Robust Outboard RIB for Demanding Operations
Industrial-Grade Polyester Hull
Each Workribs outboard RIB features a heavy-reinforced keel and industrial-grade polyester hull engineered for the toughest maritime environments.
Our hull platforms are:
- Structurally reinforced for tactical and military use
- Designed for harsh offshore and coastal conditions
- Built for long service life with low maintenance
- Mission-configurable to meet defense and NATO specifications
High-Performance Planing Deep-V Hull
The hull is a fully planing, deep-V design with spray rails and a reverse chine to deliver optimum seakeeping at all speeds and in all sea states. The glass-fibre reinforced polyester hull (fire retardant resin options available) uses a balanced layup of multiple glass-fibre layers and woven roving with additional keel reinforcements for exceptional impact and torsional strength. Hull and deck are manufactured as a single structural unit; the voids between hull and deck are filled with buoyancy foam for added flotation and resilience. The fast rescue configuration is selfbailing—the cockpit floor is positioned above waterline even at low speed.
Durable, Weather-Resistant Protection
ORCA Neoprene-Hypalon Buoyancy Tube
The buoyancy tube is constructed from ORCA Neoprene-Hypalon fabric (Polyester High Tenacity 1670 dtex), offering superior weather, chemical and abrasion resistance.
Key features:
- Five independent chambers with individual valves for rapid inflation/deflation
- Precision fabrication and high-quality seams to ensure leak-free performance
- Neoprene rubbing strakes on both sides and bow protection for abrasion resistance
- Lifelines on both sides for crew safety and secure operations
4-leg lifting arrangement
The work boat can be lifted by a 4-leg lifting arrangement. The areas in the polyester hull around the lifting eyes are reinforced in order to lead the forces well into the hull construction. The 4-leg lifting sling has the right dimensions to lift the boat horizontally and every boat is provided with a certified lifting arrangement.

Engineered for the Toughest Missions
Mission-Specific Military RHIB Platforms
Workribs Holland specializes in mission-specific, customized military RHIBs and outboard RIBs designed and built in the Netherlands for navies, coast guards, and defense forces worldwide. Unlike standard production RIB manufacturers, Workribs develops industrialgrade RHIB platforms around operational requirements. Each vessel is configured to the deployment profile—NATO boarding operations, maritime interception, offshore rescue, border security, and special forces insertion.
Available mission-fit options:
- Military and law-enforcement consoles, communications, radar, and quick-transfer
crew systems - Multiple outboard propulsion packages and extended-range fuel systems
- Fire-retardant materials, anti-slip decking, and specialized coatings
- Certification, testing and integration to naval and defense standards
