I’m looking into getting a small 2/4 man RIB (often used as tenders for larger boats) for use inshore near the Isle of Wight (England). Does anybody know if I will need to have insurance on it?
It will have a small (no more than 10HP) outboard on it as well, don’t know if that changes anything?
I can’t really find much information on it, not even in some of the RYA books. Thanks for any help.
As a small boat sailor on the same patch of water as you I can answer this one…
You aren’t REQUIRED to have insurance on your boat, but I’d REALLY recommend that you do have it, even if you just buy third-party only insurance. If your boat goes out of control, the damage even a small boat with a little outboard can do can run into the hundreds of thousands of pounds.
If you are a member of a local sailing or boating club I’d guess that they have a membership requirement that requires you to have insurance. Many marinas insist that boats berthed in them or using any of their facilities (Including slipway) have insurance.
Oh, and having insurance has saved me thousands over the last 25 years.
PS – a 10hp engine on a 2-4 man RIB? Why do you want to underpower your RIB – I’d recommend at least a 50 on a 13′ RIB.

I’ve experimented with a Sevylor Tahiti, and have concluded that despite the initial worries about punctures, inflatable kayaks are practical fishing boats.
I’m now looking to spend a bit more money and get something a bit more hardcore. I’m looking for something that is good and rigid and that tracks well but can handle a light swell.
I’ve considered the Sevylor SVX200DS or maybe a Sea Eagle Paddleski.
Anybody any thoughts on other makes of inflatable kayak that would be good for fishing in estuaries or coastal inshore seas.
since you are looking at inflatable kayaks, do you have a storage or transportation concern?
another suggestion is to look at folding kayaks,. take a look at the Folbot kayaks, they fold into a couple of manageable bags, take about 20 minutes to assemble, and once assembled become a relatively stable fishing boat. these are large volume kayaks.
you can find more info about them at
http://folbot.com
used one can be found on craig’s list and Ebay.
Hi, im looking for a cheap, yet sturdy inflatable boat. I would like to also atatch a motor to it so it should be a RIB. Lastly, im looking for a dealership within the GTA. Thank-you!
finding a "cheap" inflatable at a dealership may be a problem. suggest that you check out craig’s list for used inflatables.
