Nuova Jolly Prince 33CC RIB Walkthrough

When he wanted to prove the capability of his Italian-built RIBs, Nuova Jolly CEO Teo Aillo went very big. Back in 2022, he loaded up one of his 38 Foot Aretusa RIBs with 2000 gallons of fuel and set out from Cabo Verde aboard a boat that now weighed as much as if she carrying over 80 passengers. Six days later, that boat arrived in French Guyana after a successful crossing. Aillo puts that same engineering into the 50-plus-knot Prince 33. Take a tour from Fort Lauderdale.
