The Zodiac Medline 9 is a RIB (Rigid Hull Inflatable), combining a fiberglass hull with an inflatable collar to create a boat that, with a LOA of 29’ and 10-foot beam, is stable under virtually all conditions. But unlike no-frills military RIBs, the Medline 9 is built for comfort, with a cabin featuring a toilet and optional bed, generously-sized seating areas forward and aft, a kitchen area with a sink and room for a stove and refrigerator, under-seat storage, and even USB chargers to keep phones and other electronics fully-charged. Power options include a single 450 hp outboard or twin 350 hp outboards, either fed by a 105 gallon fuel tank for extended cruising range. The helm features bolster seating for three, unobstructed 360-degree viewing, an arch with a retractable top, a joystick for easy maneuvering, and Garmin electronics; Zodiac-Nautic.com.
