2026 Zodiac Nomad 3.3 RIB Alu

The Zodiac Nomad 3.3 is an 11-foot aluminum-hull rigid inflatable boat built for demanding coastal conditions. Its marine-grade aluminum deep-V hull combines the tracking, stability, and ride quality of rigid construction with the buoyancy of inflatable tubes available in PVC or Hylalon/NEO. The boat weighs approximately 150 pounds and accommodates 4 to 5 persons with a capacity of around 1,200 pounds. It accepts a maximum 20 HP short-shaft outboard engine.

The Nomad 3.3 features a large watertight bow locker for anchor and gear storage and full keel protection for beach landings. The deck is open with a removable bench seat, and multiple lifting and towing points allow for davit or trailer deployment. The inflatable tubes measure approximately 17 inches in diameter with three air chambers for redundancy and safety.

This boat is suited as a yacht tender, harbor runabout, or compact exploration vessel for coastal work around the Salish Sea, Southeast Alaska, and Prince William Sound. Its aluminum construction and rigid hull design offer durability and handling advantages over roll-up inflatables, making it a dependable choice for weather-sensitive waters and remote anchorages.
