One of 575 dinghies, tenders and RIBs in the BuyDinghy Australian database, scored against club, rescue & commercial ribs rather than the market as a whole.

Fit scores

Each score is GALA's editorial score for that job, scaled by how well a 5.50 m hull suits it. A superb manufacturer still makes boats that are wrong for your job — the curve is what says so. How this is calculated.
