Rigging | The Hull | The Tubes












Rigging

Ribcraft offer complete packages including console layouts, engine, propulsion system, electrical/electronic systems, trailers, stainless steel and steel fabrication. All options can be tailored to individual requirements and professionally fitted to the highest standards by Ribcraft factory-trained technicians.

Consoles and Seating
Our consoles and seating are designed to be as user friendly and comfortable as possible with rougher conditions in mind. This is the reason why all of our consoles and seats are fibreglass bonded to the deck, it increases the strength and insures they are waterproofed. Bonding consoles and seats into boats actually costs far more in time and materials than using self-taping screws. Take a look at the waterproof and strength qualities next time you look at another manufactures seating and consoles.

Fuel Systems
Ribcraft's fuel tanks are all made from Stainless Steel and are housed under the deck. This insures that the weight is at the lowest centre of gravity in the boat and thus helps the handling. It also frees up storage space under the console. This method is far superior to under console plastic tanks and is proven over many years of use.

Cable Ducting
Ribcraft were the first manufacturer to use an under deck cable ducting system as standard on our range. All cabling is run directly from the console to the stern, leaving a completely un-cluttered deck. This system protects the cables from harm and also makes a very tidy installation.

Outfitting
Ribcraft offer complete packages including engine, propulsion system, electrical/electronic systems, trailers and stainless steel fabrication. All options can be tailored to individual requirements and professionally fitted to the highest standards by Ribcraft's factory trained technicians. Ribcraft can design and install special equipment such as fully immersion proof electrics as seen on their lifeboat specification boats.

Engine Options
Ribcraft are able to supply the engine of your choice, we are main dealers offering new engine sales, servicing and spares for Honda, Mariner and Suzuki and original equipment suppliers of Yamaha, Yanmar diesels, Evinrude and Volvo. Our engine installation is well thought out, batteries and equipment live under the console to keep them from harms way, and we manufacture complete new battery cables for this. All the Outboard engines are fitted at the correct height and have the correct amount of offset. Ribcraft also offer a Propeller exchange scheme to ensure the customer has the right propeller for the given application.
