What is the passenger capacity of a 7M RHIB?

The passenger capacity of a 7-meter rigid-hulled inflatable boat (RHIB) is generally designed to accommodate up to 18 passengers. This capacity is influenced by the boat’s size, design, and the intended operational use. RHIBs are known for their stability, speed, and maneuverability, making them suitable for various missions, including search and rescue, patrol, and transport duties.

In practical scenarios, while the boat may physically fit more individuals, safety regulations and optimal weight distribution limit the effective and safe number of passengers to ensure stability and performance. Therefore, a capacity of 18 passengers is established as a standard to optimize the vessel's operational effectiveness while adhering to safety protocols.
