    Advantages of the Rhino Workboat


    The Rhino 590 is designed and manufactured to provide a solution for a
    durable offshore workboat for commercial & military use. Traditionally
    rigid hull inflatables and aluminium boats have been used as workboats,
    but this HDPE boat has advantages over both in many situations.

    Description:

    The Rhino Craft is designed as a robust & virtually indestructible


    replacement to the inflatable rigid hull workboat for use in the offshore &
    marine construction environments.

    The boat is made exclusively from High Density Polyethylene (HDPE).


    The keel is 30mm HDPE plate, the pontoons are Ф 500mm x 15,2 mm
    W.T extruded HDPE pipe. The frames, decking & hull are made from 10
    mm to 25mm thick HPDE plate.

    The frames and bulkheads are cut by a Numerically Controlled water jet
    and all the components are extrusion welded together, forming a
    workboat with 7 watertight compartments.

    The deck is self-draining via 2 x 100 mm diameter “duckbill” drains


    through the transom.

    The boat is adequately powered by 1 x 36 hp diesel outboard. The


    transom has been designed to accommodate 2 x outboard motors. It is
    possible to install a water jet drive powered by a 145 hp diesel engine

    In case of damage to the boat, the HDPE can easily be repaired with an
    extrusion welder or molten plastic where no extrusion welder is available.
