NAVY RIB prices start from: NAVY 4.80 from €13,924 + VAT (€16,987.28 incl. 22% Italian VAT) · NAVY 5.50 from €15,900 + VAT (€19,398.00) · NAVY 6.00 from €17,987 + VAT (€21,944.14) · NAVY 6.60 from €28,800 + VAT (€35,136.00) · NAVY 7.60 from €33,000 + VAT (€40,260.00) · NAVY 9.50 Cabin from €86,900 + VAT (€106,018.00). All prices are without the engine. Tell us which size you have in mind and we will prepare the complete figure for you.

The prices you see on the website are net: they are exclusive of VAT and do not include the engine, which is chosen separately according to how you intend to use the boat. Next to every price you will also find the amount with 22% Italian VAT already worked out. This applies to every NAVY RIB, from the 4.80 to the 9.50 Cabin.

No. The price of the RIB does not include the engine, because the engine is chosen to suit your needs: power, make, rigging. If you wish, we will prepare the complete figure for RIB plus engine straight away, with several engine options.

They mean receiving the boat ready to go to sea: hull with standard fit-out, outboard, console with wheel and steering, electrical system with battery, battery switch and navigation lights, fuel tank, upholstery, ladder and bilge pump. Tell us which model you have in mind and what kind of outings you plan: we will prepare the complete figure, if you wish with the most suitable engine, so you have the final price in front of you straight away.

Yes: on the range and price pages you will find every NAVY model with its «from» price, plus VAT and engine not included. For options and for a precise configuration we prepare an itemised quote. The quote for a NAVY RIB shows the price + VAT, the engine you have chosen and the cost of transport to your harbour.

On the RIBs up to the 7.60 the standard equipment is: a console complete with gauges, a roll bar with navigation lights, stern swim platforms, a steel stern ladder and standard upholstery. The Lusso upholstery is an extra. We quote the options item by item on the model you have chosen. The quote for your NAVY RIB lists them one by one, each with its price.

It depends on the size and on the use. With a 40 hp we recommend going up to the 6 metre; on the NAVY 7.60 we recommend 200/250 hp; on the NAVY 9.50 Cabin the configuration is twin outboards, and we decide the power together at the quote. The minimum, recommended and maximum power of each model is on its data sheet.

Honda, Yamaha and Mercury are the outboards we power the NAVYs with. You choose the make, together with the power. The three makes apply to the whole NAVY range: for your RIB we can compare several engine proposals, and the engine you choose is written in the quote, next to the price of the boat.

Yes, the RIB is sold with or without an engine. We assess the match with your engine on the chosen model: we need the data from its rating plate. The price of every NAVY RIB is already quoted with the engine not included. From the rating plate data we check that the power falls within the range stated on the model's data sheet.

The NAVY 7.60 can be fitted with a single or a twin engine installation, but we recommend the single engine: with twin engines you lose the stern swim platforms. Our sea-trial boat in Nettuno is in fact a NAVY 7.60 with a single outboard, a Honda 250: at sea you can feel how the NAVY RIB handles with a single engine before you decide.

Under Italian law the licence is tied to the engine, not to the boat: within 6 miles of the coast it is not needed if the engine does not exceed 30 kW (40.8 hp) and the displacement limits set by law (1,000 cc for a four-stroke outboard). Beyond 6 miles it is always required. A 40 hp engine can be fitted to the NAVY models between 4 and 6 metres: the 4.80, the 5.50 and the 6.00.

With the 40 hp we recommend boats of up to 6 metres: in the NAVY range, the 4.80, 5.50 or 6.00. It is the engine for going out without a licence within 6 miles of the coast, inside the Italian legal limits of 30 kW (40.8 hp) and of displacement; beyond 6 metres we do not recommend it. With a licence you can fit a more powerful engine, up to the maximum power on each model's data sheet.

Yes. The solutions with a 40 hp engine are also suited to business use: we prepare the quote in the company's name and a tailored configuration. For those who hire boats out in Italy, with an engine within the legal limits the boat can still be driven without a boat licence, and it reaches a wider clientele.

Yes. For licence-free hire in Italy the right models are the NAVY 5.50 or the 6.00 with a 40 hp engine; a single engine make for the whole fleet makes sense. We put transport on the bill: we just need to know where the boats have to arrive. The delivery schedule is agreed on order confirmation. Tell us how many boats you need, for which area and for what kind of use.

For a boat in stock, within 7 working days. For a made-to-order RIB up to the 7.60, about three months from order confirmation. For the NAVY 9.50 Cabin we set the lead times together on order confirmation. For a NAVY RIB in stock, the 7 working days are counted from order confirmation.

We build to order, so for next season we recommend confirming your order early: it is the way to secure your place in production. We do not promise dates we cannot keep: we tell you how things really stand at the time of the order. If you need it sooner, ask us whether there is a NAVY RIB in stock in the size you are looking for: availability changes often, and we tell you at the time.

Yes. We deliver to the harbour you name or straight to your home, and the cost of transport is written into the quote. Delivery to Sardinia is handled by us too, and we take care of everything needed. We organise the delivery of your NAVY RIB throughout Italy, islands included.

The showroom is in Aprilia (LT), between Rome and Latina, and we do sea trials in Nettuno: we set the day together, by appointment. If you are far away we can also start with a video call. In the showroom you can look at a NAVY RIB up close, on land and without hurry: the ORCA fabric of the tubes, the fibreglass of the hull, the stitching of the upholstery.

Yes, in Nettuno. For sea trials we have our own NAVY 7.60 powered by a Honda 250. Those interested in the cabin model can try the 7.60 in the meantime, to judge trim, handling and solidity. To book a sea trial of a NAVY RIB, a WhatsApp message or a phone call is all it takes.

Yes. Every model has its own page with gallery and data; we send the data sheet on request. On the NAVY model pages you will find dimensions, capacity, recommended power, standard equipment and the «from» price + VAT, engine not included. If you need the data sheet for a comparison or for a leasing application, tell us and we will send it for the model you are considering.

No: we handle sales directly from Aprilia. You do not need to look for anyone locally: everything goes through us, from configuration to delivery, anywhere in Italy. For your NAVY RIB you therefore have a single point of contact: configuration, quote, transport and delivery are all handled by us from Aprilia (LT).

We are happy to talk about it in person: we invite you to Aprilia and to a sea trial in Nettuno. To start, tell us whether you have a display space or a pontoon and how many boats you handle each season. From there we begin to talk about the NAVY RIBs that suit your area.

In three steps: a deposit on order confirmation, stage payments during production, the balance on delivery. The documents are the deposit invoice, the sales contract and the delivery report. Payment is by bank transfer. Before order confirmation, and therefore before the deposit, you already have the quote for your NAVY RIB in writing.

Yes: the boat can be financed, including through marine leasing. We discuss it together with the quote. You will not find instalments or interest rates on the website, because they depend on the financing application: they become visible once the application is set up on the NAVY RIB you have chosen, with its price + VAT and the engine.

Yes: every NAVY model can also be bought through marine leasing. We prepare an offer with the data sheet and the amounts, ready to be forwarded for the application. If you are buying for a business, we make out the offer for the NAVY RIB to the company, like any quote.

It is not a formula we have on our price list. We can, however, compare for you an outright purchase, a purchase with trade-in and a financed purchase. For your NAVY RIB we write the comparison of the three routes next to the quote, on the same model.

We are glad to assess a used boat as a trade-in. To give you a serious figure we need the year, where the boat is kept and a few photographs: tubes, deck and engine, with its rating plate data. We write the proposal for your used boat next to the quote for the new NAVY RIB, so you can see straight away the difference to cover.

Yes: we build boats to measure, so we are happy to take on modifications. You choose the hull colour (white or black), the tube colour, synthetic EVA teak or natural teak on request, and Standard or Lusso upholstery. With the 3D configurator you can put your boat together and send us the configuration. Special requests too, such as room for diving cylinders or a relocated console, we study with our workshop.

We build every boat to order, one at a time, with no assembly line. From the 4.80 to the 7.60 the tubes are in ORCA fabric by Pennel & Flipo, 1.3 mm Hypalon-neoprene; the NAVY 9.50 Cabin also has ORCA tubes by Pennel & Flipo in Hypalon-neoprene. The hulls are in fibreglass with increased thickness. We are so confident in our work that we offer up to 15 years' warranty.
