Wavebreak sets the standard for innovative, high-quality rigid inflatable jet boats. With safety as the primary driver, Wavebreaks incorporate features to ensure your adventures can be pursued without compromise.

From our strong yet lightweight alloy hulls to our renown dual-layer pontoon system, each and every Wavebreak is built to get you there and back.

Explore Places Others Wouldn't Dare

Wavebreak RHIBs let you do more things and explore more areas that you wouldn't dare approach in less durable boats.

Wavebreak hulls are constructed with the highest certified 5083 marine-grade alloy available to withstand conditions that are destructive to fibreglass and plastic hulls which can chip, graze and crack against rocks and other hard surfaces.

Strong yet lightweight hulls together with puncture resistant pontoons enable Wavebreaks to remain afloat and operational even when swamped.

Pontoons on Rivers?! No Problem!

Our RIBs feature heavy-duty inflatable butynol bladders encased and protected by superior polymer-coated outer bags. It takes practically an act of vandalism to puncture through the Wavebreak's protective outer bags and into its inner inflated bladders!

Our removable "dual-layer" pontoon system is just one of many important safety features of the Wavebreak's design.

Stability = Safety

The Wavebreak has excellent freeboard and a higher-weight carrying capacity than similarly sized craft. Unlike conventional boats the more weight being carried the more stable the craft becomes.

Perfect for coupling with lighweight motors

Looking for an inexpensive yet durable waterjet propulsion system for your jetboat? You've come to the right place!

When we started to design and build Wavebreak Jet RHIBs we found there were no jet intake and pump housing assemblies commercially available for small jet boats. We had no choice but to design and manufacture our own.

Easy to install, our proven jet propulsion assembly provides excellent acceleration, gives no cavitation and is now available for your own jetboat building requirements. It is designed to run between 5000 RPM and 10,000 RPM and is able to handle 60hp to 200hp - perfect for coupling with jetski motors, lightweight marinized motors, or even small car motors.
