zodiac powerboat

Zodiac has been mastering air and water exploration with a truly innovative approach since its creation in 1896. Zodiac finds its orgins in the “Zodiac airships and aviation French company”, specialized in the production of airships. In the 1930s Pierre Debroutelle, one of its engineers, invented one of the first prototypes of inflatable boats for the Aeronavale, who were looking for innovative and easy solution for military transport.

RYA Level 2 Zodiac Training

We train expedition guides to become rya certified zodiac drivers. ready for your job on an expedition ship..

Rib School Scheveningen is located at the beach of The Hague, 40 kilometers south of Amsterdam Schiphol Airport with a direct public transport connection.

During our RYA Zodiac boat training we teach individuals (max. 3 persons) how to properly operate and navigate a Zodiac boat. In the mean time you obtain the RYA Powerboat Level 2 certification. This certification is very often mandatory on board ships. Zodiac boats are inflatable, motorized boats which are commonly used for a variety of activities, such as exploring remote areas, rescuing people in distress, and conducting scientific research.

We own 2 identical Zodiac Milpro MK5’s at our home base in Scheveningen.

To provide a training for expedition staff under similar circumstances we have purchased 2 identical Zodiac Milpro MK5’s with Yamaha engine (tiller steering and hydraulic trim). The steering and boating characteristics with a tiller are slightly different than on a rib with a steering wheel and a throttle. We have put together a training where we teach you to be able to work as a RYA certified Zodiac driver on an expedition ship sailing in the polar regions. We know from personal experience what you can expect. Training typically includes instruction on safety procedures, navigation, and basic boat handling, as well as hands-on practice operating the boat in different conditions.

Since 2018 Rib School Scheveningen has started providing RYA Powerboating courses on expedition vessels sailing to both Antarctica and the Arctic. The increasing demand to certify staff on expedition vessels with the RYA Powerboat Level 2 was the immediate reason for this.

Electric RIBs boats and tenders

Nomad rib alu.

New tenders with a double floor, waterproof storage, and top-quality tubes!

OUR NAVIGATION PROGRAMS

Electric RIBs are a great choice for your sea trips. Equipped with a rigid hull, they ensure stability, safety and robustness against wind and waves, an important consideration when you know how unpredictable the weather can be at sea. They also have a foldable inflatable tube made of high-quality neoprene or PVC, which is resistant to corrosion and heat. They are designed to be particularly practical and easy to carry and store so that you can quickly set off on an adventure. The length of your boat will depend on the number of people on board and the intended use. Your boat’s electric motor is completely oil free, maintenance free and fuel free to preserve the environment and reduce maintenance costs.

Performance and innovation

The electric RIB is both light, fast and quiet. The electric motors and latest generation batteries ensure a long range, which varies according to speed and use, as well as faster acceleration to provide more thrills. For the eJET range, thanks to a turbine that draws in water and propels it quickly to move the boat forward, hydrojet technology provides a smoother, more dynamic and fun ride.

Comfort and versatility

With its rigid hull, your electric RIB offers you a large capacity and enough space on board for 4 to 6 people. Particularly versatile as a dinghy, diving boat, fishing boat, water sports boat or even pleasure boat, it will allow you to sail with friends or family and to store all the equipment you need. You will benefit from high-quality upholstery for your comfort, an anchor, a battery charger, navigation lights, a cup holder, courtesy lights, a storage box and a bench seat with backrest, among other things. Personalise the aesthetics and accessories of your boat as you wish.
