..AND THE SCANNER RIB WAS BORN!

Looking for the safest, fastest and coolest way of cruising?  This is THE boat for you!

The first vessels used human power for sailing, nowadays, new powerful engines and the precious fluid: fuel, increased speed to the highest level. Due to diverse demands for speed, capacity, modern interior, security the RIB was born! 

Rigid - Inflatable Boats (RIB) is a lightweight but high - performance and high capacity boat, with stable and seaworthy design.

RIBs are designed with hydroplaning hulls. Due to their low weight, RIBs often outperform some types of similarly sized and powered boats. RIBs can also generally cope better with rougher seas, although this may be partially due to an increased level of confidence in knowing that a RIB is hard to sink, and better absorption of heavy loads by the flexible tubes, which therefore make heavy seas less unpleasant. The maximum speed of the RIB depends on its gross weight, power, length and profile of hull, and sea conditions. 

The combination of rigid hulls and large inflatable buoyancy tubes was first developed inspectors of Lifeboats in 1964 as a means of reducing the wear and tear of the fabric bottoms of the existing inflatable inshore lifeboats. Development was then transferred to Atlantic College in South Wales where the rigid section was formed as a deep veep hull to add strength and that worked. The first commercial RIB was introduced in 1967. 

Based on 30 years experience, scanners nowadays have incredibly innovative design. The drafts, drawings and hull fittings are the result of years of research, testing the products in all types of conditions and in the most extreme adverse weather conditions, enabling engineers to select the very best construction materials and technologies so that the final product achieves perfect harmony with the marine environment.

Scanner light weight compared to their powerful engines brings you interesting experiences by it self.  They are recognized for high-quality, characterized by original design and excellent seaworthiness.

If you’re looking for security, speed, power, functionality, capacity, design and comfort, scanner can provide you all of that and a lot of more in one.
