What is difference between a RIB and a Honda Inflatable?
Hello...
I am at the early stages of learning about different types of water craft suitable for crossing a 2 mile stretch of water at all times of the year and in all weather conditions (River Clyde, on West Coast of Scotland)... It is my understanding that RIB's are suitable for such a purpose however they seem expensive. Accordingly I have Identified that a possible alternative is an inflatable boat (is this the same as a RIB?).
The question is.... what is the difference between a RIB and an Inflatable Boat?
I am looking at the following (Model: T25-AE1) Honda Aluminium Decked Inflatable (details of which can be found on page 3 of the following pdf file found at the Honda website...
http://www.honda.co.uk/brochure/download/marineInflatables.pdf
Any advice/comments would be very welcome.
Thanks
Jamie
Obviously RIB is fancier (Steering Wheel,etc...) and heavier unfortunately, but is an Inflatable any less safe or suitable for the water?
Well the difference between a RIB & an inflateable is only the hull structure, The RIB stands for RIGID INFLATEABLE BOAT, which means it has a one piece hull (bottom) & inflateable tubes either side of it, whereas an inlateable craft can be deflated & packed away into the boot of your car, with the floorboards in either many sections (aluminium) or wooden (marine ply) in usualy 3 or 4 sections depending on the size of your craft, any inflateable (of reasonable size) would be capable of crossing the 2 mile stretch of water you mention, providing you have a decent outboard & always carry a spare, & plenty of fuel, as well as life jacket & flares, & not to forget your phone either, but always remember weather conditions can change at a moments notice & without warning, so sailor beware !!! proceed with caution & lastly always check the weather forecast before you embark on your journey !!!!

Stripping a boat down?
What is the easiest way of stripping a boat down (stripping the paint)
aluminium sea rider, 5.3m
atm i am using paint stripper, works ok but is there a faster way?
no sandblasting
Depending on the type of paint used on your boat, stripping is the best way to remove it. However, there are several "strippers" including some that are very harsh, and difficult to use. I'd recommend that you check with local "air fields, for private planes in your area. Ask if they have any businesses there that repaint airplanes. If they do, ask if they use "Turco" strippers or what they do use. If you can get a sample and try it. Follow the directions, and pay attention to protecting the environment. Strippers from the local hardware store might get the job done, but professional strippers are much faster. Take your time and pay attention to the hard to get to areas, your repaint job will show the care you put into it! Good Luck!!! edited....932hr. Google turco paint strippers and follow the link to airplane strippers. BOL
