Description

Rare Opportunity: High-Performance Eduardono RIB — Formerly Owned by Oracle Race Team

Price reduced! Set sail in style with Ocean Spirit, a powerhouse RIB built to the exacting standards of the Oracle Race Team. Designed to cut through serious chop at 40 MPH, this vessel is fast, agile, and reliable — perfect for anyone seeking a performance boat without the brand-new price tag.

Why Ocean Spirit Stands Out:

Proven Pedigree: Custom-built as Oracle’s chase boat — speed and agility you can trust.
Brand-New Power: Twin 2023 Yamaha 250s with 5” shaft extensions — less than 170 hours as of January 2025. Full repower included new throttle housing, shifting and battery cables, hoses, fuel lines, and steering controls. Still under warranty!
Top-Tier Tech: Outfitted with a large-screen Furuno Radar and GPS navigation system.
Spacious & Versatile: Rated for 32 passengers with comfortable row seating — ideal for sightseeing tours, scuba excursions, fishing charters, or marine research.
Well-Maintained:
Tubes redone in 2017 — still stiff and buoyant.
Fresh paint (January 2025): Inflatable Ablative Antifouling for the tubes, Commercial Marine Ablative Antifouling for the bottom, and Outdrive Antifouling for the outdrive.

Bonus: Comes with a triple-axle Bear trailer — two new bearings and newer tires — with registration in progress.

A brand-new version of this boat would cost three times the price. Ocean Spirit is packed with upgrades and ready for her next adventure.

Your next move? Whether you're launching a business or chasing your marine passion, this boat is your ticket to endless possibilities — both ocean and fresh water await.
