A smaller Rupert.

RIB 36 with dual Yanmars. Nice boat, but light structure. I personally prefer more professionally oriented constructions.

Boomeranger C-1100 here, again the same boat seen in Helsinki Boat Show. I think the best RIB in the show....:-)

Gigantic go-anywhere boat...perhaps a RIB, even though not purely inflatable concept.

Cockpit here, I prefer same taste as the owner of this yacht....:-)

Anytech at show, like a RIB, but, well, still rigid hull boat I think.

I agree, Stickholm Show has a special approach to RIBs, I don't know why, but there has been for last five years a large number of serious RIBs. Helsinki show is also growing nice, but still behind Stockholm clearly.
