Sneak Peak at new 32 foot Build

Here are a few pics of our first Loki RB-10. It's a Brand new 10 meter RIB that we've spent the last 7 months designing and building.
Delivered to the Evinrude dealer yesterday to have the twin 300hp Etec G2's installed!

Big boat. What is the intended use?

On the trailer, what are those bunks made of? No support for the bracket/motors?

Oh, and your winch post is off-center in the upper pics. :-)

Collar is closed cell foam with a Hypalon Cover.
It's an extreme excursion boat for an exclusive resort located in the Great Bear Rainforest.

Matt, the new boat looks great, roomy inside and the proportions are good.

It’s a combination of balance and being able to tilt up the motors with the full height transom.
Brackets seem to be more popular on this side of the pond.

The new Etec G2's are impressive

Cruisin' at 40 knots in this photo and 23 GPH combined.
Not bad for an 8000lb 32 foot boat.
