To purchase a bespoke Rib which will carry 11 passengers and provide the fastest rib ride experience in the world.
This project is to create RibRide Velocity a bespoke Rib which will travel at over 70 mph and will be the fastest Rib experience in the World.
In total the offer will be a 1 hour experience with a 30 minute shore side briefing and 30 minutes on the water running over 4 timed 1 mile runs in the sheltered Menai Strait.
The one mile journey will propel 11 passengers (min age 4) along a measured course, certified by the Maritime Coastguard Agency and local harbour authorities.
The ride will operate for around 130 days throughout the year at average 50% capacity selling to both their existing and new customers.
In collaboration with ZipWorld the business has agreed to use the Velocity name to link the activities with joint ticketing, marketing and transport. RibRide Velocity as the fastest commercial passenger vessel will help reinforce the Velocity name and its association to North Wales as the leading adrenaline adventure destination.
