I've dived off a wide beam RIB with traverse bottle rack. There weren't too many on board and it left a lot of deck space for kitting up. However, it was cumbersome to walk past and three of the six...

I don't ever envisage spending the types of money that an 11m RIB would cost, but if I did I would expect the QC of the production to match the type of money being paid. It's not a big thing to ask....

A 5.5m plus 90hp would carry 4 divers plus gear without any difficulty (prop size may need to be thought out). I can't recommend going for a larger boat based on my own setup. Having said that, the...
