Another Humber Destroyer 5.5m ready for dispatch, this one is making its way down to our Welsh dealer and commercial partner, Quinquari Marine, for final fit-out and coding.

Built to a heavy-duty commercial specification, this craft represents the maximum capability achievable within a fully coded 5.5m platform.

Every element of the layout has been optimised to make the most of the available space, delivering a practical and highly capable working vessel.

It is also equipped with a self-righting system, providing an additional level of safety for commercial operations.

We look forward to seeing this one completed and out on the water soon.

Who is the only UK RIB manufacturer to have been in continuous production for over 60 years?

Humber Ribs.

With more than six decades of uninterrupted boatbuilding heritage, Humber Ribs is not only the oldest RIB manufacturer in the UK, but also one of the longest-established RIB builders in the world.

Our designs, hull performance philosophy, and build approach have influenced generations of RIB manufacturers that followed.

While others came and went, Humber has remained — refining, developing, and building craft engineered to endure, with quality proven over decades of real-world use.

Great to see our Welsh dealer and commercial partner Quinquari Marine taking delivery of two commercially coded Humber RIBs.

A 10.5m Offshore Pro Passenger charter series, soon to join the Voyages of Discovery fleet, alongside a 7.0m Ocean Pro heavy duty work boat series, both built and certified for demanding commercial use.

From passenger operations and patrol craft to specialist professional applications, Humber Ribs offers extensive knowledge, proven experience, and one of the widest commercially coded RIB ranges available. Our team understands the requirements, compliance, and real-world demands that commercial operators rely on.
