RIB on water
Private Division

Your RIB, in the hands of specialists.

We apply professional standards to your private vessel. Fewer problems, longer lifespan, and honest technical execution.

The reality of owning a RIB.

Maintaining a rigid inflatable boat is technically complex. Private owners often face recurring issues that generalist mechanics simply patch over, rather than solve.

BodhiNautic exists to eliminate these problems through correct technical execution.

Pressure Loss & Detachment

Tubes losing pressure overnight or handles peeling off due to incorrect adhesives or humidity control during previous repairs.

PVC Aging

Standard PVC tubes degrade rapidly under UV exposure, becoming sticky or brittle, drastically reducing resale value.

Recurring Failures

Small leaks or cosmetic issues that are "fixed" but return a month later, frustrating your ability to enjoy the season.

Contradictory Advice

Confusing guidance from general workshops who don't specialize in pneumatics, leading to unnecessary costs.

Core Expertise

Hypalon Neoprene Retubing

We completely replace your aging PVC or worn tubes with premium ORCA® Hypalon Neoprene. This is not a patch; it's a complete remanufacturing of the inflatable structure. We template your specific hull to ensure a perfect fit that outperforms the factory original.

Superior Durability

High resistance to UV, hydrocarbons, and extreme temperatures.

Custom Aesthetics

Choose from dozens of colors, fabric textures (Carbon, Matt), and handle styles.

5-Year Warranty

We stand behind our fabric and seam integrity.

Configuration, Upholstery & Refits

Is your layout working for you? We go beyond the tubes. We redesign seating layouts, upgrade upholstery with marine-grade Silvertex®, and modernize helm consoles. We coordinate the electrical and mechanical aspects to deliver a boat that feels brand new.

Upholstery Upgrades

High-density closed-cell foam that doesn't absorb water, covered in premium fabrics designed for marine environments.

Console & Electric

Re-wiring, dashboard modernization, and ergonomic console placement for better driving posture.

Synthetic Decking Solutions

Transform the look and feel of your RIB with advanced synthetic decking. Unlike traditional teak, modern synthetics offer zero maintenance, incredible grip (wet or dry), and cooler temperatures underfoot.

  • Zero maintenance: Pressure wash and go.
  • Cool-touch technology reduces heat absorption.
  • Custom patterns, borders, and logos available.
  • Stain resistant (oil, wine, fish blood).

Integrated Logos & Registrations

Stop using vinyl stickers that peel off after one season. We use laser-cut Hypalon bonded directly into the tube structure for your boat name, registration number, or custom logo.

The Process

We digitize your logo, laser-cut it from contrasting Hypalon fabric, and vulcanize/bond it permanently to the tube. The result is flush, smooth, and lasts as long as the boat itself.
