Zodiac Cadet RIB ALU 300 Light – 9-Foot 10-Inch Aluminum Hull PVC RIB

Zodiac Cadet RIB ALU 300 Light 9′ 10″ – High-Performance Light Aluminum RIB

Overcoming the limitations of heavy fiberglass RIBs, the Zodiac Cadet RIB ALU 300 Light offers 9′ 10″ of durable deck space in a 95 lb package. This model is specifically engineered for American yacht owners who require a larger tender for a crew of five but must keep weight to a minimum for manual lifting or light-duty crane systems. For the USA boater, the 300 Light provides a stable, high-performance aluminum platform that is impervious to the impact and abrasion of rugged American shorelines, ensuring a safe and reliable transit from the mooring to the dock.

Adhering to Zodiac’s legendary safety standards, the 300 Light features multi-chambered 1100 Decitex fabric and a robust aluminum hull powder-coated for longevity in high-salinity environments. The V-hull geometry provides excellent sea-keeping abilities in tidal currents, while the 15 HP max power rating delivers the necessary thrust for fast-planing under load. For the American market, this model represents the ultimate “Lightweight-Heavy-Duty” hybrid, offering a durable and easily managed tender that excels as a primary transport vessel for coastal families across North America.
