RIB Retubes

Give Your Rigid Inflatable Boat a New Lease of Life

RIB Retubes

Is your beloved RIB showing its age? Fading colours, persistent leaks, or irreparable damage to the inflatable collar can significantly impact your boat’s performance, appearance, and safety. At RIB Retube, we offer a comprehensive full RIB retube service, providing the most effective solution to rejuvenate your craft and extend its lifespan for many more years of enjoyment.

Why Choose a Full RIB Retube?

A RIB tube replacement isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s an investment in your boat’s future. Over time, UV exposure, abrasions, and general wear and tear can degrade even the highest quality tubes. Our expert retube service addresses these issues, restoring structural integrity and significantly increasing your vessel’s resale value.
