Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A RIB, or Seaboat (Pacific 24 Mark-4) from HMS Duncan photographed during a joint exercise in the Aegean Sea with German and Turkish Navies.

The RIBS can travel from ship or shore at speeds of up to 38 knots (44mph) as a rapid response craft to perform fast rescue, anti-piracy and counter-narcotics missions.

The Pacific 24 Mark-4 RIB have high-performance shock absorbing seats, which will minimise crew fatigue, allowing them to travel up to six times the distance.

The fourth generation Pacific 24 RIB features a 370HP twin turbo diesel electronic engine with inbuilt self-diagnostic technology. The boats have also gained the Safety of Life at Sea accreditation meaning they can now also be used for rescue operations.
