RIB Info

Just recently we had gone on a cruise. My girlfriend and I had done this shore excursion which was a blast. It consisted of piloting our own boat (eventually found out it was a RIB). After we had returned I began searching the internet to possibly found out more information about them. This boat was about 8 to 9 feet in length and had a center console with just simple controls a steering wheel and a throttle control. This would be all I would need though it’s been hard to find a commercial outlet that sells these. Do you have to buy the hull, center console, and engine all separate? Any links or recommendations would be great. Thanks in advance.

8 or 9ft is small for a RIB.
You should be able to buy a complete package including trailer. Some boats use this size of RIB as a tender so you may find something searching for that?
