Winner Boat of the Year 2009 2010RECREATION VESSELS

Recreational vessels are built to specific requirements, depending upon the very specific needs of the owner. For example, one request was for a live on-board tank as the owner has a hobby of diving for tropical fish and wanted to transport them to his home tank.

After spending a year researching and comparing various RIB options I acquired a 4.8m Naiad built by Kirby Marine. I was impressed with the people at Kirby Marine who patiently fielded my never ending questions and invited me to a testing session where they had various Naiads on hand. I was instantly astonished by the soft ride of the 4.8m Naiad, its strong construction and fantastic quality finish. The Naiad will always be my first choice due to its rugged aluminium hull construction and clever design. The market recognizes this and consequently re-sale value is maintained.

Kirby Marine has a well deserved reputation for doing everything “right” – their boats are built to a standard that has no equal. Added to this is an excellent after sales customer focused attitude. If you are looking for a 'performance' RIB to suit challenging sea conditions then a Kirby Naiad is what I recommend.
