What is an rigid-hulled inflatable boat?
A rigid-inflatable boat (RIB) or rigid-hulled inflatable boat (RHIB) is a light-weight but high performance and high capacity boat constructed with a solid, shaped hull and flexible tubes at the gunwale. The design is stable and seaworthy. The inflatable collar allows the vessel to maintain buoyancy if a large quantity of water is shipped aboard. The RIB is a development of the inflatable boat.
Usage in NOAAS Thomas Jefferson
NOAAS Thomas Jefferson is a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration survey vessel.
She was originally built at the Halter Marine Shipyards in Moss Point, Mississippi as a survey ship for the US Navy. She was launched in February 1991 and commissioned as USNS Littlehales (T-AGS 52). The ship was transferred to NOAA in 2003 and was recommissioned as Thomas Jefferson on 8 July, 2003.
The ship is named for Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, in honor of his establishment of the Survey of the Coasts in 1807. The ship is 208 feet (63 m) long and has a beam of 45 feet (14 m). The ship has a total of 36 bunk spaces. Capacity for 22 people to eat at time can be found in the mess rooms.
The deck equipment features two winches, two fixed cranes, and a C-frame.
Thomas Jefferson has approximately 700 square feet (65 m2) of lab space. The ship is equipped with an intermediate depth multi-beam swath survey system. The vessel carries two aluminum survey launches equipped with multi-beam swath and single beam echo sounders and a hydrographic data acquisition system. There is an additional rigid-hulled inflatable boat serving as a fast rescue boat.
Aerospace/Aviation and Highly Technical Sewn
Aerostar products fall generally within two categories: Aerospace/Aviation and Highly Technical Sewn and or Sealed Products. Aerostar aerospace products range from our military and science parachutes, high altitude scientific and military balloons and airships, space inflatables, and interplanetary balloons. Our remaining technical products range
from Tethered Aerostats, Military NBC barrier protection to survival suits, inflatable military decoys, custom cold air inflatables, helium R/C (remote control) blimps, tethered helium inflatables, parade balloons and government or military uniforms. What makes
us the industry leader in the manufacture of this broad spectrum of products? It is our commitment to the highest quality products and over fifty years of experience.
Aerostar's roots are found in high altitude balloons. Scientists have used our high altitude free floating balloons to observe the atmosphere and explore the edge of space since 1956, when our parent company Raven Industries was founded. Precise design, proprietary film and sealing machines, technical manufacturing skills and reliability are the hall-mark of our Aerospace Products plant. Envision a critical science payload floating truly at the edge of space nearly 30 miles above the earth’s surface.
Tethered Aerostats (or blimps) are a turn-key product line offering large aerostats with a mooring trailer, winch and tether for an all-in-one aerostat solution. This large aerostat product line is an outgrowth of our more than thirty years of experience building blimps and airships. Payloads for communication, intelligence gathering, surveillance or reconnaissance can be flown on a tethered aerostat. Besides offering the turn-key aerostat systems we also offer a complete line of standard size blimps or aerostats and can create a custom size to suit your needs.
Custom Inflatables are the best way to get your product, company or sports teams noticed. A cold air inflatable is the easiest to use and to make lasting impressions and create brand identification with your target market. You can add in movement, smell, sound and other special effects to make your cold air inflatable absolutely unforgettable. Tethered Helium Inflatables are a great way to get noticed above the heads of the crowds. The durability and reusability of our helium inflatables is renowned worldwide. The helium retention of our balloons is phenomenal; many of our customers say there is no comparison!

We are a contract holder for various types of parachutes manufactured for the government as well as other types of parachutes. We manufacture any size or type of parachute from simple 50" payload retrieval to a 64' diameter G-12 Cargo Parachute to 160’ diameter heavy payload parachutes. Our military decoys which are used for training or deception look just like the real vehicle and they all include radar reflective signatures and can have heat signatures added to the design.
Aerostar is the birthplace of modern day hot air ballooning. and has ceased taking orders for their aircraft. Aerostar is committed to maintaining the airworthiness of their hot air balloons. Our support includes replacement parts sales, safety education and continued maintenance updates, bullentins and letters..

You will find a wealth of knowledge and wonderful picture examples of our tethered aerostats, high altitude balloons, cold air inflatables, tethered helium inflatables, protective wear and military products. Please enjoy!
Talk about drawing a crowd! This inflatable arch was the perfect tool for the World’s Best 10K race. A captive audience (those waiting to see who finished and who won the race) had their eyes glued on the arch.
That would probably not have been a big deal except for the fact that Autopistas, a creative race coordinator, had sold advertising space on the finish line icon.
Not only did the arch add to the excitement of the race’s finish, the archway also generated revenue for Autopistas and exposure for the race sponsors. In fact, another inflatable is in the works for next year’s event!
Excellent finish!
