Tiger Marine's TopLine 650 is getting a new version for 2026. This RIB, already well-known on the market, is back with a modernised model that retains the DNA of the original while incorporating the latest standards in comfort, design and performance.

This model stands out with its revamped aesthetics. The lines appear more taut, the centre console is more ergonomic and the relaxation areas have been redesigned for more fluid use. The upholstery has a contemporary style and meticulous finishes, while new colour combinations for the floats and hull expand the possibilities for customisation.

Dimensions and capacity

With a length of 6.85 metres and a width of nearly 2.80 metres, the TopLine 650 remains one of the most spacious RIBs in its class. Its large-diameter floats ensure stability and safety, even in rough sea conditions. Its capacity of up to 15 passengers makes it suitable for both family outings and professional use, particularly for day rentals.

Comfort-focused layout

The deck has been reorganised to optimise living space. A large sunbathing area extends to the front, while the rear features swimming platforms that extend the usable space. The central console offers a modular double seat and a functional steering station, complemented by a rear bench seat with folding backrest. The available options — roll bar, bimini top, synthetic teak-style decking and LED lighting — reinforce the high-end identity of this RIB.

Engine and handling

The TopLine 650 can accommodate an outboard engine of up to 200 horsepower, offering dynamic performance suitable for water sports such as skiing or wakeboarding. Thanks to a large-capacity fuel tank, it has a comfortable range. Its deep V-shaped hull ensures stable and safe navigation, maintaining a high level of comfort even at speed or in choppy waters.

A premium experience on a RIB

More than just a 6.5-metre boat, the 2026 TopLine 650 aims to provide a refined maritime experience. Its modular spaces, meticulous finishes and modern lines make it a RIB that combines elegance and versatility. Positioned as a compact day cruiser, it is aimed at both water sports enthusiasts and families looking for a reliable and comfortable boat.

Launch and availability

This new model will be available from the beginning of 2026. The first presentations are planned for major boating events, notably the Grand Pavois in La Rochelle, as well as several regional boat shows. This will be an opportunity for boaters to get a sneak preview of the developments in this iconic model from the Tiger Marine range.
