrix hull construction making her incredibly strong; the lay up is to commercial specification.

The 6.8 is capable of extended long distance cruising, her fuel tanks are located under-deck, maximising the console space and lowering the centre of gravity thus improving trim and handling.

The tubes are bonded to the hull over an extended tube flange that gives them far superior bonding strength between tube and hull than conventional flanges. The end product is an immensely strong hull and tube that meets M.C.A. Approval
