2012 Marlin 28 RIB – Twin Mercury 200hp Outboards

If you’re looking for a premium Italian-built RIB that combines exhilarating performance with exceptional comfort, this 2012 Marlin 28 deserves your attention. Renowned for its outstanding offshore capability, deep-V hull design and first-class build quality, the Marlin 28 offers a remarkably soft, dry ride while providing generous seating and ample storage for family cruising, watersports or long-distance coastal adventures.

Powered by twin Mercury 200hp four-stroke outboards with just 260 engine hours, this example presents an excellent opportunity to own a lightly used, high-performance RIB. The twin Mercury installation delivers effortless acceleration, confident offshore handling and economical cruising, making this a fantastic all-round package for both experienced boaters and those looking to upgrade into a larger RIB.

The spacious layout has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both comfort and practicality. Forward, the large U-shaped seating area converts into an expansive sunpad, while the aft cockpit provides generous seating around another sunbathing area, making the Marlin equally suited to entertaining friends or enjoying relaxed days at anchor. Wide side decks, substantial Hypalon tubes and a deep cockpit inspire confidence when moving around the boat, even in more challenging sea conditions.

At the helm, the ergonomic driving position offers excellent visibility and a commanding view ahead, with space for flush-mounted navigation equipment and engine instrumentation. Large storage lockers throughout the boat provide plenty of room for watersports equipment, safety gear and cruising essentials.

With its impressive offshore pedigree, stylish Italian design and low engine hours, this Marlin 28 is equally at home exploring the Channel Islands, crossing to the French coast or simply enjoying fast, comfortable days on the water.
