Dont know about ribs, think theres an advert in the back of rib international, for fishing boats do a google on "At the fishing" which is a guy up in Orkney that collates some cracking footage from Skippers.
On the other hand if you have Sky Tv watch Deadliest Catch on Discovery, Tuesday night, to see some of the Alaska boat in the Bearing Sea.

We have a DVD 'Heavy Weather Power Boating' which I found on Amazon, IIRC. See also www.bennettmarine.com (in the menu at the top, click 'Boating', then 'Handling' and scroll down. I see there is also an 'Advanced Heavy Weather Boating' DVD now too.) It's only 46 minutes long though and doesn't have much (if any) footage of RIBs. Its purpose is to teach the viewer how to handle rough weather situations and how to try to avoid them in the first place. HTH
