Stingher 10m

The Stingher 10 metre RIB is the latest edition and flagship of the Stingher range.

Overview

The end user was firmly in Giuseppe’s mind when he built this RIB. Designed from the knowledge he has gained almost 25 years boat building, and with his passion for perfection, the Stingher 10 metre is testament to his goal.

The Stingher 10 metre is equally at home being used a large family sports RIB, as it is when chosen as a Super Yacht tender. The position of the helm unit is extremely comfortable with its side bolsters giving you very good lateral support, and houses the electric fridge and stainless steel sink. However there are several styles and types of seating available including drop-out bolster seats and Ullman sprung seats.

The main console not only has lots of room for your instruments and gauges on its Carbon fibre facia, it also has a large door in the front, with built in seat, that opens up to reveal an toilet area with foldable bench seat that doubles up as a changing room or lockable storage area.

The front sundeck has four huge lockers, and the infill’s can be changed to a table to give an eight seat dining area, complete with remote control deck lights and speakers. To further enhance your comfort there is a full remote control sound system with CD/radio/ipod connector.

It is fitted as standard with an electric windlass, electric shower, bathing platform, bathing ladders, and flexi teek decking. The RIB will take up to twin 350hp Mercury Verado SCi engines which are flyby wire. We then fit a three battery system combined with a Solar panel for total piece of mind. The All round white and navigation lights are LED with up to 4 miles visibility.

The 10 metre was tested, at the same time as the Scorpion Sting 10m Cabin Rib and the Hunton 904 inboard by Paul Lemmer on behalf of RIB International in a very choppy force 7 in the Solent. On the day it was the only RIB to achieve 50 knots, whilst at the same time remain dry other than side spray from the wind, something that he said could not be boasted by the other Ribs that day. It was rated by him as one of the most capable 10m hulls available. This RIB really is a true cruising machine.

We recently had a 10 metre fitted with twin Mercury 350 Sci engines. Capable of 63 knots, and developed by seven times World Champion Neil Holmes.

Described by Alex Smith, editor of Sports Boat and Rib magazine, in a test as a Renault Espace with a Ferrari engine,.. what we have here is a fearsomely good boat that I have no doubt with its breadth of abilities and its aggressive pricing will see it toppling some very big names in the World of luxury Ribs.

As further testament to its exceptional build quality, equipment levels, comfort, and sea handling, it is one of only four RIBs in the over 9 metre category to be recommended by Rib International in the 2009 Super Yacht Tender buyers guide. The Stingher was the largest of the four recommended, and was the least expensive, with the most expensive being almost double the price.
