Novurania the market leaders for luxury Super yacht tenders has come up with an innovative and extremely interesting new design for the 6 and 7 meter launch models.

The new RIB design incorporates an opening bow system allowing for passengers to disembark the RIB easily whilst carrying their arm full of champagne and caviar. No more having to hitch up your designer sarong to your knee to climb over the tubes whilst getting out of your landing craft onto your secluded paparazzi free beach.

The opening bow can be used whilst at sea to allow those on board easy access for swimming. Controlled by the helm the ramp is automatically operated but the designers have also built in a manual back up system just in case.

Novurania have guaranteed that when closed the unique sealing system will keep the craft water tight.

The sleek hard wearing Protex foam collar provides excellent fendering protection as well as adding buoyancy and stability.

The RIB comes equipped with a diesel engine power package to ensures reliability and compatibility with the Yachts fuel system and the massive aft engine hatches allow easy engine and drive maintenance. The helm position to starboard is all the driver and crew need to operate the tender whilst taking up little valuable space from the passenger area.

Entry into the tender is located on the port side offering passengers a convenient and safe step way with removable handrails. The main passenger seating area is comfortable and intimate but allows guests to easily kit up with diving or snorkelling gear and make use of the bow ramp into the water.

Novurania President Robert Collada said “I have been waiting to build this boat for many years”

”We now have the quality components proven and in place to make a first class product”

All in all it looks and sounds like a good idea and we are a bit baffled as to why it hasn’t been done already.

Why not let us know what you think?
