Southbound RIAD 9

At Southbound aesthetics are everything, if something looks good, the ergonomics and structural integrity will follow. This is typical of our design and construction. For this boat, the cooperation between the boatyard and Akesdesign created a superb RIB with foamfilled collar, fishing-ready deck, trailerable, made of aluminum 5083. Built to the toughest standards with safety and stability in mind, these boats are comfortable and have the ability to handle the roughest of Down South Australia weather & sea conditions. Southbound Riad 9 design is based on a Akesdesign hull with one of the largest deadrises available with a slamming zone, along with mellow reverse chines at the slamming point allowing the hull to displace the water highly efficiently.
