Walker Bay Launches the Generation Light 11-foot RIB
Walker Bay Boats have unveiled their the new Generation Light RIB (Generation LTE).
“As the name suggests this new line is lighter weight than the Generation DLX boats and is designed for customers who want all the luxurious style and performance of a Generation but can only accommodate a lighter tender,” said Michael Carroll, Director of Sales and Marketing for Walker Bay Boats.
The light weight and hull design means this boat only requires 20 HP to hop up onto a plane, so the price is more affordable. The boat is rated for maximum 30hp.
There are two versions of the boat available, the Base standard version and a Deluxe (DL) version that includes more classic features from the Generation series. The main difference between these two versions is that the DL has an integrated fuel system, deluxe bow step with backrest cushion, navigation lights and heavy duty stainless steel towing rings, davit lifting eyes and pop-up cleats.
Both versions have the option of different seating configurations with deluxe cushions. The three-seat option has a pedestal console base and open layout to give more leg room or if you prefer more space in the boat to move around. The four-seat seat option, which includes two cup holders and a cooler box in the seat beside the console, gives more seating and comfort. There are two large dry storage areas for gear, one in the bow and one under the driver seat. Both boats are available in either ORCA CSM® or German Made Heytex® PVC. www.walkerbay.com
