New Boats

The VSR RIBs

VSR is a new generation RIB. It stands apart from other professional RIBs with a very slender, high bow, great planing quality and a waterline with minimum wetted surface.

VSRs were originally created to serve the needs of professional sailing coaches and umpires. Today, VSRs are recognized as the ideal RIB for large motoryacht tenders, diving excursions, military and coast guard applications, and commercial ventures.

VSR recently expanded its line to include PRO models ranging from 9m to 11m. These larger RIBs maintain the same high fuel efficiency and smooth seagoing capabilities of the smaller VSRs. The VSR PRO Series meets the needs of recreational users, as well as professional and military clientele.

Design advantages

Wave-piercing. Narrow water line, fine, deep entry and light weight construction.
Easily driven hull. Very low fuel consumption, low HP requirement.
Ergonomic. Comfortable, dry, smooth and safe. Less back pain!
Tough and durable for daily use.
