Marshall, 4 RIBs with Suzuki engine to simplify rates

The M4 in Touring version

If the Marshall brand doesn't mean much to you, it was one of the great leaders in semi-rigid vehicles from the 80s to the 90s, just like Zodiac. Relaunched by the Italian group Ribitaly S.R.L., the brand offers four models of semi-rigids with a very basic concept.

A simple and robust semi-rigid

Appeared in the 80's in Italy, Marshall produced up to 2?000 semi-rigid per year until the 90's, when it went bankrupt. The Ribitaly Group - which owns the BWA semi-rigid and BMA rigid hull brands - revived these mythical models.

In the range, there are four models with hypalon floats and polyester hulls, offered with several deck versions - Touring (sunbathing and aft bench seat) and Open - and Grand Bus (for professionals) for the two largest boats. On the program, no options and a simple and modular boat, already motorized in partnership with Suzuki.

" It will be a closed package with a price list of 20 boat/engine configurations. In total, there are 4 boat lengths offered in 2 or 3 deck versions (Open, Touring and Passenger) and with 2 or 3 engine versions" details Fabrice Boyer of Ribitaly.

If at the time the boats were offered in red, the shipyard opted for grey floats. With simple and already motorized boats, the price is very aggressive.
