The Medline 9 is the perfect boat to share precious moments with your family and friends. The Medline is a true private oasis thanks to its transformable surface, which can be transformed into a sunbaking area, created for long day trips. The Medline range is part of the new generation of Zodiac boats, rigid hull inflatables orientated towards leisure. The layout allows the deck to transfer to a large sun lounger.

Zodiac is the French company that invented inflatable and rigid inflatable boats (RIB) with over 1,000,000 boats sold worldwide. Thanks to materials and manufacturing processes that are always at the cutting edge of technology, the hull has a rot-proof polyester internal structure, made up of a grid of longerons and stringers, ensuring a one-piece connection between the hull and the deck. This method provides overall strength and rigidity that is conducive to performance and resistant to all impacts experienced while boating, under all load conditions.

Zodiac Nautic has developed a unique industrial process for assembling its tubes to provide a perfect seal and a durable, almost indestructible quality of assembly, which is superior to the fabric's own strength, guaranteeing exceptional longevity and safety. Zodiac Nautic carefully selects the materials used to build its boats according to a strict set of specifications that guarantee an exceptional standard of quality, and is probably the only manufacturer to put its new boats through a rigorous series of sailing tests in extreme conditions.

The RIB concept is the true 4 x 4 of the seas. The unique combination of a very low centre of gravity, a deep V hull and a stabilising/shock-absorbing tube gives the RIB speed and crossing capabilities in rough seas with unprecedented comfort and safety. The Zodiac boat has an exceptional weight/surface area ratio, providing such buoyancy that it can carry considerable loads, ideal for day trips with large numbers of friends or family in complete safety. The tubes of a Zodiac boat have several compartments separated by watertight partitions. Thanks to its large air supply, the boat retains its buoyancy and remains conceptually unsinkable when fully loaded, even with a deflated compartment.

The low weight of Zodiac boats allows it to be launched easily. Without a berth, RIBs are as economical as they are practical. The tubes are permanent fenders and naturally act as shock absorbers. When manoeuvring on the water, if it comes into contact with the boat alongside or the dock at low speed, it will bounce off the obstruction without causing any damage.
