!!! eeek!

The boat is actually not a RIB, but one of two inflatables with a built in fold up wooden floor that we built for the Somerset Fire Brigade a couple of years ago They are carried on Taunton fire tenders as rescue boats. The design is based on our Tinker dinghy but they were specially lengthened and fitted with compressed air inflation for emergency use

Perhaps not... in that case try rolling up a RIB and storing it on a Fire Engine... and no I don't include that crappy Avon/Zodiac modular RIB...
