2017 VIPER HYPALON RIB 7.6M (2017)

This 2017 Viper Hypalon RIB represents one of the most capable and well-equipped inflatable vessels on the New Zealand market. Built by Viper Ribs in South Africa, the 7.6m LOA hull features a fibreglass bottom with 23-degree deadrise - purpose-engineered to carve through choppy offshore conditions with confidence and composure. Power comes from a Yamaha F250 four-stroke outboard with a mere 86 hours on the clock, delivering a blistering 45-knot top speed and a comfortable 30-knot cruise. Safety is paramount with seven individual pontoon compartments, each fitted with safety valves and a 12V electric inflation pump. A 300-litre stainless steel fuel tank and 150-litre freshwater tank underpin serious range and self-sufficiency offshore. Navigation and entertainment are fully sorted - Garmin multifunction display with Panoptix transducer, VHF radio, Fusion stereo and Yamaha LCD display. The centre console includes a Purspecs dodger, extensive seating with underfloor storage, bimini top, bait station, swim ladder, and a full boat cover. Separate start and house batteries with isolator switches complete the package. A custom-built dual-axle multi-roller trailer is included. At $68,000, this is an exceptional, low-hours offshore machine ready for immediate adventure from Tauranga.
