Thanks for responding.

Looking more for an offshore style with a proper protected console rather than the aport RIB type - although they are also great fun.

The aim being to be able transit in a bit of bad weather and stay drier and a bit more comfortable than low console sport ribs

RIBase
Highfield make one that should do what you need side roll down when required to give great protection and the one I've seen in Dorset has a diesel heater inside.

Couple of examples below.
