The Yellow Boats Welcome YB17 to the Fleet

Earlier this year, we launched YB17 – the newest edition to our fleet of customised rib boats manufactured to order by our sister company Ribcraft Middle East.

What makes YB17 so special?

Fully customised to match TYB corporate branding, the Ribcraft 11m PRO features a solid fiberglass deep V hull, heavy-duty Hypalon inflatable tubes and is powered by Twin Suzuki 300 HP outboard engines capable of reaching speeds up to 48 knots.

Featuring a Touring console, and seating arrangement to accommodate 18 passengers and 2 crew for, this flagship model can operate safely even in challenging weather conditions, ensuring TYB passengers always have a safe, thrilling and exhilarating experience.

For enhanced performance and reliability, the boat comes equipped with the latest generation Raymarine Navigation and Communications system including a multi-function GPS display and VHF Radio.

That personal touch

YB17 is lovingly named ‘Daniel’, in honour of our very own senior skipper, Daniel Zephyrin, who has been with The Yellow Boats for past 10 years! We could not think of a better way to show our appreciation for his hard-work and dedication, than by naming our newest rib boat after him!
