28 May 2025

Built for the demands of the commercial maritime sector.


Renowned for its rugged, high-performance RIBs, Protector Boats is proud to announce that the Protector 380 Targa will be on display at the Seawork - Europe’s leading commercial marine and workboat exhibition - 10-12 June 2025 in Southampton.

Built with commercial operators in mind, the Protector 380 Targa represents a benchmark in versatility, reliability, and offshore performance. Proven in some of the world’s most demanding marine environments, this vessel is trusted globally by coastguards, marine police units, pilot services, research institutions, and offshore support providers.

Designed for mission-ready performance

At 12.3 metres in length and engineered for agility, the Protector 380 Targa offers exceptional handling, control, and seakeeping in all weather conditions. With a deep-V hull constructed from military-grade composite materials and integrated foam-filled collars, it delivers unsurpassed stability and impact resistance - ideal for demanding commercial tasks such as patrol, transfer, surveillance, and emergency response.

The fully enclosed Targa cabin provides all-weather protection for crew and passengers, without compromising visibility or situational awareness. Multiple seating and deck configuration options ensure customisable layouts for operational flexibility.

Built for commercial utility

  • Heavy-duty Hypalon tubes with high-durability wear patches ensure resilience in constant operational use.
  • Commercial-grade fittings and hardware, including reinforced cleats, bollards, and lifting points.
  • A robust transom rated for twin or triple outboard setups, enabling speeds in excess of 50 knots when fully loaded.
  • Extended range fuel tanks support long-endurance missions, reducing downtime and maximising deployment efficiency.

Proven in the field

With a global fleet operating in sectors ranging from port security, coastguard and maritime police to offshore wind support, the Protector 380 Targa is a workboat that’s as tough as its mission profile demands. Its track record of minimal downtime, straightforward maintenance, and operator-focused ergonomics has made it a vessel of choice for agencies that value safety, speed, and strength in their fleet assets.
