22′ Center Console RHIB

A quick, trailerable 6.6 m center console RHIB.

  • 21′-8″ × 8′-6″
  • About 45 kn (52 mph) as designed
  • Twin 140 hp outboards
  • 16° deadrise
  • 53 gal fuel
  • Trailerable

One of the smaller de Villiers RHIBs we build, and just as capable as the larger designs. The welded aluminum hull and polyurethane collar shrug off bumps and scratches from debris, other boats or a stony beach, and a high top speed and trailer-friendly size get you to the job quickly.

Designed by David de Villiers. Built in the USA by ARMOR Marine, the exclusive US builder of de Villiers designs.

The ARMOR standard

  • Every part modeled in 3D CAD and reviewed with you before plate is cut
  • CNC-cut parts, plate-marked with forming and welding instructions, so every hull matches the drawing
  • Formed on a 12′, 200-ton CNC press brake
  • Welded to written procedures, to AWS D1.2 and AWS D3.7
  • Marine-grade 5086 and 5052 aluminum throughout

Built in our 16,000 sq ft Anacortes facility, with a full-length 5-ton bridge crane and room for vessels up to 100′. Because every part is drawn in 3D CAD and CNC-cut, we're set up for multi-boat and fleet contracts as well as one-off custom builds.
Warranty: 10-year limited hull warranty for commercial use; lifetime limited hull warranty for recreational use.
