Planes quickly and handles precisely
Our rigid fiberglass hull sportboat planes quickly and handles precisely, yet weighs less than comparable models so it performs better and will put less strain on your back and your lifting davits. 16"dia. tubes provide impressive stability and handle big payloads. Molded, nonskid interior deck provides a safe and stable platform for passengers and gear. Tubes are constructed from high-quality 1100 Decitex PVC fabric with airtight, thermobonded seams.
Standard features include three strong lifting points, a wooden bench seat, lifelines, a pair of towing rings and bow carry handles, bellows pump, aluminum oars, aluminum outboard plate and a repair kit.

Comments about RIB 310 Sportboat:
This boat is a great little boat works for all needs the fiberglass V helps alot and gets it in a plane a lot faster. The flat hard floor is great this boat it is aweone. Best boat I've ever had nothing really bad beside it dose fold up that small, so I just use a trailer. I have a 1977 9.9 hp evinrude on it and it flies I counted how long it take to get in a plane and it took 2 and 1/2 seconds. it's very air tight no reason to refill air chambers very easy to clean overall this is a great boat for all people.

Comments about RIB 310 Sportboat:
Our 310 is used primarily for a tender and performs that function well. Reasonable tracking when rowing. The only criticism is the oarlocks... have broken/bent two. If the keeper does not engage properly, the dowel that fits into the oarlock can come partway out and bend under pressure. It is reinforced with a center screw, but repeated bending/unbending causes it to break.
