F-rib

What are ribs doing on a paddle board fishing website? Once you have got used to the freedom of fishing from a paddle board brings you want to do anything else. However there are days and situations not ideal for paddle boards and the F-rib covers those days perfectly whether it is the weather or wanting to introduce a friend to fishing the F-rib covers those situations and more.

F-rib – The unique folding boating solution. From the boot of a car to on the water in less than ten minutes!

A “foldable rigid boat” sounds a contradiction of terms but these boats have a hull made from thee rigid interlocking sections. This makes them much easier to transport and store - taking little more space than an all-fabric boat, whilst retaining the performance, stability and durability advantages of a conventional RIB.
The hull sections have interlocking tabs and slots, held together by the pressure in the tubes. Once assembled it's difficult to tell they fold. 
The design is great and oars and user guides are included. They can also be used as versatile fishing boats.
They have top quality finishing. Once inflated, they are fully rigid.
