    What is the weight of the Pulse 63 electric RIB?
    815kg (including the batteries).​
    From Coding & LCA - RS Electric Boats https://www.rselectricboats.com/coding-lca/
    Design CAT C
    Capacity 6 Persons
    From Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Electric RIB from RS Electric Boats https://www.rselectricboats.com/eco-sustainability/
    PET Core
    Natural Flax Fibre
    Recycled Carbon Fiber (presumably chopped rather than continuous)​

    We're going for a capacity of 8 or 9 persons on an 8m waterline boat with the same motor and about the same range.
    Seems on target to me; steady as she goes.
