Research record, not a complete review

This variant remains in the database so buyers can identify the range, but its current public evidence is too limited for a search-indexed review. Use the Australian-built configurations range guide and confirm the missing figures with the supplier.

One of 580 dinghies, tenders and RIBs in the BuyDinghy Australian database, scored against club, rescue & commercial ribs rather than the market as a whole.

Where this model fits

At 3.80 m, this model sits at the larger end of the club, rescue & commercial ribs. That helps define the comparison set, but storage, total package weight and local support still decide whether it belongs on a shortlist.

Maximum power is not recorded in our source data, so it should be confirmed before choosing an outboard or valuing a package. Passenger capacity is not recorded here; ask for the current capacity plate or manufacturer documentation rather than relying on an advertisement.

Before you request a quote

  • Ask the seller to identify the exact NAIAD 3.8 model year and included configuration in writing.
  • Obtain a written hull weight and clarify whether the floor, console, battery or other removable equipment is included.
  • Request the complete delivered price, including unavoidable freight, preparation and registration costs.
  • Confirm warranty and parts support for this exact model under NAIAD's current Australian arrangement.

Fit scores

Each score is NAIAD's editorial score for that job, scaled by how well a 3.80 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.
