Frustrated by a market filled with hard-riding, cramped rigid inflatables, Grant Parkins of GP Engineering decided it was time to design and build a RIB that would satisfy the most discerning customer = himself.

An avid outdoor sportsman and highly-experienced marine engineer, Grant knew what features were vital to ensuring high-performance handling, passenger comfort and safety, room for diving, fishing and hunting gear, and flexible configuration to accommodate various activities.

In 1996 he launched his first hand-crafted alloy-hulled rigid inflatable boat and he named her, Wavebreak.

Best RIB in its Class

GP Engineering has been designing and building Wavebreak Rigid Inflatables ever since. Through the years we have perfected the hull and incorporated innovative design features to achieve what many believe is the best RIB in its class.

Designed to provide optimal room and stability, Wavebreaks endure rugged treatment without compromising rough water performance or safety
