Hire Purchase
Full ownership at end of term. Fixed monthly payments. The standard product for RIB finance across all sizes and use cases. Fast decisions - often same day for established applicants.
Personal Loan for RIB
For RIBs below £15,000, a specialist marine personal loan may be more practical than a formal asset finance product. We advise on the threshold and the most appropriate structure for each enquiry.
Trailer Package Finance
Finance the RIB and trailer as a combined package. Many RIB buyers require a specialist trailer - the combined facility avoids two separate applications.

Frequently asked questions
What RIB manufacturers can be financed?
All major RIB brands - Williams, Ballistic, Ribeye, Brig, Zodiac, Gemini, Cobra, Scorpion, and others. New and used. UK-built and imported.
Is there a minimum loan for RIB finance?
Most specialist marine asset finance products start at around £10,000-£15,000. Below this, a personal marine loan product is typically more appropriate and faster.

Is RIB finance available to first-time buyers?
Yes - RIB finance is one of the more accessible entry points into marine finance. Personal credit history and a reasonable deposit are the main assessment factors for new applicants.
Can a commercial diving or safety RIB be financed?
