Galaxy Boats supplies European manufactured rigid inflatable boats (RIBs) built specifically for commercial use. From rescue boats to police RIBs, every vessel in our Trident Range is engineered to deliver strength, performance, and reliability in the most demanding conditions. These are not reworked leisure craft – they are purpose-built commercial RIBs, designed from the keel up for operational roles across patrol, military, and emergency response sectors.
Built for Demanding Roles: From Rescue Boats to Military RIBs
As a commercial boat supplier in the UK, we understand the need for a heavy duty RIB that can perform without compromise. Whether used as a police RIB, man overboard recovery boat, or sea safari vessel, the Galaxy Trident is built for serious work. With a deep V hull and robust construction, these RIBs deliver reliable handling in rough weather and maintain speed and control during urgent response scenarios.
The Advantages of a Foam Collar RIB for Commercial Use
When inflatable tubes reach their limits, a foam collar system makes all the difference. Our ToughTek foam collars provide enhanced durability and impact resistance without sacrificing buoyancy. They’re puncture resistant, sectionally bolted, and easy to maintain. In the event of damage, a panel can be unbolted and replaced with minimal downtime – a critical feature for operators who rely on daily availability.
This solid collar RIB solution has been developed in collaboration with real-world fleets operating in rescue, patrol, and wildlife tourism. The cushioned, rugged profile offers practical protection during docking, boarding, and repeated close-quarters manoeuvres.
Choosing the Right Commercial RIB for Your Sector
Each custom RIB design is tailored for durability, ease of service, and sector-specific performance. Whether you're running blue light response patrols or wildlife tours, we work with you to ensure your vessel meets the needs of your crew and mission.
