With our faster vessels, the AquaXplore RIB’s and Island Cruiser, we are uniquely placed to offer a range of trips/excursions to the remote islands of Rum, Canna, Soay & the Skye Cuillin, as well as charter trips over a wide area.
Our 'AquaXplore' RIB Boats

- Each boat has 12 cushioned comfortable individual seats with handrails, the front 3 being double seats for adults with younger children. All seats are mounted to the front of the skippers control console ensuring maximum comfort and a clear field of view for all passengers and crew.
- Powered by twin Yamaha V6 (250hp and 300hp) outboard engines capable of speeds in excess of 35 knots (40mph), with a typical cruising speed of c.25 knots. Cutting-edge 4 stroke technology ensures fuel efficiency and very quiet operation.
