8.5m Commuter RIB

[Petter]

Some renderings of an 8.5 meter RIB I am designing for a costumer in Norway. It is designed as a fast commuter between the city and the summer house. Long slender hull for very fine entry angles for a comfortable ride. I will post more details later. Hope you like it...

Very good a project. I believe to be as good and the boat

Is the customers business name the same as a fish often found swimming in circles in a round bowl, looks like there is a resemblance ?

Looks very cool

[Petter]

This project is designed as custom build, and there will only be one built, although variations of the same design would be possible if anyone is interested. There is no connection between this and goldfish.

wow, uncanny resemblance to the Goldfish 29 Rib Tender. It looks nice anyway.

[Petter]

I take that as a compliment Its looks similar with the “Wally” style bow and angular design/styling, but it’s a very different boat, with a non stepped hull and a totally different interior. It’s designed for moderate power and moderate speeds.

please give more details: why not stepped, carbon or not, S/L, L/B, weight, power ? I ask because I'm thinking abut baying next one

I don't see the relevance... would it not have been better to start your own thread?
