7 SOLAS

Safety Of Life At Sea (SOLAS).

Sharing the same design as the standard 7 Meter RIB, the RIBCRAFT 7 Meter SOLAS is a rescue boat with full SOLAS certificate from the United States Coast Guard. Used exclusively onboard Military Sealift Command (MSC) Navy class ships, the RIBCRAFT 7 Meter SOLAS boat is ideal for use in other industries requiring a SOLAS vessel: passenger ferries, research vessels, and offshore oil and shipping fleets.
