Rigid hull inflatable boats (RIBs)—also referred to by the brand name Zodiac— are used for diving around the world. They are tough, durable and perform well everywhere. They are used on many liveaboard adventures, and to access local dive sites. RIBs come in many sizes, with larger boats generally being more comfortable. Regardless of the size or type of RIB, divers are responsible for knowing proper etiquette and safety procedures when diving from them.
