ASIS Boats Delivers RIB in Record Time
ASIS Boats has built and delivered an 8m Elite Rigid Inflatable Boat for a big Dubai developer in a very short delivery time. This RIB was required urgently and has been fully manufactured, rigged and delivered in a period of 10 days only. Engineering, design and production are all performed in house giving ASIS Boats the capability to create new models in a short time and meet customer specific requirements. This also makes the delivery time fast since ASIS holds control of most of the elements that go on the boat.
Man Attempts to Sail From Dorest to Ireland in Inflatable Dinghy
A man’s been safely brought back to shore after attempting to sail from Dorset to Ireland in a 6ft inflatable dinghy. Portland Coastguard received a call just after 3pm yesterday from a range safety craft reporting concern for a man in an inflatable dinghy approximately 2.7 nautical miles south of Durdle Door. The man was heading for Ireland in a 6ft beach blow-up dinghy. With him were two paddles, one used as a mast accompanied by a plastic sheet as a sail, and the other used as a rudder to steer. Aboard was a limited amount of food and drink. Portland Coastguard put out a broadcast requesting further information about the dinghy.
