	SOLENT RIB 540
	Best Value for Money UK Built Ribs

The Solent Rib 540 was originally designed for sailing clubs acting as a multi purpose use rib. This rib has a basic layout it is easy to use and gives the owner confidence with its stability and practical handling. It aims to appeal to rib users who want a rib that is easy to use and acts as a general runabout. Easy to launch and recover, easy to tow behind an ordinary family size car. The rib was also built to have space within the rib so it could carry 4 divers & their equipment. Since launching this rib we have also added features for the pleasure market - the rear bench seat, double jockey consoles and stylish A frame.

This popular sporty rib has been designed to be versatile and economical. Suitable for the everyday rib user in the pleasure, dive, and rescue rib markets. This rib can deliver performance with stability and safety. It is small enough to tow behind the average family car and not need a braked trailer. Roomy enough to allow 4 divers and driver plus equipment to use comfortably. With a standard 60hp engine this rib can reach 40mph. With a 4 stroke or E-tec engine the average fuel consumption is 2-3 gallons per hour. This rib has proved popular with training schools and clubs for its ease of launching and sea handling properties. This boat is a hand made quality constructed rib. That's what makes the difference in terms of quality and finish. Grp hull and Henshaw hypalon tubes both hull and tube colour of your choice.
