The K-Rib 9.5 is a sporty and elegant inflatable boat equipped with the futuristic Kineton Yacht Management System (KYMS), developed by Kineton for Vulkan Marine in an exclusive partnership. With a length of 9.5 meters and a maximum width of 3.20 meters, the K-Rib 9.5 employs advanced technologies for significant laminate weight reduction enhancing stability during navigation. The deck and superstructures are crafted using the infusion lamination process, while the hardtop and uprights are made of carbon fiber. This construction approach ensures remarkable performance, even with relatively modest engine power, contributing to sustainability. Equipped with a pair of 225 HP outboard Mercury engines, it can reach speeds exceeding 40 knots, with cruise consumption of between 20 and 30 knots below 2.5 liters per nautival mile. For even more performance, the vessel can accommodate engines with a total power up to 700 HP. The boat features a through-hull echo sounder, bow thruster, anchor winch, and four additional proximity sensors on the sides. In the hull’s compartments, three bilge pumps with independent alarms are installed. The K-Rib 9.5 boasts sleek lines, an eye-catching black hardtop, and a modern, bright cockpit. The helm station, at the heart of the vessel, boasts a clean design with touch panels flush-mounted on a plexiglass incline that forms the windshield. The spacious sun pad at the bow conceals two large storage compartments beneath it. The monolithic hull is hand-laminated with sandwich sides and divided into watertight compartments. The endurance-inspired V-shaped hull offers impressive performance and comfort.
