Worth knowing
Aquaspirit Ribs; cover, cost and conditions
Aquaspirit RIBs builds small rigid inflatables on aluminium hulls. The maker is listed in Great Britain today, but its roots are in Ukraine, where Aquaspirit began by building aluminium RIBs for government and defence use. The leisure range centres on tenders and small runabouts, such as the 350 offered in several versions including the 350C, 350S and 350 Eco. The easiest way to spot one is the bare metal hull beneath the tube. Aluminium is light for its strength, makes launching easy and shrugs off a scrape on shingle better than gelcoat does, which suits owners who want a sturdy, handy tender.
Our model records list three designs, all classed as RIBs. The Aquaspirit 290 measures 2.9 metres, the 320 is 3.15 metres and the 350 reaches 3.48 metres. The 290 and the 350 are listed from 2016, the 320 joined in 2023, and all three run into the most recent build years. No model exceeds three and a half metres, and less than sixty centimetres separate the smallest from the largest. Boats of this size usually serve as a yacht's tender, as a harbour runabout or as a light boat pushed along by a small outboard on a lake or along the coast.
Aluminium hulls need a different kind of care from glassfibre. Where stainless fittings or a bronze propeller meet the hull, galvanic corrosion can start, so anodes should be checked and replaced, and the boat rinsed with fresh water after use in the sea. The tube is the part that ages fastest: look at seams, valves and the joint to the hull, and keep it out of strong sun when it is not in use. On a used boat, check the transom for cracks around the outboard mounting, look for dents along the keel line and ask how hard the engine has been run.
